Graduation Time!
When you think of graduating students, you probably always envision spring. But there are a number of college students that graduate at the end of the fall semester.
This post is to show off a graduation announcement that is a step above your typical card. This is a 5x3.5 inch black gatefold with a shimmering champagne printed card, complete with a matching champagne seal. The printed design is simple, with the graduating year inside a graduation hat.

Happy Holidays!
Looking forward to the end of the month and holiday festivities!
The Save the Date Originals 2010 holiday cards are still rolling out. I couldn't decide upon a design this year, and ended up sending out a handful of different cards/magnets/designs.
Much work is to be done on the website over the coming months and year.
Did you know? Shaped cards are now available. Circles, of course, but also ovals, diamonds, sandals, hearts, stars and more. A section with examples will be available at some point in the future.
I hereby vow to have the holiday card section updated with some ideas/examples well before next December.

Newspaper announcement save the date magnets
This idea came from a customer asking me to scan in her engagement announcement from the local newspaper, and print it on a magnet.
It turned out to look a lot better if I re-typed the wording and had her email me the photograph she wanted to use.
Why not turn that newspaper idea into a save the date magnet?
Below is a photograph of a 2.75x6 inch non-glossy magnet designed to look like a newspaper engagement announcement:

Winter Cards & Magnets
Tis the season. If you mail out holiday cards yearly, you will soon be at work addressing them.
This website still does not have a fleshed out holiday section; Nonetheless, each year I turn out a number of holiday, Christmas, winter, and/or New Year themed cards.
Sometimes they are traditional:
Sometimes they are a little more fun:
And sometimes, I find myself working on a number of magnetic projects needed in time for the holidays. Customers are looking for a variety, as usual. Customers might be looking for save the date magnets to include in their Christmas card mailings. Customers might be looking for photographic magnets to send to family.
In some cases, people are just looking for a cute favor to hand out.
Check out this 4x3 inch magnet:
Rarely do I offer non glossy magnets, and this is one such example. While it may be non-glossy, this example is made out of a nice cream metallic paper. This particular magnet can be ordered as few as 5 at a time. Click here to order 10 on etsy.
Whether you are looking for cards or magnets, you definitely want to place an order before the first week of December passes. Now is the time.

World of Warcraft (WOW) Themed Save the Date
At long last, a customer emailed to ask where the promised World of Warcraft themed save the date design was. These players will be married next October 2011, and wanted a fun save the date magnet.
The couple went with the small 3.5x2 inch size, which meant keeping the design fairly simple. Their idea was to try to make the design look like one of the Achievements you can get in game after completing certain tasks. In this case, the achievement is "Shackled".
Too fun!
But this design looks like it is for members of the Horde! What about the Alliance?
Check out this version of the warcraft save the date theme, for a larger 5x3.5 inch card:
Pricing available here: http://www.savethedateoriginals.com/details/STDC10A.php
This is just one idea; No doubt WOW players have other good ones. Feel free to have me (Angela) work on something else for you.
