conference weekend project

this is what i am spending my conference weekend doing.

b asked me to make a invite card for his manager's outing in november. he said that i needs to be done by sunday so he can get it to his boss for next week. and since he will be in utah next week...he has given me 3 days to make 30 cards. no problem, i thought.

so i sat him down with a binder with sample cards and my cards box that i keep all my card swap cards in...that's a lot of 'cards' in one sentence....anyway....and he chose...i think it's ashley's 'pull' card with all the flaps. great. so i went out yesterday to find some paper...i wasn't sold on that card yet so i played with other options. i mean come on...30 of those flap cards? anyway i chose a piece of paper at michael's, $0.25 sale on all paper, and went home to play. i ended up doing that card...because b really liked that one...and really there's not a whole lot i won't do for my cute husband...
after typing all the info into computer,
printing it in the right dimensions,
a TON of custom cutting, thanks b,
stamping and antiquing around the edges...
i created an assembly line for production.

step ONE


step TWO


step THREE
and here is the FINISHED product. only 25 more to go. hurray for me.
