including :

two greeting cards : both of which are fairly non-specific :

and a set of 4 notecards, 2 yellow and 2 green, with envelopes, titled :

“ZAC EFRON HUBBARD”

sketchbook :

inspired by : the music of the Young Turds

side project

my very very very small publishing company, House of Buttsavage, has just released a new book of poetry written by myself and one PJK , entitled: Zero On The Shirt of an Indian Reckless Who We All Met Before & Dated That Girl.

they are all being mailed away to favorite people.

i am getting married in 86 days…

and while the invitations are working themselves out, with a lot of lovely help, i thought i’d show the save the dates i made..

it was a really big project. the designs were scanned in to the computer and then printed onto cardstock from paper source {my favorite store of all time}

once everything was printed (it took some time to get the printer to accept printing onto A2 and 4bar sized cards) the text card got trimmed and attached to a brown card WHICH was then attached to the foldover.

the text itself was really fun to do,

as was addressing the envelopes, also from paper source. despite all the layers, the final cost of these was really not too bad, something like 86¢ each.

i’m sort of sad that the save the dates and invitations are already designed, its a pretty fun process, you can really do anything.. i’m excited to make the programs!

i actually think the creepiest part of the movie The Wicker Man is the part where the little girl is painting a picture of a hare. that scene is constantly playing itself in my head and creeping me out.
