New Website

I am spending my day off focusing on "the business." So I went and bought a domain name since all the county stuff is official.

minordetailsdesign.net

There isn't anything there, yet. But it's hosted... and there will be something there eventually. Woo hoo!

Vendor Rave: Tower Graphics

So, I swung by the old Alphagraphics building on J Street to get Shirley's wedding invites trimmed and the envelopes finished. To my chagrin, Alphagraphics is no longer Alphagraphics. The owner broke away from the chain and is now Tower Graphics. I went in 30 minutes before closing and Bob, the owner helped me, no questions asked. Even brought me to the back of the shop to make sure all the pieces were cut correctly. (Very glad I did because some pieces were backwards... something Kinkos wouldn't catch! Ugh!)

When it came down to the envelopes, he recommended offset, which blew the budget. So we tried running the envelopes at the laser printer in the front office. They worked, so we hung out and fed the envelopes through. All before 6:00. I paid... and left. Very nice. None of this "it'll be ready in 48 hours" thing.

Shirley & Jody - Invites

Woo! This project is approved! Done! Now on to printing. Printing will be done by both moi and a little bit of Kinkos action. (Ugh!) Hopefully I can sneak into Alphagraphics on the way home tomorrow, as they are my first choice. Here is a sampling. (Note, my friend's last name is not Sangria... but it sounds cool.)
