I've got an order which seems to be draggingI have this order which was placed over a year ago, deposit placed etc BUT then I didnt hear anything from the Bride. I texted, emailed, tried ringing but zilch up until the end of Feb when she said she needed everything by the end of March. There were changes etc.ANYWAY I'm now trying to get my head into them. So I thought I'd do what I did on fetti all those yonks ago, and use this to keep my count and try and urge me to work quicker!  80 Day Invites 35 done 45 to do
120 Evening Invites 0 done 120 to do
200 RSVP Cards 33 done 167 to do
100 Thank You cards 42 done 58 to do
These are the images http://s268.photobucket.com/album...tationery/Lindsay%20and%20Robert/ The customer decided not to have placecards and Order of the days (YET!) |

Eeek! That's not much notice! Love the design on the invites, photobucket's died now though...only got to pic 2! | ||

People like that deserve not to have their invites!!
Very good of you to work so hard on it to get it done for them. Perhaps you could agree with them to only do her invites RSVPs so she can get them soon, and then send the Thank you cards on at a later date? |
||
| MrsCW |
To be honest, the Thank You cards fit perfectly down the side of the A3 card so I print them against the Invites.
I have a A3 printer so I can make best use of the paper AND it means I can do more types of things too. But yes, I was livid! I can do the stuff easily enough BUT the umpfh aint quite there! |

I'm sorry, I completely forgot to say v funky design!!!
After the order's been sent out, send another email saying that you're doing an offer on - laminated table names/numbers with a poem on the back, lables for favours and placecards to match her stationery theme

Cripes, you are speedy!
Go missus go! *Brings out pom poms to cheer you on* I so nearly called them tampons then!!! 
|

| MrsCW |
You total donut!!! It's all down to having a system. I'm hoping I have them finished by this evening! I always like to get an order out early than requested (always look good to the customer me thinks). THEN, I can do the rest of MrsG2B's jewellery for her bridesmaids, her secret gift from me (wish I could reveal to you all!), then the rest of Dawn's screenprints for her info sheets for her to approve before I do her a sample THEN the remaining stuff I have left to do is Dawn's bridal jewellery bits and accessories and the same for Adel. |
