Hi Sharon

Ta for wanting to buy the cards hun :)  No probs with payoing by chq. Just go through ordering them in the shop then select chq payment at the checkout. It will give you all the details where to send it etc  :)

I love your ideas  ;D
The only things that would be difficult for me to do here (on me injet printer) would be the Post it pads  and the Note pads with every page with  a printed logo on (like a background) cause it would mean mass printing in a pad shape with a logo so expensive for me to do. I can only print off individually here so printing say 50 thin sheets then trying to put it in a pad shape is difficult. I could look into printing costs for these items but unless you order in mass it is also expensive sadly but i will have a look  ;D

What we can do is ............
Cat bowls :)
i have here a sample of one where i can insert a personalised logo or persoanlised design in the bottom center circle. It is a touch plastic one with a rubber non slip bottom.  They come in two sizes.  This is a product to be added to the shop in next couple of weeks.  ;D This wasn;t one of the 1st products in cause i am not sure if people prefer ceramic food bowls to touch plastic ones?
Ruth also had a look into ceramic ones where she would go to a clay studio and produce them there and we can still look in to this but it would be one Purrs design not personalised.

Cat feeding Mats :)
Hee hee already in hand  :evillaugh:. I am waiting for the suppliers of the mouse mats frames to get in a much bigger size and then yes we can also do personalised feeding mats.  ;D They will be the same material as the mouse mats which are heat resistant by the way so you can actually use them as place dinner mats too :) :)  
Would anyone be interested in having say a set of 4 place mats with your cats on?  You could have one of each or 4 of the same pic.  :)   If so i can get that product in the shop in next few weeks.

Personaized address labels
Yeap no probs there, i can print them off in sheets that you peel the small label off, so will design a label of a Purrs own logo and personalised ones and pop them in the shop in next few weeks  ;D

As the Xmas cards have come out soo very well ( i have to admit they look very professional) will will def have persoanlized other cards like birthday ones and general blank ones for all occassions. :)
Once i get the diary fini, i can do some more stuff for the shop :)


Steve did a birthrday pressent for my dad at the weekend. They went on a break and my dad had a go on a horse and loved it so Steve thought of a design with him and a horse and came up with this so we made a mouse mat for him :)  Dad's a hairdresser so hence his new name and Steve also popped his wife in too! Ha ha he loved it  ;D

Firstly i want to buy some Purrs cards but want to send chq as my credit card has had a bashing lately.. Can someone tell me where to send it pls.

Also can we have some envelope savers with Purrs design on you know the sticky post it type things that are good for recyling envelopes.

I saw today also personalised cat food mats.. What a good idea.

Some plain cards would be great as well..

Labels perhaps for envelopes.

Notepads perhaps A5 size

Cat bowls also

Just a few suggestions.. I usually just go and buy nice stationary but it would be so nice if we had something for the charity..

Thanks

Done ya Cards Helen. I love doing them cause i get to look at such adorable babes all night  :Luv:  :cuddle:  :evillaugh: The shop just aint for the rescues ya know!!  :evillaugh:

I use photoshop to do all the purrs graffics wirth me hubby Chappie who is our designer and he gives me the design template and i do all the rest, so i can pop 4 pics together. They would be smaller than if just having one or two on the cards but it can be done :) I can have a go to see if you liked the look of them in the card and if ya do you can order them.

We will be having some more personalized stationery up in the shop ie birthday and other greeting cards, fun gift certificates and if anyone has any ideas what they would like their babes on as stationery, i would love to hear and we maybe able to do them in the shop. :)

oooh I want some of these, first I'll have to work out how to get all four in one place and then how to load a photo on the pc so simple really!

Do you know anyone with photoshop?  You can get them to put 4 pics into one with a face in each corner so that it still fit in the circle nicely.  I would offer but I don't have photshop!                                                                                 

My pic is long and thin so not ideal for the cards as we had to sacrifice their paws but it was just too cute not to have as the pic  :Luv:

Couldn't resist ordering some of these, Max always sends cards anyway, so to have some personalised ones will be supercool  :wow:

Have also pre-ordered a diary as well, easier to do it all in one go.

My credit card is sooo going to hate me this month  :evillaugh:

Good point hun

Yes Merry Christmas from is set on the card and you have the option of the cat's name or any name you like (ie the "name" can be "from us all" etc)  and below the name you can have a short caption as weel if you like.

Ie
Lucas & Riley

"the lads"

or any short caption you like.

It's not clear your right hun so will change the description asap.

Sorry Tan, I'm being a bit thick  :Crazy:

Just went to odrer these and I want them to be like the example cards with Gizzy on ie.  'Merry Christmas from' and then 'Lucas & Riley' at the bottom.  On the order form you specify your cats name in the first box and then you choose a 'short caption'.  Is the 'Merry Christmas from' already there automatically or do I put that in as my short caption?
