Title: A3 Printed calendar for 2009 and 2010
Post by: Tan on May 09, 2008, 23:43:48 PM
Elllllllllllloo

It's that time of year again where we ask for pics of your wonderful cats to go into our printed project fundraiser.

It's gonna be a 2009 and possibly also 2010 A3 calendar. It will be a diff design inside than the brill 2007/2008 one we have already have but with the same outer Purrs logo cat.  It depends on how many pics we get if we do one year or a double sided one with two years. 

Fantastic keep sake of our babes and make great gifts for all!!

We want to sell as many as we can to raise loads of dosh for an cat rescue yet to be decided by rotation of our Independent rescues on our fund list and hopefully raise as much as we have with our last two projects.   ;D

Soo if ya want ya babes on the new Purrs professionally printed project this year, i'm gonna need your babes photos.  :print: 

One photo per cat only please, pics of two or more cats together are allowed.Pictures need to be of good quality and decent size so they come out well on print.
We will also need your name, cats name and a caption of up to four words (if long words then will have to be 3 words, if short words can be 5 words max)
Send pic as an attachment to purrs email - purrs@purrsinourhearts.co.uk with names and captions in the email message. If sending more than one cats pic in the same email, please make sure the pics are named with each cats name.  :)

Get snapping :pic: and the deadline to get the pics to me before i start designing the calendar is JULY 20TH

I am waiting for printing costs from the printers at present and as soon as i hear, i will post the cost of buying each calendar. The cost will include the donation to the rescue, printing, UK postage and envelope, and will be between £8 -£15 each depending on how many years we have in it.

A totally unique one off item, Nothing like it is available in shops and it will have your very own cats on it!  And fantastic quality as anyone who has a current one will tell ya :) :)

are you still collecting pics or have I missed the boat?

The boat is sailing towards the shore but there's still time... Pics must be in by July 20th - we had a diary last year and a calendar the year before that.  The quality was better than anything I've seen in the shops and of course features our very own cats so make sure you don't miss the boat!

Title: Re: A3 Printed calendar for 2009 and 2010
Post by: Tan on October 10, 2008, 22:21:51 PM
Almost there Yayyyyyyyyyyyy  ;D   Will have all the pages up for viewing next week and in the shop to order.
 The printing has gone up a little and the postage has gone up 20p so the total price this year will be £15.40 per calendar (incls UK postage and packing).  That is great value for a TWO year /2009 & 2010) Huge A3 size (42cm x 29.7cm) and not availble anywhere ielse as it has all your personal cats on it with names and captions.   192 pics of them ;D

Everyone need to check the pages before we send it off for printing so i can amend any errors (like huge speeling ones)  :naughty: 
Watch this space  ;D :evillaugh:
