I'm full...I hate turkey...I hate dressing...even ice-cream doesn't turn me on...ouch, I love ice-cream (they better have ice-cream in heaven or I'm not going...wink)

Ok, opportunity, ;)

I got two pieces in Wednesday, a Bush signed invitation card from the white house, with gold seal, and one from a polictical organization, 8 1/2x11, with a 3/16" gold trim around the text.

The Customer wants the one with the gold trim just copied, since it was sent to a co-worker, this is simple except for the gold trim?

The white house (invitation) card with photo picture on front of card and the invitation text with gold seal at the top is inside and has both George Bush and his wife's signatures.

Is there a source for buying stock with the gold trim and/or white house seal already on it or do you have a source for these or do them yourself, if yes, how?

Customer wants to see both sides of the card, front and inside and I would rather use a copy and not the original.

Hope all (you) my best friends had a great Turkey Day :D
 
Cliff,

There is a gold film that will stick to any image printed on a laser printer when passed through the printer on a second pass. Its been so long since I had a test package that I can't remember the brand name. Maybe someone else does?

Pat :D
 
There used to be, and maybe still is, a product called Lazer Tag that was simalar to what Pat mentions. A graphic designer would know.
 
Foils (gold, silver, color)that will transfer to a toner image using a copying machine are available from a several sources -- one is Paper Direct at:
http://www.paperdirect.com

Look under "Seals/Foil/Ribbon".

These may also be available form Staples, Office Depot, or the like.
