Mrs.G - so how many does that make it now?
I think we're up to 18 now. And I know others are coming.
Damn,
tiara, so many questions. :lol: I will, of course, post pics of the finished project once it's completed. But just to hold you over ...
And some questions about the scrapbook -
1 - what colour is it
The cover is a faintly metallic navy blue. Very dark. Almost black. I was looking for black, but couldn't find a simple classy one. Went with the very dark navy instead.
2 - is there a window on the cover or is it bare
No window. Just a solid dark navy cover.
3 - is there a cover page in the first page so he knows what it is and what it's all about i.e. an explanatory letter, decorative title etc.
There is both a cover letter, in which I ask him to email me some sort of brief reaction to the project that I can post on the board, and a cute little blurb on the first page of the book telling him he doesn't have to be single and lonely, hoping 2007 is the year he finds exactly what he's looking for and, of course, suggesting that if in doubt as to where to begin his search, he start with his loyal and devoted fan base. :lol: I'll post a pic of that, with other pics of the project.
Just so none of you crap yourselves, don't worry, I won't post any pics of anyone's page without their permission.
4 - where in the book exactly will your entry be :lol:
:lol: Good question. Actually
not the first page. I'm not that obvious.
Third page. As for the placement of everyone else's, I mount them on black card stock and put them into the book as they're received. I do that just so I don't end up spending a gazzillion hours doing it the night before I send it out. Easier to stay up on it. For the most part, the entries go into the book in the order in which they are received. That isn't totally without exception though. It's easy to slide the pages out of the sleeves so I shuffle them slightly if two dirty ones end up next to each other. Trying to maintain a balance between the ones that appeal to his artistic side and the ones that appeal to his naughty side and not clump them together.
Details Mrs.G details
It's coming along great. I've noticed that because the man seems to have two very distinct aspects of his personality, the ads tend to appeal to one side or the other. It's a rare cross-over that is designed to appeal to the man both artistically and sexually. *cough*
kimmy*cough* Most sell one of two things - artistic talent or sex. There are a few that fall in between and shoot for marriage and babies or are non-specific in goal, but most aim for either artistic expression or sex.
Crankyjules - You'll be glad to know the post office didn't lie to you. I received your submission in plenty of time. Got it yesterday. OMG!
You've officially made it onto "
Mrs.G's List of CDG Fans to Nail." :lol: :lol: Right up there with
Kimmy.
Ladies,
crankyjules is a punkish beauty with a host of talents -- art, photography, poetry and a very cool vibe. This is another one that if Carmine doesn't want, I'm all over. :lol: :lol:
