The Road to NSS: One month to go!

This week has really flown by! Can't believe it's Thursday and there's only one more month until the Stationery Show. I've decided to re-order the to-do list this time, and list things in order for priority. Here's the state of things as of today:

NEED TO DO:

1) Highest priority on new designs:
-finish new cards - 7 hand-drawn designs have been scanned and edited in Photoshop. Need to make printable files. 3 out of 7 collage designs made. Update Friday, April 18th: all new collage designs finished!
-photograph new cards. Done for Les Cartes de Pauline (our new card line). Still need to photograph and/or scan the other new cards. Update Saturday, April 19th: done for all new cards except the 7 hand-drawn ones
-edit photographs of new cards. Done for LCDP. Update Saturday, April 19th: done for all new cards except the 7 hand-drawn ones
-add new cards to wholesale catalog. In progress for LCDP. all except 7 hand-drawn ones
-create Voyages catalog and select new postcards. In progress.

2) Next highest priority on mailing postcards to stores:
- store research - in progress.
- send mailers - will do when research is "completed" or after I run out of time to do more research, probably the second.

3) Third highest priority: The Booth
- "shelves" for booth - in progress, can probably do more. (When I have pictures of my booth, you'll see why shelves is in quotation marks.)
- 2 large collage images - 1 done, 1 to go
- booth signage - done.
- other elements - need to do.
- furniture. Previously, we were going to bring the furniture up from NC, but Mitya's aunt offered us her furniture to use. Score!

4) Press Kits
- add photos, images to text
- order press kit folders
- print

5) 3 samples of each card design - in progress

Oh, and I also am working on current orders for stores as well! Priority on those is high as well!
