there was a bit of a setback last week - i ordered paper to print this new set of cards & ups accidentally sent my order to canada. once the error was figured out, it had to clear customs to get back into the US. i contacted french paper and received an immediate response - they sent out a new box to me next day air. i am SO impressed with their customer service. and because they responded so quickly, i was able to print my cards for the show this weekend!
here's some pics of the printing:
there are five different designs on five different colors of paper
i used a mixture of silver & black ink - so there is a bit of sheen in the prints. the darkness of the ink really shows off the detail of the drawings.

saved the best color for last
helper puppies - they were quality assurance for the day
this was a marathon printing day - 550 cards in over 5 hours. my arm is still a little sore...but its a huge relief to have them printed. i'm thrilled with the results and will post more once they are cut down and ready to sell!

You must be exhausted, but they all look SO awesome! Make sure you take lots of photos at the event -- I can't wait to see these on display.
Do you have a video camera? Because I would LOVE to 1) See the process and 2) Share the video with my classmates in Publishing.
