			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.polygraphics.com/party-kids-2nd-bday.php"><img class="alignnone" title="Fill in the blank VS Personalized Invitations" src="http://www.polygraphics.com/images/fillintheblank-vs-personalized-invitations.jpg" alt="the difference between fill in the blank and personalized invitations" width="447" height="258" /></a></p>
<p>Have you planned an awesome, sure to be memorable party for your child and the place that is hosting it provides you with fill-in-the-blank invitations?</p>
<p>Would you like to do better?</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve got the perfect solution. And you can get them really quick.</p>
<p>Go to PolyGraphics.com and type the type of party that you are having in the search bar at the top left.</p>
<p>Do you see an invitation or a few invitations that will work for your party? Order some and they will be on their way to you in 3 weekdays or less.</p>
<p>If you don&#8217;t see any that work for you we&#8217;ve still got something for you – just request what you expected to see. Yes, you can get a custom designed invitation for no extra charge.</p>
<p>You see, we listen to you.</p>
<p>Our collection has grown to over 5000 designs by listening to what people want.</p>
<p>To request a new design, go to this comment page.</p>
<p>Describe what you want – the colors, the graphics, and the theme. We will do our best to craft something wonderful for you.</p>
<p>Bob</p>
<p>P.S. New designs take longer than our normal 3 days or less. Give us a week to let our creative juices flow and we will have something for you.</p>
<p>P.P.S. There are a few limitations on what we can do for you – we can&#8217;t draw Mickey Mouse, SpongeBob or Iron Man. Those characters are protected by copyright laws. We would have to license the rights to reproduce those characters. We also cannot reproduce a team&#8217;s logo without permission.</p>
<p>P.P.S. You&#8217;ll be surprised how nice your completely personalized invitations look beside the fill-in-the-blank ones.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_1279" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 410px"><a href="http://www.polygraphics.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/disappearing-invite-sm.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1279" title="disappearing-invite-sm" src="http://www.polygraphics.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/disappearing-invite-sm.jpg" alt="an invitation goes up in smoke" width="400" height="400" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">don&#39;t let your invitation disappear</p></div>
<p>I ran across a quote from a Tom Clancy book today. In this novel there is an attack on the stock market and a whole day&#8217;s worth of trading information is lost. The characters in the book spend some time brainstorming what to do about all the lost information. They finally come up with their solution &#8211; “If You Don&#8217;t Write It Down It Never Happened”</p>
<p>This made me think.</p>
<p>A large part of getting things printed is to help us remember.</p>
<p>Why do people keep scrapbooks?</p>
<p>To remember. Remember trips, events, celebrations.</p>
<p>Scrapbooks jog your memory, help you recall what you did and where you went and who you were with.</p>
<p>If you don&#8217;t have a copy of your party invitation on paper, did it happen?</p>
<p>Or, to put it another way&#8230;</p>
<p>If you send an email invitation to a party did it happen? Will you remember it?</p>
<p>Memories are great, but most times we need something printed – a photograph, a ticket stub, a party invitation&#8230; something for a scrapbook or a memory box to remind us of what happened.</p>
<p>Do you have printed invitations from your youth that remind you of a celebration? How about photos?</p>
<p>I&#8217;m betting that as you grow older you will remember more things if you have something printed to help you.</p>
<p>Can you recall your first birthday? I can, but only by looking at a photo and a copy of the invitation.</p>
<p>I believe it is our parental duty to help our children remember. Keep a box or a book. Do you remember that second birthday party that you threw for your child a few years ago? Will they remember as they get older?</p>
<p>Help your memory and remember all of your celebrations by getting printed invitations for all of your memorable events.<br />

P.S. This is a great time of the year to look back and to look forward. Printed invitations will do a lot to help you look back and remember.</p>
<p>P.P.S. I guarantee that the invitations that you get from PolyGraphics.com are scrapbook-worthy!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Did you know that you can spell your name with Nautical Flags?</p>
<p>For example, the last name Jones is spelled out out on the top of this invitation:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.polygraphics.com/new_item.php?filename=graphics/party/misc/nautical-flag-name-ring-pty.gif"><img class="alignnone" title="Boat signaling flags party invitation" src="http://www.polygraphics.com/graphics/party/misc/nautical-flag-name-ring-pty.gif" alt="A party invitation that uses signaling flags to spell out your name" width="222" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Nautical flags were designed to be used on ships at sea to communicate messages at a distance or for times when there is radio silence. They are also known as signaling flags. Different groupings of flags can mean different things, depending on the message that is being sent. Here&#8217;s a great place to find more information about signaling flags: <a href="http://www.boatsafe.com/nauticalknowhow/flags.htm">http://www.boatsafe.com/nauticalknowhow/flags.htm</a></p>
<p>The International Code for signaling flags includes a flag for every letter and number.</p>
<p>This makes it fun and easy to spell your name across the top of an invitation or thank you note – great for impressing your boat buddies.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.polygraphics.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/bob_sig_sm.gif"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-337" title="bob_sig_sm" src="http://www.polygraphics.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/bob_sig_sm.gif" alt="Bob's signature" width="75" height="34" /></a></p>
<p>P.S. If you are interested in purchasing real <a href="http://www.ibdesignsusa.com/">signal flags</a> for your party or home visit our friends IB Designs, USA (<a href="http://www.ibdesignsusa.com/"><span style="color: #0658b5;"><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">http://www.ibdesignsusa.com</span></span></span></a>)</p>
<p>P.P.S. Can you imagine yourself as the captain of your own party? Start it with a <a title="Party Invitations with a Boating theme" href="http://www.polygraphics.com/party-nautical.php">signal flag invitation</a>.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Paper Invitations can't do everything. They can't get lost in your spam folder... and 4 other things. Here are some reasons to use paper instead of emailed invites.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For many years people relied on sending paper invitations to their guests. Paper is nice, but there are some things that paper invitations cannot do.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.polygraphics.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/writing-an-invitation.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1022" title="writing-an-invitation" src="http://www.polygraphics.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/writing-an-invitation.jpg" alt="hand writing an invitation with a pen" width="250" height="166" /></a></p>
<ol>
<li>You can not send paper invitations 	to the wrong email address. You may confuse Bill Anderson, your 	accountant, with Bill Andresson, your neighbor, when looking up 	their email addresses to send emailed invitations.. I&#8217;m pretty sure 	your neighbor will be more fun at your party than your accountant.</li>
<li>A paper invitation will not get 	automatically moved to your email&#8217;s spam folder and get lost. Did 	you know that the most opened piece of paper mail delivered are 	invitations? An invitation sent through the mail will not be stamped 	“spam” as unwanted mail without you knowing about it.</li>
<li>Have you heard about the computer 	virus going around that looks, at the start, like an emailed 	invitation? When you click on a link in the email to see the 	invitation details, you are taken to an unscrupulous website and a 	virus is loaded onto your computer. A paper invitation won&#8217;t do 	that.</li>
<li>What does your email inbox look 	like? Are there hundreds or thousands of emails that are unread and 	waiting for your attention?  Is there an electronic invitation to a 	party that was held last week in there? A paper invitation won&#8217;t get 	lost in your computer&#8217;s inbox.</li>
<li>If your inbox is looking pretty 	good and you are on top of everything that is coming in, do you read 	and remember everything as it arrives?  Have you ever been 	distracted while going through your inbox and forgot what you just 	read? A paper invitation, because it is something that you can keep 	and post on your bulletin board or refrigerator will not be 	forgotten easily.</li>
</ol>

<p>P.S. OK, you&#8217;ve figured it out &#8211; I think paper invitations are far, far better than emailed invitations. I thought it was kind of interesting to look at it from a different angle. Did you?</p>
<p>P.P.S. There&#8217;s just something wonderful about paper &#8211; so many things these days are on the computer or smartphone &#8211; to actually touch something and have it to refer to are just great. I&#8217;ll write more about this soon.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[You may not want to buy invitations from PolyGraphics.com. If you want to design your own, go elsewhere. If you want to direct us how to craft your invitations in a fast, easy, and fun way, come to Poly Graphics.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Invitations from Poly Graphics are <strong>not for everyone</strong>. If you want to see <em>immediately</em> what your invitation will look like, after spending your time to place your wording exactly where you want it, where you are the designer of the card, <strong>don&#8217;t order from us</strong>. We&#8217;re more than a printer.</p>
<p>When you order from Poly Graphics here is what will happen: a designer will be assigned to you, they will take your wording and your instructions and craft it onto the card that you have chosen. This will happen within 24 hours*. It&#8217;s not immediate. Normal, non-Rush orders usually ship within 3 weekdays. You can speed this up by ordering with our<em> Rush Option</em>.</p>
<p>With <strong>Rush</strong> we will design, seek your approval, re-design until you are happy, print, proofread and ship your order the <strong>same day</strong> <strong>or next day</strong>! <em><strong>That makes Poly Graphics home of the fastest personalized invitations in the world!</strong></em></p>
<p>Yes, the drafting and online approval process does take some time, but <strong>you are the director </strong>at Poly Graphics –  not the designer. <strong>Would you rather direct or design</strong>?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.polygraphics.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/start-with-a-blank-card.gif"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1013" title="start-with-a-blank-card" src="http://www.polygraphics.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/start-with-a-blank-card.gif" alt="we start with a blank card and add only what you want" width="200" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>You also have <strong>many more options</strong> when you order from Poly Graphics.</p>
<p><strong>Tell us what color</strong> you would like for your wording <em>AND</em> for all graphics.</p>
<p><strong>Tell us what size</strong> you want the graphics, that your child will be 6, or that you are moving to Smithfield. We&#8217;ll put 6 candles on the cupcake for your invitation, or we will highlight Smithfield on the map of your moving announcement.</p>
<p><strong>Send us a photo to include</strong> on your card and we&#8217;ll design it in.</p>
<p>We think that <strong>starting with a blank card and adding exactly what you want</strong>, how you want it, is a great advantage for you to enjoy the <strong>perfect invitations</strong>.</p>
<p>If you have the time, patience, and the gumption&#8230; go to another site where you can be the designer.</p>
<p>If <strong>you don&#8217;t have the time</strong> and want the <strong>easy, fast, flexible way</strong> &#8211; where <strong>you direct us</strong>, then order from <a title="poly graphics invitations" href="http://www.PolyGraphics.com">Poly Graphics</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.polygraphics.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/bob_sig_sm.gif"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-337" title="bob_sig_sm" src="http://www.polygraphics.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/bob_sig_sm.gif" alt="Bob's signature" width="75" height="34" /></a></p>
<p>P.S. Yes, it&#8217;s true, Invitations ordered from Poly Graphics with the Rush Option are,<em> indeed</em>, <em><strong>the fastest personalized invitations in the world!</strong></em></p>
<p>P.P.S. Could personalized invitations <em><strong>shipped the same day you order them</strong></em> be any faster?</p>
<p><span style="color: #333300; font-size: smaller;">*24 hour turnaround is guaranteed for non-holiday weekdays. Weekend turnaround is not guaranteed and we don&#8217;t work on Sundays and holidays. We want to make you happy, but we value our family time. It&#8217;s very important to me that you know that Poly Graphics can do everything that we say we can do. So I want you to understand what 24 hour turnaround and same day Rush processing means. If you have questions about this please call 866-345-7659 (USA only)</span></p>

		<description><![CDATA[Here's a great example of a special request announcement. You can get your limited edition announcement at PolyGraphics.com]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Here&#8217;s an example of a Special Request Announcement Crafted by Poly Graphics</h2>
<p>A few weeks ago we received a special request from Carmen for a graduation announcement. She wanted to include 3 photos. A young photo of her son, a photo of him as he is today, and a graduation cap. Carmen wanted a folded card that had her son&#8217;s young photo on the front, then his graduation photo and graduation announcement wording inside. We said “<em>Yes</em>”. This was definitely something that we could do for Carmen.</p>
<p>A few days later Janet, one of our designers, crafted what you see here. The announcements turned out great! These photos don&#8217;t do it justice &#8211; it <em>really looks nice in person</em>. (<em>we blurred the wording intentionally in the inside photo</em>)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.polygraphics.com/graduation-cap.php"><img class="alignnone" title="Photo Graduation Announcement" src="http://www.polygraphics.com/newsletter/photo-graduation-announcement.jpg" alt="Graduation Announcement with child and graduate photos" width="315" height="201" /></a></p>
<p>Carmen saw the draft that Janet prepared and was very happy. When Carmen received the announcements, she was overjoyed. Carmen got more than she expected!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.polygraphics.com/graduation-cap.php"><img class="alignnone" title="Inside photo for graduation announcement" src="http://www.polygraphics.com/newsletter/photo-graduation-announcement-inside.jpg" alt="inside of a photo graduation announcement" width="271" height="241" /></a></p>
<p>Carmen&#8217;s announcement special request was completed &#8211; from asking to delivery-  in 2 weeks time. Her unique announcements were limited to exactly how many she wanted &#8211; truly personalized printing. We kept one to use as a sample because it turned out so great.</p>
<p>For most special requests we <strong>ask for a week to prepare the design</strong>. With busy days at Poly Graphics and our children&#8217;s schedules we can usually find time in a week for special requests, but not in our normal 24 hour turnaround.</p>
<p>We do not charge extra for special requests if the design is something that we can add to the <a title="invitation collection at Poly Graphics" href="http://www.PolyGraphics.com" target="_blank">invitation collection</a> at PolyGraphics.com. We did have to charge a design fee when we had a request for an <em>Ultimate Frisbee + Wine Tasting Wedding Shower</em>. If your event is something that other people may want to buy from our website, and not as unique as the frisbee + wine tasting celebration there will be no design charge.</p>
<p>Note that our<strong> availability for Special Requests is limited</strong>, so <em>please</em> give us plenty of lead time. If we have several special requests already underway, yours may be delayed because we just cannot fit everything into the time we have. Please understand that we want to do our best work for you and to craft the perfect announcement for you takes time.</p>
<p>If you have a <a title="invitation special request taken here" href="http://www.polygraphics.com/comment/" target="_blank">Special Request, ask here</a></p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.polygraphics.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/bob_sig_sm.gif"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-337" title="bob_sig_sm" src="http://www.polygraphics.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/bob_sig_sm.gif" alt="Bob's signature" width="75" height="34" /></a><br />
</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>P.S. Thank you for the opportunity to prepare something special for your celebration</p>
<p>P.P.S. When you order from Poly Graphics you are getting personalized, limited edition cards, that are crafted to your specifications.</p>
