A big thank you to
Angela for creating our beautiful new logo!
I love the badge, and it's unique in that we have the only round badge this year, as far as I know! Thank you for sharing your creative talents!!
Marilyn your badge is awesome too! Love the details....what a nice keepsake. Thank you too!!
Laminating - there are two types of laminating processes - heat seal and self adhesive. If you have an OfficeMax or Staples nearby, take your printed badge and they will laminate it for you for a small charge.
Or, you can buy several sizes of
self sealing laminating pouches at OfficeMax, Staples, Walmart, KMart, and I'm sure various other stores. Instructions will be on the package, and no special equipment is required! Be sure to leave a border around the badge when you cut it out if you will be punching a hole or attaching a lanyard clip of some sort. Most of these stores also carry generic lanyards, or there is a BAF lanyard being offered on their website as well, if you are interested.
You can print the front and back of the badges on individual sheets of paper, cut them out and place them front and back before laminating. You may want to print the images on a heavier stock than regular 20# bond if you have those types of papers available.
Thanks again for the beeYOOteeful badges ladies! And if anyone else gets bit by the creative bug....please share yours as well!
