Final Project for the Class!

I decided to do a design a graduation card for my final project. My purpose is get my family and friends to come to my graduation on May 12, 2012 at 11 a.m and tell them they are invited to the graduation. There will be three colors used because of the Pittsburg State University colors,which are crimson and gold, and the card will be black with white lettering or font. The target audience is my family and friends from all over to come and celebrate me graduating. The call to action is giving them the location of where the graduation is being held and to inform them that I am graduating this May. The bleed is .125 inches. The margins are .25 inches. The whole sheet or trim size is 10 inches wide by 7 inches high. It will be printed on card stock paper. The live area on each page will be 5 x 7 inches. I did do a folding dummy. I just scanned the front and back of each rough from both outside and inside of the card then uploaded it on here. I had it printed on 80# paper at Quick Print. From the Master Image Checklist, I used a reverse and a clipping path. If I were to print 500 invitations, it would cost me $240.37 according to Quick Print. It cost me $7.67 to print four copies of my invitation. The image of me is actually copyrighted by me because I took it. The texture I used is copyrighted from the Lost and Taken website on the PSU Graphics Blog. Final Images posted toward bottom of the blog.
