Talking My custom ceramics for breast cancer fund raising from ABC

Gene at ABC just finished printing these for me today and sent me these pictures. They came out even better than I'd hoped! I designed these for my friend who is doing a 60 mile walk for breast cancer research in November and needs to raise $3500 before then. I got the idea from MSPatton's business card chips and thought they'd be a cool little novelty/conversation piece for her to give to potential donors. Usually she makes up postcard sized handouts, but they don't last long in her pocketbook or in people's pockets. These however are something you will notice at the end of the day when you empty your pocket.

The slogan on the front side with the state outline is hers and the one on the back is from the charity itself. Not sure if you can tell from the angle, but those are footprints walking across the state. On the back side is the link to her personal fundraising webpage on the charity site.

Big thanks to Johnny5 for helping me do the artwork, since my photoshop skills are quite primitive. As usual, his work is simply the best and exactly what I had in mind. Also big thanks to Gene at ABC for his work and last minute tweaks to make these perfect!





And if you'd like to support this wonderful cause, please click the link in my signature below to see the raffle I'm running for 2 free Casino New Yorker complete sample sets as well as 2 matching plaques. All you need to do is donate as little as $10 to Susan's webpage to get yourself a raffle ticket. All donations are tax deductible and the more you donate, the more tickets you get!

Re: My custom charity ceramics from ABC

Thanks Michael. I'm going to use one for a card protector I think and when someone asks about it, I'll give them one if they promise to make a donation.

Re: My custom charity ceramics from ABC

The chips are gorgeous....and perfect for Breast Cancer awareness. Gene does good work, and these are another example! Great design work also by John and John!

A great gesture for you JM, and here's hoping that many more donations will come in for this wonderful and worthy cause.

Re: My custom ceramics for breast cancer fund raising from ABC

What a great idea to have the chips made for your friend. It's not only a great conversation piece, but should be memorable as well given the subject.

Kudos to J5 and Gene too. They really did turn out well.

Good luck with the donations too. It's an great cause.

Re: My custom ceramics for breast cancer fund raising from ABC

Yeah this is her third year doing the walk (180 miles!!) and these chips were a surprise for her this year. She had no idea I was working on them. After she saw them, we decided we'll do a new version every year with her new slogan and whatever state she's doing it in. It'll be kind of a collector series.

Re: My custom ceramics for breast cancer fund raising from ABC

Great chips, JM. Hopefully you can play in the benefit tourney this year in Maynard. Missed you last year.

Excellent idea! Lost my mother-in-law to breast cancer a little over a year ago and it was tough going...still is. Good luck to you and your friend in collecting donations.

PM me to let me know how to donate.

Thanks Andrew. I'm sorry to hear about your mother in law, my condolences. Definitely let me know when that tourney is this year, I hope to make it this time.
