Wedding used to be grand, elegant and really expensive. Most of the time, almost the entire earnings of the couple for the past few years or so would all be spent on a one memorable night when they would start a new chapter in life, together. It is that one magical night when they would declare their love for each other in front of the people they love and tie the knot of marriage. With all of these being said about this wonderful occasion, do you think spending that much money is all worth it?
Truth be told, I don’t think so. I have attended so many weddings in the past and I could say that the true worth of the wedding is neither measured in the elite wedding venue that you rented nor in the high class wedding caterer that you got for your big day. It’s a little more than that. I have attended low-budget weddings. The ones that is simple and a little less extravagant. But equally, they are all memorable and something that is really romantic.
With that, I think it is just right that couple would now go low and slow for the wedding and save the money for their future instead. Rather than spending lots of money to your big day, having a simple wedding is wiser and more practical that way. The best way to start your practical yet equally memorable and romantic wedding is through the wedding invitations.
The wedding invitation is the soul of your big day. Could you imagine your wedding without the special people in your life would show up and and share with you this momentous occasion with you? Of course not, right? Wedding invitations are often the first thing that a couple who are planning to get married should plan and settle. It is advisable that these invitations should be send out early to make sure that the special people in your lives would be properly notified and they would reserve that day for you.
But then again, since we are in the process of reducing the cost of our wedding day, we would need some tips on an affordable wedding invitation. The secret to a beautiful and classy-looking wedding invitation lies in choosing the right paper and investing on the design that you would use.
It is also important that you also consider the printing quality of your printer when conceptualizing a design. If your printer is not capable of printing high quality colored images, then you might want to go sophisticated in black and white. Check too, if the paper that you would be using is compatible to the printer. You may have a good output when you have it printed in a bond paper but printing it on a specialized paper with a different texture may be a lot different.

Paper Bills
Bills are one of the letters that we usually receive everyday. It is the kind of letter that we often find ourselves to recent receiving such kind of paper. Most of us would just throw it directly or even tear it into pieces when we are all furious if it happened to arrive at a wrong time. Such consumer behavior is one reason why some people are suggesting totally eradicate paper-based billing and simply send the bills electronically, through email or through any other virtual medium.
The topic on paper-based billing has always been one of the many simple yet very debatable topics not only in the country, but in the whole world as well. It might be appear to be simple but if you would really delve on the matter on hand, you would realize that there are many implications on choosing as to whether we should opt for paper bills or paper less billing, For most of us, we could hardly picture the gravity of the situation since we are unaware of bothe the direct and indirect costs of both sides.
Now to better understand the picture, here are the three categories of costs when comparing traditional paper-based billing versus full on-line or digital billing.
At first some of us would think that a paper-based billing is not that expensive at all since it only involves the cost for paper, envelopes, ink and postage. But that’s not all, there are also indirect charges that comes with paper-based billing like the required manpower for handling calls and doing the accounting. Also, not to mention the bulk of bills that is undelivered and the costs that comes with storing these bills. Indeed, if you are to look at it that way then you could just see how expensive paper-based billing could be!
And for a small company, that could be a pretty serious expenditure to consider. But then again, the question here is not about if it is expensive or not, the main argument here is, as to whether the money that we are investing on paper-based billing is all worth it?
Let’s face it, the internet has always been virtual. The electronic way of doing things is not that accurate if we are to do things the way that we would normally do it. Like that in a paper-based billing system. If in a paper-based billing system we are already encountering some problems on getting some people account for their bills, debts and others, what more if we would do it digitally?
What proof could we have that they have received the bills if we are to send it through email? Although admittedly, the internet has been very useful to us these days, it is not without any faults or flaws. There have always been some glitches when it comes to communicating through the internet. We have always encountered how the electronic mail is not fool-proof. We have experienced for so many times when the e-mail that we are to send did not reach the person concerned.

From Tree to Paper
Grown-ups would always say that we should not waste a single piece of paper since the number of trees is already dwindling in our world. The lack of trees has serious consequences, not only to our paper supply, but in the welfare of our nature as well. Although wood pulp is said to be a renewable product, we are still faced with lots of problem since most of us are not taking some of our precious time to plant a tree.
But really, how does a wood pulp become a paper?
The paper that we are using right now is 95% made from trees. Trees with high quantity of cellulose fiber are really farmed for the purpose of paper production. These trees are noted to have cellulose fiber that comprises with 40 to 50% of the total weight of the said tree. Cellulose fibers are the only thing needed for paper making; this is why lignin and other organic materials should be separated in the “pulping” process.
Pulping could be mechanical and it mainly produces paper products that do not require strongly bonded fibers like newsprint, packaging, and others. The other method is chemical processing where heat, pressure and chemicals are used to dissolve the lignin in the wood.
But then again, paper could not be recycled infinitely. The fibers of the paper are getting shorter and shorter each time they are mechanically processed making it possible for an average paper to be reprocessed from three to six times. Other than pulping, production of recycled paper also requires bleaching because of the combination of different dyes and inks that are used in the paper previously.
After bleaching, the wood pulp now undergoes an intricate process of layer building before it is sent to the final roller, which squeezes out the last of the water. Paper is often dried with infrared heat. The output or the recycled paper usually looks a little off-white or gray making it physically different from the processed new paper that is totally bleached.
Although the “paperless society” is now being explored by many technological firms and experts, paper is still far from extinction. We would still need paper in the next centuries or so, making it important for us to be familiar with recycling paper and reuse of raw materials.

Card Making For All Occasions
Every year, each one of us celebrates our birthday and in addition to that, other special occasions equally deserve of a grand celebration and of course our utmost attention. We annually celebrate anniversaries, Easter, Valentine's, Christmas and New Year's Day. More often, it is during these important occasions that card making plays a vital role. It is our important tool in getting our thoughts and feelings across.
Card making projects happen as many times every year. And in each card making project our creativity and artistic talent are always challenged. We are also expected to come up with a sweet message that could complement and beautifully crafted card. For most of us a personalized greeting card usually expresses how special a certain person is to us. The fact that we are willing to work on a card making project for them is already enough proof to show our love and care for this friend or family that is very dear and close to our heart. There is no other way of expressing such love and affection rather than a card making project.
Card making is again gaining its momentum nowadays. For some of us, we can’t attend a special friend’s birthday party if we would not have a personalized card with us. We could forget the gift but not the card. Cards have multiple uses, especially the personalized one. More than getting our love and affection in words, these cards could also work best when enclosed with cash telling them to buy themselves a gift.
Card making is an indispensable craft. It is quite inevitable since we humans love celebrations. No matter what our race or religion is, we can’t deny that we are having so much fun in parties and other gatherings. Giving someone a special and personalized card is sure to be appreciated. The sweet thoughts that you would say in that card are sure to put a genuine smile in his or her face.
But more than being one of the requirements in attending a big celebration, we could also consider card making as a wonderful hobby. Card making is not that difficult as we perceive it to be. It is not also as stressful, especially if you already get the hang of it. All of us have an inner sense of creativity with us. This makes all of us pretty capable of coming up with wonderful concepts and designs that we could use for the card making project that we are working on.

Kid-Friendly Card Making
Parents are very protective of their children. So, when the time that they are should go to school. It is the parents who are scared and the children are very ecstatic. Both of them, the kids and the parent, could not sleep days before the first day of class. Again, it is excitement for the children and paranoia for the parents.
Parents are particularly scared during the arts and crafts class since it is that specific subject when their children could freely use scissors and other harmful instruments to work with their craft projects. Some parents are too scared and paranoid to the point that they would request the school if they could just bring the project at home so that they could watch them carefully as they work on the project. However, some parents are quite sneaky. Instead of running the risk of hurting their children in the process, they would just work on the project instead and let their children play outside.
But have you parents ever thought that in this way, not only they are teaching their children to be lazy and dependent but also they are depriving them of a once in a lifetime chance to learn new things and explore their creativity?
Card making is one of the most common arts and crafts activities that most schools would assign their pupils. Parents need not to worry if they would hear that a teacher is giving a card making project for the class because there are many ways by which they could be assured that it would be safe and educational for their children. Card making is the safest art and craft project in schools. It is designed in such a way that the creativity of the children would be challenged without even worrying about scissor cuts and other crafts-related accidents.
How? This is a unique card making activity since pupils are not requested to bring scissors.
For starters, teachers are already showing the students the kind of card that they are about to make, a day before the card making day. It is through this activity that the cognitive skill is challenged since the kids are just instructed to look at the card carefully to observe on the things that they should bring for the card making project. Since this is a no-scissors kind of card making project, they are expected that all of the paper that they will need is already cut under the parent’s supervision, of course.
When the card making day comes, everyone is excited, including the parents. This time they are not worried at all since they know that their children are safe in this kind of activity. The kids love card making activities. It is that kind of activity in school that they look forward every month. For them, it is really fun to make a card and customize its design based on what they want. It is one way of children to express themselves and let their feelings or emotions heard.

Office Cards?
I have been a part of many companies ever since I joined the work force, more than ten years back. I have already observed how each company would follow a different set of norms and standards. How each would have a different culture and how hard at first to adjust and make myself fit in their so-called working environment.
But I find my present work, a bit different. When I accepted the job offer, along with the contract they gave me an office card. It was a card welcoming me to the company and telling me how they are really happy that I am a part of their team. Of course, I find it very warm and comforting. It inspired me to do my best in all of my tasks and projects. It is through those words of encouragement that I am now continuously improving myself.
Apart from the welcome card, my new office also has other cards to give their employees. Each card is meant to further inspire the employees to be the best that they can possibly be. It reminds us that we could always be more than what we are right now. There is always a room for improvement. Boosting your employee’s morals through these cards is indeed a fantastic idea. I could attest that such method is very effective in motivating your employees.
In addition to that, our company is also very fond of giving away cards for their clients and customers as well. They wanted to make sure that they would know that we appreciate them and the way that they do business with us. It is also one way of our company to keep touch so as to maintain professional relations with them.
Imagine how investing on cards could be very helpful for your company. This simple gesture of appreciation would make your employees even more productive and dedicated to their work. Also, it is through these cards that we could be assured that there would always be clients and customers who would be interested to transact to your business. You could never imagine how a small card could actually go a long way in the corporate world. Some of us may think that cards are only for our personal use but little do we realize that it could bring a lot of profits for our business as well.

The countdown is on and it’s just a matter of days for the holidays to come. People begin to save and spare a little portion of their earnings for the upcoming sales so they could go for a holiday shopping spree. Children have updated their wish lists each day with what they see on televisions and update themselves with the latest toys. We see people on the streets rushing for a living, working really hard and earning every incentive to have some break on the holidays. And every store owner, whatever the goods their stores are selling is trying ride on the trend of having holiday gift sets for display.
Christmas is really the best season to bond with families and friends, reuniting with friends and a time of forgiveness. It gives everyone the opportunity to sharing one’s blessings to others dear to us. It is the perfect time to receive and to give gifts too.
While it is barely two months before the coming of the Christmas holiday, it isn’t too late yet to have a list of the people to send gifts and greetings. Prepare everything you need like the overall budget and allocate an amount for each person whom you intend to give some of these gifts. Make a separate list of the possible gifts to be given then check the prices of these stuffs at stores.
Families may be given huge holiday gifts set which may cost you less than the usual price of the individual products included in the said gift sets. Holiday gift sets come in gourmet food baskets, cake gift sets, chocolate gift sets and other grocery baskets. They come in very nice packaging with tags ready for giveaway.
Ladies may be given cosmetic gift sets, organizer gift sets which usually comes with a calculator and pen as well as purse gift sets. Men on the other hand, may be given also some fragrance gift sets, tools sets and the like. Children may be given clothes gift sets and toys sets.
Sounds interesting, isn’t it? But these are only a few of the many gift sets available in the market which are obviously having a significant market share especially this holiday season. And I think there couldn’t be anything more popular than these gift sets on sale for they offer a great way to give this season without overspending.

Gift Sets Wonder
Christmas shopping has never been that easy. It was not even therapeutic for most of us. Sharing should feel good but when it is already Christmas time and we are right in the middle of all sorts of people doing some late, last minute shopping and Christmas rush, we are all stressed. All of a sudden, we have this not so good thinking that we would just pick and wrap anything for someone just because we want this Christmas shopping over and done with.
If we are all filled with that much of angst and bitterness in our hearts as we buy our respective gifts for the special people in our lives, then might as well not give a gift at all. It is better that way rather than knowing that at the end of the day, they would still find out that the gift does not come from the heart after all. It is given out of sheer obligation and more painfully, you even thought of this gift as a burden once upon a time.
Christmas is all about giving, sharing and loving. What good would a gift be if we are not to give it with an open heart? What would be the use of the practice of gift giving if love would not be present while we are sharing the blessings that we have during the previous year? Finding the perfect present should not be a burden. It is expected of us that when we are looking or buying the perfect gift, we are doing with so much love in our hearts. We are doing the practice of gift giving out of love and not because we are obliged to or because we will be embarrassed if we will not give anything. Gift giving is not also about us afraid of being tagged as the scrooge or the Grinch who hates Christmas.
Christmas is supposed to be filled with love and there should be no room for anger and resentment. This is why department stores are doing everything they can to make Christmas shopping easier for each of us. This is where the wonders of gift sets enter. Gift sets are affordable gift suggestions from shopping centers all around the world. It seems like we consumers are already falling into a predictable habit and preferences each time we are buying our gifts.
The department stores and shopping malls observe us closely when we are buying our friends and family gifts. They would now pack these stuff neatly and have it all ready just for you to pick up and give it to that special person who played an important role in your life.
