CAN'T AFFORD EM BUTTONS

2407 3RD AVE, STE 3R

Make sure checks and money orders are made out to PATRICK STANLEY. If they are made out to Can't Afford Em Buttons, we will be unable to process your order.

Also, please do not call and leave a message with your credit card information. We set up all credit card charges via paypal, and will email you the form.

Turnaround time will vary depending on our current workload (which is always fluctuating). In general, we will try to get button orders filled within a week; however, it could be longer. When you fill out the order form below, please give us a date you need the buttons by and we will try to work with you. Turnaround time only applies to orders that have all pertinent information and payment filled.

Rush orders for buttons are possible; however, they incur an additional cost of $5.00 per 100 buttons. Also, you need to check with us beforehand. Sometimes we simply have too much work to accommodate rush orders. A rush order means your buttons will be finished and shipped within 24 hours. (Overnight shipping is additional).

ARWORK READY TO BE SCANNED: This means that you have a drawing (not on the computer) that you will snail mail to us and we will scan the image into the computer. The final art needs to be about three inches in diameter (art for 3” buttons should be about four to five inches). Keep in mind, crappy art will result in crappy buttons. (Please make copies of your artwork before sending it to us. The post office sometimes loses things.)

DIGITAL ARTWORK: Unless you are using the templates, make artwork slightly larger than the button size being ordered. This will allow us to scale the artwork down without losing quality. Ideally, images should be 300 ppi. We will accept artwork under 300 ppi, but please keep in mind the quality may not be as high. We prefer images in jpg, bmp, tiff, Adobe Illustrator, or Adobe Photoshop format; however, if none of these work for you tell us what will, and we’ll try to accomodate you. Art can be submitted through email, floppy, or CD.

When using the templates, make sure you have deleted the inner circle on the button. If you want to insure we print the buttons correctly, feel free to supply one design with the inner circle and one without.

DESIGN SERVICE: If you don’t have the time or resources to design your own buttons, or just need your artwork touched up, we can probably help.
