GONNA CRY NOW K?

[Brittany-shadowwolf]

Heartbroken... Over a badge that got mangled up in my laminator. I was lucky enough to heroically save the second badge. I will miss you badge. Time spent on the one I lost: 3 hours. I'm pretty shookin up about the whole thing. Going to try and revive it by ironing it. If it doesn't work, all hope is lost. I THINK I MAY SHED A TEAR.

I may have to re draw it. I don't know if I can redraw this beautiful beast.

Does anyone know if you can save a badge after its been mangled up by the lamination machine?
Any advice?

Thank god no one died.

Thank god no one died.

It would have been better if someone died and my badge was safe.
They would have been my hero. Dieing for a badge is most honorable.

OH NO WHOSE BADGE WAS IT

Can you not separate the two layers of plastic Brit? Usually when you laminate stuff there's an ity bity space around the paper where the two sheets of plastic aren't fused. Maybe you can carefully cut it out and then straighten the card stock between encyclopedias? Good luck rescueing it, although I don't know how far gone it is (pics plz?) I hope everything turns out okay.

Dear purple,

The badge... was unfortunetly... yours....
BUT

GOOD NEWS. I have seemed to save it. I mean, If you saw it before. It was mangled.
Like crippled. It had enough wrinkles to look like my dead grandma.
But weirdly enough, It has a fire ice look going to it. The laminant turned into an icicle effect around it.
Anyways...
I will be scanning it in fairly soon. Today. In about 15 min. 

If you don't like it, I will 100% remake you the badge.

So here's the little trooper. I mean, she has gone through some Iron surgery.
She actually looks a lot better. The scan kinda sucks. :x

Oh. Everything turned out better then expected. Don't just give it too him now because it's laminated please, I want to wait for his B-day or something. Yay!

[Brittany-shadowwolf]

What a relief. I defiantly won't. You will be the first to have it. c:
I'm really happy I could save it. Thank god for irons, right?

Never thought badges meant so much to people. I should be charging more for this kind of shit.

Well right now I'm charging $10 for a badge. I plan to bump them up to $15 since i put way too much work into them. ^^;
Con badges are actually one of the top selling things in the furry community, then art, then fursuits and other items. Or so I believe.
