472 Creating place cards for your holiday dinner

- Hey, gang, this is Deke McClelland.…Welcome to Deke's Techniques.…Now, here in the States, we have this holiday…at the end of November called Thanksgiving,…and it's pretty freeform, you might watch a parade,…take in a few football games, but you always get together…with family and friends and you eat,…and you gorge, and you eat 'till you're physically ill.…If at any time you show the slightest sign of discretion,…if you say, "You know, I'm a little full, I think…"I'll pass on that third helping of mashed potatoes,"…then everyone knows you're not a true American,…and we boot you out of the country.…Anyway, it's always somebody's job to host…the Thanksgiving dinner, which is why…this week I'm going to show you how to create…these custom place cards in Adobe Illustrator.…

And, as you can see, two fit up per page,…and we've also got these hairline trim marks right there…to help you cut the cards out,…and you also want to cut along the vertical center…and fold along the horizontal center in order to create…these guys right here.…
