FAQ
At Budugalee, we've done our best to create a Web site that anticipates and satisfies our customers' needs. ( Actually, we used a template and are just hacking our way through the process.) It sounds so ultra professional and cool but we do not really know what we are doing. We threw this up in a couple days time because Bernie is Miss Instant Gratification Girl and wanted a website. The fact that she was stamping her feet and whining at her husband has no bearing on this. With that goal in mind, we've compiled a list of frequently asked questions.
If you do not find an answer to your question here, contact us at bernie@budugalee.com or 1-406-672-2513

Why the name Budugalee?
|
|
When Bernie first started making cards she whined to her husband that she just knew her cards would be butt-ugly. After gaining a bit of confidence she wanted to have a stamp to hallmark the back of her cards. “What kind of thing should she stamp on the back of her cards?”, she asked of her ultra smart and handsome husband. He, being just as funny and snarky, suggested the name Budugalee Cards.

Your cards are so funny! Where do you come up with your funny and snarky wording?
|
|
I want to lie and say, Bernie comes up with everything on her own. She is just that darn funny and creative. However, that would be a lie. Friends send her funny quotes and assorted pins from Pintrest and various other sources of humorous quips feed her artistic inspiration. If she likes a quote or saying, Bernie will find some images that match and slap them together to make a fun design.

Will my card look exactly like the pretty picture on my computer?
|
|
Nope. It might be close or it might not be. How is that for an answer? Honestly, when Bernie makes the cards she tries to use several different background colors for each card design. Background color also depends on if Mr. Bernie was brow beat enough to cut some new card stock. Please feel free to leave a message with your order if you have a particular color in mind. We’ll try to accommodate your preference. For example, if the sample shows a pink background and you hate pink, then feel free to ask for a different color background to frame the card. We are easy like a Sunday morning. Each card comes with an envelope and protective plastic sleeve to make sure your card/s arrive in pristine condition.

Where does the magic happen? Can I come see your studio?
|
|
No. There is no amazing bright and airy studio. Just a cluttered craft room in a house. Nothing is mass produced so everything is one of a kind and handmade. Some items may be perfectly straight and others might be a little off. Either way, the card will be perfect in all its imperfections.

I have an amazing idea for a card, can I send it to you?
Sure, send an email to bernie@budugalee.com If you like it and want to buy it, great! If not then we’ll put it up on the website and let someone else reap the joy. Bernie will give you credit on her website if you desire for your inspirational input. Sorry Facebook friend’s who have shared ideas before. Bernie’s husband should have kept track. Bernie will be giving credit from this point on. Sometimes you have to send a woman to do a man’s job. Thank you everyone who gave such great ideas.
