The client will be advised of this time estimate.

Client agrees that there are costs associated with rushing projects to completion. Client will need to inform the artist, and the artist will need to approve the rush based on the schedule of the artist and the printer. Rush fees may vary from 25-50%, depending on how soon the projects need to be completed. The artist will inform the client, and with the client approval, proceed with rushing orders.

If it is determined that there is an error on the artist side due to printing, depending on the schedule the artist will pay for reprint and the shipping costs, or will provide a refund based on the amount of work that needs to be reprinted.

For handmade paper invitations, handmade paper may vary in various elements upon manufacturer's discretion and is considered part of the paper's character. Thus, artist cannot guarantee the color, look, texture, and size from the sample the client has purchased.
