AD Trading Cards

Each year Marketing does a gift at the holidays that celebrates our team. One of the great things about having Erin Brady join us a few years ago is that she brings a lot of creative energy to this.

This year, Erin developed AD trading cards for our Dallas and San Diego offices. (All 30 of us).  Not only did she find really funny photos , but each card had the "team player's" name and "nickname" on it. (Which Erin made up.)  The back of the card contained "mostly true" facts about each person and all of it was hilarious.  (Nancy Jumper and I served as contributors for that part.)

I love it that we work in a place that we know each other well enough to even have that type of content.

Now, wouldn't you like to know what we have planned for next year. (Smile.)

Note: Jason McKelvey would probably like me to add that his nickname "Barbie Paparazzi" has to do with a project he did for his photography class.  He was running tight on deadline and couldn't find anyone to model on the one day he had to shoot, so he wound up using his daughter's dolls.  (Which turned out oddly real looking with 1940's movie star lighting.)  I should probably also clarify that Brian's nickname has to do with the fact that he played Santa at our company Christmas party. Last year, Brian's three-year-old son almost gave the game away by pointing and calling out "Daddy Ho Ho."
