A big thank you to all of our customers who got a little blue with us to rally behind this organization with a firm commitment to preserving ocean life.

Last night, a movie called The Cove was awarded an Oscar for “Best Feature Documentary” film. It’s a gripping examination of a highly secretive annual dolphin massacre that takes place off the coast of Japan. The film was produced by the Oceanic Preservation Society, a non-profit organization founded by filmmakers, photographers, and eco-activists.
As animal lovers ourselves, we were astonished by the movie’s revelations about this horrific industry. So in support of OPS, we are launching a special “blue” March promotion! The Green Kangaroo will donate 5% of all blue sales for the remainder of March to the Oceanic Preservation Society.
Help build our fund by ordering something “blue” – literally! Blue orders contain one or more of the following:
• blue ink
• blue paper
• blue ribbon
• blue embellishments
We’ll feature some of the most lovely blue orders on the blog throughout the month, to provide you with inspiration! Just remember, to qualify for this promotion, orders must be submitted before March 31, 2010.
February is all about love! To celebrate, we wanted to send an extra special Valentines Day Promo your way. So, we asked ourselves, “What can we give our customers that they both need AND love?” Our oh-so-fabulous guest addressing service, of course!
For the vast majority of us who type far more than we practice our lovely penmanship, guest addressing is a gift straight from cupid! Just imagine your invitation order arriving with the names and addresses of your guests already neatly and accurately printed in a beautiful complementary ink color and font. Voila! Your invitations look totally gorgeous and all you have to do is add postage!
Understandably, guest addressing is one of our most popular services! Normal rates for guest addressing start at just $1 per envelope set (that’s printing on both the inner AND outer envelopes) and $1.50 if you’d like us to use colored ink. During the entire month of February, receive our guest addressing service (black ink only) FREE with your wedding invitation order from our Signature Collection or Frugal Collection! Or, upgrade to color ink for only $0.50! Save yourself hours of time! Simply select the guest addressing service of your choice in the Design Extras section when placing your order! Now what bride wouldn’t want to take advantage of that?
PROMOTION EXTENDED!
Due to popular demand, we’re extending this promotion for an extra week! Stay tuned for news regarding our charitable promotion for March!
Exclusions: Offer is not retroactive and is only applicable on orders placed between 2/1/2010 and 3/7/2010. Offer is only valid on wedding invitations in our Signature or Frugal Collections. Note: Once you have submitted your order, you will receive a guest addressing template from us. Please follow the instructions on our template carefully as we will print your guest addresses exactly as you’ve entered them. If any correction or manipulation is required to your template, a $25 fee will apply.

A big, green, hopping congratulations to Allyson S. who is the winner of last month’s Save-the-Date giveaway contest! Allyson captured the win with her blog comment telling us why she and her fiance are getting married in October:
“October is our favorite time of the year to be in North Carolina for SO many reasons – the colors of the leaves changing, the NC State Fair, apple cider, comfort food, Halloween, and the most amazing and comfortable weather ever! Considering that we are a military family and will be living overseas while we plan our wedding, its so nice to know that we can look forward to our special day, with our families, in our home state, in a beautiful venue and during our favorite time of the year!”
The Grace invitation in black ink, with black satin ribbon, and optional reception card.
Allyson tells us she’s been eyeing our Grace invitation for several months and is using her $300 credit towards this customizable wedding invitation. We can’t wait to see what personal design elements Allyson comes up with in making the elegant Grace invitation her own!

Last week, the in-studio crew took a field trip to Jay Andrews Salon to participate in the Pink Hair for Hope project. Everyone got some rock-star worthy pink hair extensions to show our support for the 25th anniversary of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. We had a ball and have been generating lots of interest on the streets of Cary, NC! We guess folks don’t normally see a lot of pink hair around here.
Want to join in the fun? Nearly 400 salons around the country are participating in the Pink Hair for Hope campaign. Click here to find one near you. Send us a picture of your pink hair extensions and we just may have a surprise for you!
And even if pink hair isn’t your bag, you can still help The Green Kangaroo mark National Breast Cancer Awareness Month by participating in our Think Pink promotion. Just incorporate ANY pink element into your next order in October and not only will you receive 10% off, we will also donate 10% of the cost of your order to a local breast cancer charity.
Our friend Christobal – who just so happens to be an amazing photographer – tagged along to photograph the pinking out. We will be sure to post those photos next week and give you a blow-by-blow of the hair extension transformation!
October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This October is extra special- NBCAM is celebrating 25 years of awareness, education, and empowerment!
To support and promote breast cancer awareness, TGK wants you to THINK PINK!
For the next 3 weeks (until the end of the month) all pink orders will receive a 10% discount with a charitable match! That means that TGK will donate 10% to Breast Cancer Awareness/Research, and you get 10% off your pink order!
A pink order is one that contains one or more of the following:
- pink ink
- pink paper
- pink ribbon
- pink embellishments
Use coupon code thinkpink10 during checkout to apply your discount!
Offer is not retroactive and is not applicable on orders placed before October 13, 2009 or after October 31, 2009 – no exceptions.
