Thursday December 27, 3:07 pm ET

BOULDER,  Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tombstone Cards (OTCBB: TMCI - News) has filed
a  patent  application  for  OIEPrint(TM),   the  company's  Web-based  graphics
customization software, with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

Developed  over the last two years,  OIEPrint  is a Web-based  application  that
allows individuals to create high-resolution, print-ready graphics. Designed for
use by print shops and product customizers,  OIEPrint users can start the design
process by selecting from a variety of  customizable  templates,  upload photos,
logos  and  graphics  from  their  desktop  files and then add Rich Text or even
Text-Along-a-Path.  The final output not only provides  print-ready  graphics at
300 dpi (dots per inch) but saves the design work in separate  layers in the SQL
database for future editing.

OIEPrint  is  currently  in its first  iteration,  with  Version 2.0 planned for
public release in early  February,  2008.  Both  stand-alone and hosted versions
will be available.

"OIEPrint has proven its versatility,  depth and capability as a powerful online
tool in the custom  playing  card  market,"  said John Harris,  Tombstone  Cards
president. "We are now expanding our offerings,  seeking technology partners and
entering new markets because we know that our  revolutionary  software works and
can attract a wide variety of customers."

"The demand for online  customization  tools will continue to grow exponentially
as global mass-market penetration of high-speed Internet access increases," said
Neil Cox, Tombstone Cards chairman and CFO.  "Clearly,  OIEPrint helps meet that
demand."
