One of the boards has about 30 pins (0.1" spacing) in a single row while the other has several small IDC male connectors (2 rows on 5 or 6 pins, 0.1" spacing) - "male" here meaning there are metal pins inside the plastic guard/guide shell.  I've got the little crimp on headers for the IDC connectors, but I have nothing for the row of 30.

Just for the one project?

I would use something like this:
http://nl.farnell.com/fischer-elektronik/bl1-36z/header-socket-2-54mm-36way/dp/9728856
and if they can be made to fit on those IDC connectors, after having 
been cut to size, 
http://nl.farnell.com/fischer-elektronik/bl2-72z/header-socket-2-54mm-72way/dp/9728872

Solder the wires on the pins of these headers, use heatshrink tube on 
each soldered wire.
