Right click on your project and click Android Tools -> Export Signed Application Package or Export Unsigned Application Package.

If you choose signed package then you need to create a keystore. If you choose unsigned package, then you need to enable "Unknown sources" option from your phone in Settings->Applications menu.

Also you can use your phone as an emulator by connecting your phone to computer with USB.
