Starting my card business! Yes, folks. You will soon be able to order "50 of those" if you so choose. Right now I am starting with Christmas/Holiday cards. The other night I came up with 10 designs after Grey went to bed. After drawing them, I said, "Let's do this shizz. Life's short. I want to make some cash!"
Beauregard wholeheartedly agreed.
So...pics to come soon. I just went to the printer and approved the proofs. They're now being printed...2500 of them. Wow. It's a little scary and a LOT exciting to finally be doing this! The cards will come in packs of 10, sealed in biodegradable clear plastic bags. That was a MUST for me. I really didn't want to put more plastic out into the world, but I knew I needed some sort of protective covering, and I found some wonderful products at www.clearbags.com
I love it that you can compost the plastic sleeve! YAY!
Alrighty, have to go do stuff while my extremely fussy and teething human boy naps. I'm the most excited EVER! I shall write more entertaining blogs when I get a chance, but I just wanted to "put it out to the Universe" that yes...yes, I AM following/chasing/designing this dream for myself.
Anybody want to help me stuff bags full of cards? Because I'll need help with that. :)
p.s. $20 for a pack of 10 cards. Seems reasonable enough to me...especially since they're AWESOME.
YYYYYAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDelete1.) I'm super happy about this bc I fell in love with your cards when you had a few out last Christmas (and I laughed out loud reading about your bitter Valentine's cards).
2.) I can NOT be a bigger fan of doing what you want and making your own existence/destiny/creation/life.
I want to Order Christmas/Holiday cards. Please and thank you. And I'm proud of you, you are awesome.
