Normally MsFire is NOT an organised Christmas person; well certainly not organised enough to make cards, buy, make and have presents wrapped BEFORE the big day....except for... THIS YEAR! I decided this was the year I was going to be organised and put into action some ideas I've had brewing in the back of my mind.....
So-part one of that process was to try and work out how to offer my little drawings to more people. Each drawing takes such a long time and is so detailed that sometimes it is very hard to part with them! This got me to thinking; maybe I could offer reproductions of these drawings? maybe people would like them as cards?? My plan was hatched and after a bit of research, I was fortunate to find a lovely local printer South Australia who printed them on recycled paper and right here near my home (support local people!). When I first received back my proofs from the printers, out of sheer excitement and glee I posted about them on Facebook (I have a tendency to get a bit excited). The response I received was so overwhelmingly positive that I had to print MORE cards! Huzzah, you all ROCK! The cards have also been a hit at a number of markets I've had on in the last few weeks here in Adelaide.
Moral of the story? I think hard work and organisation may have paid off! Now to be organised enough to draw new designs for next year.....
Here are the four designs (blank interior; and useful for any occasion!)
$4 per card
$20 for a pack of 6 (mixed)
Email me if you'd like to order some- I haven't got many remaining ! (perhaps I can add a virtual shop on my 2015 to do list!).
Also, I'd like to say a massive THANK YOU for following me here on what I can only describe as a really haphazard adventure! I love hearing from so many of you and your support means a lot to me! Have a very Merry Christmas and a safe end of year. See you in 2015 for more printing/drawing/photography (mis)adventures!
