The Holidays. Seems I'm more of a humbug kind of person when it comes to holidays, even as a kid they were always more tense than warm and loving times. Expressing warmth and love I don't think came natural to my parents. Ha.....I was trying to think about my parents the other day and realized I didn't even know them, as people I mean. Silence seemed to be the best survival skill you could develop to try to keep tensions at bay. But I digress........
Fourthwall :-) I finally mastered creating the website, now I have to learn (at 73 mind you!) how to use social platforms to promote it. This is not going to be easy.
I removed the prints part of the website for now. I continue to mess around with designs and ways to create the prints (mostly the note cards) in the least costly way. I'm leaning toward printing them myself mostly because I've spent so much time and money on trying different papers, buying ink, learning how to print them properly etc etc.... I'd hate to give up and resort to using an outside company, but time and money will tell. This is the main reason I removed the prints part of the website for now......I have to know if someone orders something I can fulfill it confidently.
I'm also continuing to rework the Match Me card game, redesigning the label a bit of the cards box, ordering more prints of more recent works to add to the collections and figuring out ways to lower the cost of producing the end product. For example, the cards themselves aren't that expensive but add on printing on both sides or rounding the corners of the cards things begin to add up. So of course I purchased a corner cutter and I've ordered stickers to adorned the back of the cards (just til I learn how to make my own stickers ;-) at home.
