Well I’ve finally got all my products loaded to my new ETSY store.

 It was a task and a half but I feel so much better now that it is all done and I can now focus on other things.  I’m not sure when I will have new digital content for sale as I still plan to take a break and focus my energies onto some new projects.  May is also going to to be a learning month for me.  I’ve enrolled in some business and art classes and I’m looking forward to immersing myself fully into the process.

What does May hold for you?

So I’ve spent the past couple of weeks making endless lists to get myself ready for the next stages of my business.  The first thing has been redesigning my brand header.  I loved this paper from my FTR2013: This & That Pack and knew that I wanted to incorporate into the new design.

I recently revamped my previews and I really liked the simple clean design of it so I decided I want to keep that overall look.  Here is the finished product:

I’ve had some fun designing a new set of business cards as well. (sorry no sneak peek just yet)

So you will see that the blog has had its makeover.  New header and new design template.  Still got some finishing touches to make and then I will work on overhauling the rest of my website.

Next will be setting up my Etsy store which means redoing all my product previews…….it’s a lot of work but there is something great about a fresh start.

I’ll be back soon with a new blog post about my Art Adventures but until then have a great week.

It is a new year and I have lots of new things planned for 2013. Hopefully if you follow my blog or my designing journey you will see my business take off in some new directions. I’m very excited about this and also a little scared to take the steps to follow a dream I’ve had for a long time and this is the year I’m going to make it happen…..I hope. Watch this space……

On the Digital Scrapbooking side of things I’ve discovered that I really enjoy designing product for everyday life rather than specific themed kits. So this year I am going to launch FOR THE RECORD: 2013
Each month there will be a new kit and you will have the option of buying the Economy Kit which has a sampling of papers & elements and is very affordable for those on a budget or you can go all out and purchase the Deluxe Kit which has lots of papers & embellishments and the great thing is that I’ve kept the price of this the same as my standard kits. I will continue to offer my Journaling Packs and I have something new (to me anyway) on the horizon as well.

For those that have purchased from my store in 2012 you will know that I always send out a thank you email and a link to a freebie (new every month) and this will continue in 2013. You will also have the opportunity to pick up freebies or special coupons if you receive my monthly newsletter.

I will be back on Thursday with the first products of FOR THE RECORD: 2013…..

And that was my week.  How was yours?

 

Since getting back from holidays I’ve been a little quiet and haven’t released anything new…..why?  Well to be honest I was feeling a little burnt out and needed an extended break.  The extra time has paid off though and I’m really excited for all the new plans I’ve made for the new year.  I’ve even finished up a new collection that will release January 3rd 2013……..I’ll have a sneak peek up after Christmas.  Until then I thought I would offer some Christmas discounts.  Starting today I will place a kit/product on sale at 50% off for two days, then I’ll move on to another and so on.  Keep an eye on the blog or Facebook to find out which product is on sale.

December 9th & 10th Special 50% off Discount is:
