The Year of the Ox is nie!

February 4, 2009

Yup… the momentum from last year (starting around October) seems to be picking on up and rolling faster than ever! I’m still doing very well in the sales dept for Zazzle (thank you everyone!!! *hugs*) And it’s my year since my Chinese sign is the Ox / Cow. 😀

I’m feeling really creative lately and have been able to throw out lots of new and cute designs for the upcoming holidays (Valentines’ Day especially A.T.M.)

There are new sales at Zazzle, including 50% off Business Cards till the end of February! If you’re interested in help making personalized cards, feel free to contact me through my website. Click below for more info about the sale:

My allergies have been the worse ever in a long while but I am amazing still able to think straight enough to get some good illustrations cranked out. I was even able to come up with a brand new design when one of our new part-timers at work asked me how the heck I come up with ideas / draw a design. Amazingly while randomly showing her my process I got a new cute design. 😀 I’ll post it once Zazzle has updated their product view for my store.

Other than that… as much as I’m liking the cool weather, and we haven’t had much in the way of ice or snow or whatnot, I’m still hoping Mother Nature will finally decide if she’s going to continue yo-yoing between cold and hot or just choose one. I’d prefer the cool over the hot if possible. Texas is way too hot as it is most of the year and coolness (60 degree range) isn’t half bad. 😀

That’s it for now!

Greeting Card Universe…

October 10, 2007

I was directed to this site from another place I commonly put art at online.

GCU is actually a pretty nice site where artists post art for greeting cards that are for sale from the site. Artists get a discount for buying their own cards should they wish to do so. Also the site gets alot of feedback from visitors to what sorts of cards they are looking for which helps artists know what audience to make their art for.

I’m not familiar with the commissions yet as I haven’t had many clicks, sold any cards or added too many designs. I haven’t even really pushed my shop other than putting a link in my mercado section of my site. I was just curious mostly how it worked but I think in general I like sites like Zazzle and Cafepress just for the wider ranger of products you can design for.

Overall it’s a good site with an active community on it’s forums. I need to get more into forums but I have never been much of a forum person. I prefer the activeness of IMs, chatting, or email.

Check it out if you want to get your art on cards and sell it.
