Pretty little envelopes & business cards




This week has been pretty much taken up with getting rid of the last remaning bit of a very yucky flu, a trip to launceston, filling wholesale orders, returning lots of emails from people I dont know printing business cards ( see photo) and with getting ready for upcoming market.
I have 4 market in the next 3 weeks and I guess it doesnt sound all that scary but I as usual I am doing cartwheels in my mind like that song on the muppets, sang by a funny little blue monster with spining legs, anyway Mathildas has turned out to be the biggest worry as I am not really known for my children orientated wares and I have felt obligate to come up with some new stuff to fill that gap enter my new upcycled envelopes that I have been making out of little golden books I have been buying from the Vinnies stores and I think I have kind of fallen in love with themall over again especially the ones that were printing in the 1960s, the Illustrations are just so beautiful and the paper they are printed on is heavier weight than is used now, even the binding is stronger and better quality I guess it is just a sign of the times .
