Appreciation Warms My Heart

wlotusOne of our secretaries retired today. She has always supported my artistic endeavors--she is artistic herself!--and especially loved the photos I've made of Enrique. For a farewell gift I gave her an 8.5"x11" print of one of her favorite shots of him. At the advice of a friend, I also gave her a set of notecards featuring another of her favorite shots of him.
You would have thought I had handed her a couple hundred dollars, she was so excited. She *loves* them, especially the cards. I had told her and the other secretary I had just started my own line of note cards, and this was their first chance to see them first-hand. The other secretary hugged me and told me she is proud of me. Their responses made my morning.
As a bonus, another woman who had stopped by was so impressed, she copied my shop's URL from the back of one of the note cards. That photo isn't up yet; it will be part of the batch of nine new designs I intend to release this weekend. I'm excited by her interest!
After work I need to pick up more cards and my business cards. If someone stops me in the street or on a train (where I am often seen crocheting) and asks about an iPod cozy, I need an easy way to direct them to my shop. Business cards are the way to go.

no I don't have a shop yet- I think that I'm going to give making bags another try--- I have an idea for messenger bags and funky non-fugly purses with my drawings on them...
I just need to get over my roadblocks and do it!
