WOYWW 412

Hello and welcome,

Another week has passed and another Wednesday aka WOYWW has rolled by  (all details about WOYWW can be found here)

So here is a shot of my desk in its current state



















some detailed shots

The design I made for my namecards for my shop.

when doing grocery shopping yesterday I couldn't resist
this cute napkin design.

and the crazy bird stampset from Kaiserkraft.














































Past week I have been creatively busy and created background 8 to 12 for the 100 day challenge














Besides going to work, running the household, creating these backgrounds, I also am in full preparation for this Friday's art martket where I will have a stand with my cards. Past weekend was full of stress with ordering the cards, Last week I ordered them, but luckily I found out before they went in production that the chosen paper wasn't ideal to write on, yeah, that is of course the whole purpose of a card, no? The other option was double the price so I cancelled that order (luckily for me that was a possibility) searched for another company, found it, uploaded my files, had difficulties with size, then with resolution, then on Monday I got a mail that something went wrong on their side and the delivery will be delayed, and because  it is a holiday on Thursday probably to Saturday, I said that that was unacceptable as I need them the latest on Friday evening, they were going to see with production what was possible and give me a ring, didn't get a phone call, but did get mails that the cards are in production and with delivery date as planned the latest tomorrow, so cross fingers everything goes ok. That the designs are well, the quality fine and of course that there will be lots of interest on Friday.

  6. Beautiful design for the name cards, hope they materialise in time. Thought you might like to know the Welsh for Butterfly as I tend to use it most of the time instead of the English - Pili-Pala. BJ#23
