sad face

Although the pottery sold quite well there were no takers for any of my cards! I'm putting it down to the fact that the table was small so they couldn't be displayed or appreciated in all their glory. I'll just have to make more so that I can have a stall of my own!

new(ish) card

My better half is selling Polish pottery at a Xmas fair this weekend. I might sneak some of my hand-drawn cards onto the stall and see if they sell.

new card

Another card 'design'.

even more cards

Yet another card 'design' - ballet dancers. It's quite therapeutic to draw these cards. If no-one buys any I'll have plenty to go at when I'm stuck for a last minute card! 

 

 

A6 single fold, pen & pencil.

chrimbo cards

An angel design this time. Each one different as they are still all hand-drawn in pen and shaded with pencil. They are on white card tho' the pic makes them look bluish! Again, will offer these in my shops in packs of 3 (A6 single fold complete with envelopes).

It's not too early for Christmas is it?

 

cards in shop

Have just listed some packs of cards in my Folksy shop. Each and every card is hand-drawn and they come in packs of 3 (complete with envelopes). The content of each pack will therefore vary (no two cards will be the same) as will card colour as they are drawn on recycled offcuts.

 

 

more cards

Have been faffling about with some more hand-drawn cards. These have added pencil shading! I must make the effort this weekend to list some sets in my shops. I'm thinking along the lines of £5 for a pack of 3 (complete with envelopes!). Even though I say so myself, these must be a bargain - 3 original pieces of art for less than the price of a couple of cups of coffee.

 

 

They are A6 single fold on recycled offcuts of card.

more cards

More hand-drawn card designs. The footy supporters would come in packs of 3 of the same team colours. Must get round to putting these in my Folksy shop, but work is hectic- too busy chasing paperwork around!

more hand-drawn cards

Have been doodling some more cards - not quite finished as I want to outline the figures with a thick black line. Have got 3 'designs' at the moment - 'footy', 'me and my girl' and 'girls'.
£5 for 3 original pieces of art - what do you reckon?

A6, single fold, ink & pencil crayon

more 'bot thoughts

Been toying further with the 'bot idea. Have sketched some pics straight onto cards with a biro - so the underlying guidelines can be seen. Am liking the fact that this retains the original spontaneity. I'm envisaging selling them for around $2 ('double dollar doodles'!) - without envelopes as this would eat into the already slim profit margin (after listing fees and 'free' postage). I'm thinking that the giver/recipient could add other details or colour as they think fit. Again, any feedback on the notion would be gratefully received.

robot cards

Have just listed some cards in my Etsy shop. Each one is hand-drawn (not printed) and bears a line illustration of a 'bot with spot colouring. They are supplied complete with envelopes in random packs of 3 (though you can stipulate whether you would prefer boy or girl 'bots). A bargain - 3 original pieces of art for little more than a coffee and sandwich!
