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 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?

cards

I was toying a few weeks ago of letting my Folksy & Etsy shops quietly close - I was finding it a struggle to promote them and consequently nothing was selling. In the last couple of weeks things have turned around. I sold the latest 'Peggy' and a painting! They must be getting visitors from somewhere who like the sort of stuff that's in there. So, onwards and upwards. I'll try to keep them well stocked and make a bit more of an effort to promote them somehow. That's after I've finished writing the end of year reports and marked the yearly assessments! Managed to doodle a few cards today during lunchtime. Hand-drawn images on yellow card. Might package these up in 3's and see how they go. It's just as easy to draw them as to mess about printing them. Might add some spot colour for the lips, eyes, hair or dresses.

latest idea

Have been tinkering with the 'Keep Calm....' concept. I came up with what you can see in the pic - a card/notelet where you add a doodle using part of the text. I'm thinking of offering these as undoodled blanks in packs of 5/6.



I've thought of posters that have doodles already drawn on them and even considered trying toget celebs/personalities to do versions which would then be auctioned/sold for charity.
Would love to know your thoughts. A big thumbs up or 'think again Fidz' ?
