So how did the Valentine idea go?

I grabbed the initiative to hand colour some of my pen and ink cards with valentine themes. Generally this was successful and I also took a number of individual commissions for unique original cards.

The aspect I enjoyed most about the original cards was the need to draw new subjects linked to the brief from my clients. This challenged me in researching and adding elements to personalise the card.

All cards were successfully received by the recipients.

Moving forwards…

I am now offering unique commissioned greetings cards for special occasions or a special person. My next event is Mother’s Day with some orders coming in already. This is something I would like to produce throughout the year.

The cost for an original card is £4 for a 7” by 5” card. It is blank for your greeting. I sign it as an original card and date the year on the front design. It comes with envelope.

If interested use my contact form or see me at The Courtyard Studio on Tuesday. Wednesday or Saturday. (Please note I am away for a break from March 7 to 14).
