@europe

May I enter? I'm an artist, as well as a professional graphic designer, so I thought I'd give it a go 😊

Art is all by me (so please to those viewing, do not steal). Done with pens, and then converted in Illustrator. I have the vectored version on my computer 😊

boxofcrayons • 15 August 2012 at 7:59 PM

@karenna19 For sure 😊 It's gorgeous!

duchess • 15 August 2012 at 9:00 PM

@boxofcrayons, May I join?😊

Here's my design:

Also, if you don't mind me asking, how exactly do you create a card business? It's something that I wanted to do, but I couldn't figure out how ^^

boxofcrayons • 15 August 2012 at 11:46 PM

@duchess Of course : ) Very lovely, I'll add it to the list.

Well, I've a photography habit, and my mother owns an independent flower shop. I've worked there for a few years, and I know what kind of cards sell, and I've also seen what a hard time she has getting in decent quality cards. So I've found a program to make them on and I'm making up some demo cards. I'm having a really hard time getting them to print attractively though :/


*Side note, love your featured 😊

duchess • 15 August 2012 at 11:54 PM

@boxofcrayons, Thanks 😊

That's really cool 😊 Aw, good luck on getting them to print nicely 😊


Hehe, thanks 😊 I really like yours too - the background really matches your eurog ^^

boxofcrayons • 15 August 2012 at 11:55 PM

@duchess, thank you, I'm gonna need all the luck I can get >.<

Thank you, I love it so much 😊

duchess • 15 August 2012 at 11:56 PM

@boxofcrayons, Perhaps a professional printer might help? Although that might be really expensive ^^

boxofcrayons • 16 August 2012 at 12:09 AM

@duchess I know :/ That's what the plan will be, but right now I'm starting school and can't afford it. And I have no promise that she'll buy the cards. She dosen't know I'm doing this. I'm not telling her anything about Crocus until I'm ready to do a professional buisness proposal.

@boxofcrayons

You can goto Staples or UPS to get things printed.
There are other shops that will print for you.
You can also sneak into your local College and use their printers lol.

boxofcrayons • 17 August 2012 at 1:41 AM

@piucca I'm looking into Staples tomorrow, but I will check out the UPS, I didn't realize they printed. Thank you 😊
