Happy Anniversary to me, and Don't Panic Design ! One year ago today, late on Halloween night, I opened my Etsy shop of printable invitations and personalized note cards, at the urging of my sister. A year ago November 1st, (tomorrow) I made my first sale. Even though I didn't make another sale until sometime in January, that first sale was like a fire, urging me on. It has been an amazing year, full of failures and successes, lessons, and celebrations. And that's what I like most about this job: helping others with their special celebrations! In honor of celebration, let's celebrate with a giveaway! To celebrate the last year, and start off on a good foot this year, I am giving away three items that haven't hit my shop yet. A set of 20 Just a Note note cards with envelopes, a small daily calendar, and a recycled envelope notebook with the winner's monogram on it. In order to enter, all you have to do is leave a co...
It's the time of year that people all over the world wait for: the holiday season. Regardless of how you celebrate, this festive time of year is a time of family gatherings, sharing food, and fun. Here in the Northern part of the Northern hemisphere, we have cold weather and often have snow. ( I hate the cold, and I'm not fan of snow - you have to wear so many more clothes...if I could live my whole life without wearing socks, I totally would. I don't know whey I still live here. It must be Montana summer amnesia. By the time I remember I hate winter, it's too late to move. I mean, really, who wants to move in the winter. ) Even though I'm not snow's biggest fan, much like how the seasons mark the passing of time, snow helps it feel like winter, and Christmas. I know there is snow in some places by now, but not in my town. So, to help get in the holiday spirit - and help those of you who already are, I've set up a set of free Merry & Bright printabl...
Last year I noticed a new trend in holiday cards. Ok, it might not have been new, but I thought it was awesome - the holiday newsletter card. Just a little snippet of your year with highlights, maybe photos, and well wishes for the past and new year. I think it's a fun way to share your year with friends and relatives you don't get to see enough, but it also helps you focus on what to share. Did you move, how old are your kids, did you take a big trip, or have a professional win? It keeps you from spending a lot of time agonizing over what details to share, so you can get done faster, and get back to your day during this busy time of year. Here's a few I was inspired to make.
