Some time ago in a space not far away…
I decided that my supercool vintage label maker was just too inefficient as a business card/ tagging device.
Ok, ok, it was a long time ago [last September]
witness yesterdays post on snails and doing it slowly…
My stamps have arrived [also some time ago, it’s the getting around to this that has taken a while…]
One of the best pieces of advice I can apply truly to my own flawed procrastinating self comes from my husband’s hard core depression era [the first one] Boxing coach:
“Thinking about it aint gonna get it done”
So very true and so bleeding obvious. But like a fish slap in the face it’s what you might need occasionally. Why you ask? Meh.
I digress. As I do. No wonder nothing gets done. Except the boring bits. Like washing and folding. The eternal round of wiping counter tops, treading on lego and making food. etcetera etcetera.
So yes, where was I? Stamps. Afraid of commitment. Sick of computing. [Yet here I am bashing away on a keyboard] Rebelling against my own profession as a Designer, I am going back to old school techniques…
It’s been done before, I know, but you know, like whatever. As I said. I’m being rebellious. So observe if you will, dear readers, my business cards à la mode.
No two are alike, and yes, I can use child labor. Sweet. If I don’t get too bossy and art directy.
So the point being, my stuff make great gifts. As they have tags. Ooooohh. Yes. And there’s some stickers somewhere too. Not happy with those, though. Too big and unfindable. Later. [Possibly much]
.
all these tags are fab! I don’t care how long it took…worth it.
Your tags are awesome! i bet they were more fun to make than wiping down counters and treading on lego….boy, can i relate to the treading on lego. *sigh*
Awesome…and I expect nothing less from you! You know how I feel about things that look handmade with love. It screams “I give a shit”… about me and you. LOVE THEM!
Simple, hip, and worth every bit of time and work.
Thanks so much for the appreciation lovely ladies, of course you get it because you are the same, people who give and also value a little extra thought and effort. Cheers and Happy Holidays
