Please Take My Poll

I need to get some business cards in the future; can you take my poll and tell me what you look for when you get someone's business card? Thanks!

Well, you know, it always depends on what you need the business cards for. Do you want to promote your beads with them? Then with photos of beads. Do you need them to hand out to a bank, business partners, that kind of thing? Then make them plainer and more serious.

i have 2 recommendations for business cards. Moo.com for Moo Cards- little photo cards are so cute and little.
OR
OvernightPrints.com- great prices, you can add photos or design your own, and you can have rounded corners, and glossy options.
It's pretty quick too.
Good luck!

I like the full color photo cards so I can get a sense of the flavor of the artist. (For excavation and plumbing, not so much). Easily legible but stylish font, full contact information. I know cards are available with pre-designed graphics, and if it was really cool it might tempt me to look at their shop, but not as much as a great photo. I got mine from Insty Prints, probably could have gotten them cheaper from Moo. That's the plan for the next box.

Just voted...and agree that I like photos on the card. Will help people remember your work/name. I put a link to who did my cards on my blog post today...Amy from Bean Sprout Studio, she's great (hey, you might win a free design on Jeanette's give away!). And I also like Overnight prints!

Bead Soup Blog Party!

Welcome to the 3rd Bead Soup Blog Party! What is a Bead Soup Blog Party? Each beader was paired up with another jewelry designer and tasked with sending the following: ~ A focal ~ A special clasp (not just a lobster claw) ~ Some coordinating spacers or beads Using the focal and the clasp was mandatory, but we could use anything from our own stash to round out the rest, and choose to use the coordinating beads or not. You may recall my partner was Margot Potter ; click this link to see the blog post I wrote of what she sent me! Here's what I made! Dangly earrings! Come see what the rest of us made! 1. Lori Anderson, Pretty Things 2. Kitty Durmaj, Perles and Life 3. Michelle Heim, Life In the Bead Lane 4. Lisa Petrillo, Lucid Moon Studio 5. Anitra Gordy, Leelu Creations 6.

The Tacky Earring Blog Hop

Diana Ptaszynski had a great idea, instead of a Tacky Christmas Sweater blog hop, a Tacky Holiday Earring blog hop! I was on it.  I had ideas right away.  I had so many I had to control myself.  You can buy these for $15 each, too!  Here we go! I found these awesome wreaths in the miniature Christmas section in Michaels, and they go perfectly with silver and copper colored plastic beads! These trees were found in Michaels, on an end-cap - I assume they are scrapbook or card making supplies, but make fantastic earrings.  The holes were a little small and far down, so I had to make LARGE loops.  Paired these with cute little gold colored jingle bells! And, finally, the ones I had in my head the moment she announced the blog hop.  Dr. Seuss sparkly puff balls with ribbons.  The only thing that would have made these better for me is if I could have found the red ribbons I really wanted to pair these with - don't get me wrong, the silver is cool and all, but in my head they w
