valentine dogs and a year on

Not long ago I finished the valentine's day card I was asked to design for Madison Park Greetings.



I like how it turned out and of course I can't wait to see them in print!

It's a year today since I began my etsy shop.

so slow

Right then.

Message inside: "I love the dearness of you"


Message inside: "Hope your birthday is filled with all of your favorite treats"

These little beauties were delivered on Tuesday and I'm only now getting around to blogging about it. OK, it's not that late but why do I feel like I'm always playing catch up at the moment?

I'm really pleased with them and one of the designs made it onto the back page of the brochure as well as listed inside!

I've got a funny feeling that's one of Helen Dardik's card designs right underneath mine on the shelf.

If you're interested here's a little bit about the cards...

Madison Park Greetings is happy to announce that many of our new cards are now printed on recycled paper using soy-based inks. Additionally, many of our envelopes are now made using recycled stock. Madison Park Greetings supports sustainability and is mindful of the environment when developing our products. After all, shouldn't every Park be nice and green?

It makes me doubly happy to be designing for a company who are really aware of the environment.

If you're just joining me I'll give you a bit of background...

I began working with Madison Park back in January of this year and have really enjoyed the experience of working with them. I have, so far, designed 2 Christmas cards (for 2008), a birthday card, a thank you card and now I'm doing a mother's day and valentines day.
