Business Cards

I love my business card. Customers love that it has actual stitching on it. I usually 'fess up and tell them that I've outsourced that responsibility to Mom, who stitches most of my cards for me (and lots of design elements too) these days. Some people ask permission before taking one!

I received a phone call last week from a woman who was camping the previous weekend with some girl scouts, and found a backpack that didn't belong to her group. She was going through it for clues as to the owner and the only identifiable thing she found was 3 of my business cards! I don't know any girls around the age she was asking about and I told her a lot of people take my business cards. I wonder if she ever found the owner?

Just the other day I was remembering back when I came up with this idea of stitching a design on each business card and tried the first one. You know how you get that ka-klung (like the Law & Order sound) in your chest, in your heart, when something is so right? Yeah, that happened.

I was very intrigued to run across all these very cool business cards yesterday! Wow, such creativity! They are clearly more expensive than the average business card but I bet they are kept and the businesses are remembered.

I collect business cards of my vendor friends. I keep them in a notebook filled with those business card sheet protectors. I think of them as little works of art in themselves!

I'm having a little trouble getting going with my KNK Groove. I emailed Guru Sandy so I'm about to look at some of the things she suggested about the settings. At first read-through of her email, I feel like I've done those things but I'm going to slowly and methodically make sure. Yeah - me - slow & methodical, I can do that. Can too!

(Darcy, I may be in touch with you too!)

My first order of business will be to cut and pierce sheets of business cards. I gave away tons this past weekend. I found myself rationing them a little bit towards the end. I have 8 left. (Mom - help?)
