BUSINESS CARDS ARRIVED

The new business cards showed up yesterday. There was an air of excitement and anticipation as I opened the package. Would they be as awesome as I imagined them to be? I’d spent a lot of time on the artwork – especially the paint splatters – and the layout.

Well I was heavily disappointed. Two major flaws I noticed immediately: the pencil drawing was too dark, and the layouts were not centered vertically. Ugh! Why did I order 400 for my first order?

When time permitted, I revisited the artwork to determine if the print company was at fault.

After careful evaluation, I concluded that it was actually my fault. *heavy sigh*

I set to work correcting the flaws in the design and then ordered 100 cards. Live and learn.

A note to my newsletter subscribers: please sign up again to receive my newsletter. I found a flaw in the code yesterday that was causing email addresses to not be saved in the database.
