Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted. Albert Einstein

I have been thinking very seriously about business card options and I keep coming back to the simple and special idea of just making them one by one. I really don't see why, as an artist committed to earth friendly art I would design cards and have them printed. There are many aspects about what is for sale on etsy that I was not expecting to see and that's just facts, but my fact is that I want my art to mean something and I want my customers to feel that connection as much as possible. If I am reaching out to a stranger, I feel I have a better chance at making a friend for the environment by handing out a homemade recycled card. One person can make a difference. Small is something. Big isn't everything. I can state this as a fact.

There's a little more information on the card backs, but I am not quite that nerdy as to get a photo of that! :) Oh ~ By the way, these are made from a print of a watercolor I did years ago. I've had these scraps and finally! I have some something with them. One was used as part of an ACEO. These are the last pieces. I plan to use all sorts of thing for future calling cards.

Here's to handmade and the personal touch. We need a little more of both in this world. And, I have to tell you, I thoroughly enjoyed making these. I was making some return addresses when I got this idea. I had a blast making those, too. Hope my readers are all having a lovely evening. Happy Spring!
