New Etsy Business Cards and Snow!

It's always fun to get packages in the mail. Of course I had been anxiously checking my order status since I ordered these new cards from Vistaprint on the 12th. Back when I was making fun new graphics for the blog, shop, etc. I set up a card design too. I wasn't planning on ordering any right away, but after sending out a few orders I realized I was almost out of both the big and little moo cards I had been using. "Yay!" I thought "I get to see how my new design looks printed!"

I'm very happy with how these turned out. The cards stock on these is not as heavy (but still substantial enough to be satisfying) as what you get when you order from moo, but there's also a big price difference. And even though I used the free shipping they got here much faster than I was expecting. I've had fun pairing my moo cards with my packaging, but it will be nice not to have to worry about sending out cards with pictures of items I may not have in stock anymore.

We also got a decent amount of snow today. Well, sort of. It wasn't sticking to the ground much. For a while it was snowing really nicely. (see the image on the left below) Big fat snowing, pretty dense, a perfect winter wonderland. It made me happy and I wanted to go out and frolic in it, but by the time I could get myself wrapped up in coats, etc. the flakes were getting smaller and anything that had managed to stick to the ground was starting to melt. Which in a sense is the ideal snow, pretty when it falls, then it goes away before causing too many problems.

 

Of course it's a different story for those further out from the city, and some businesses did shut down today. Also, if you're ever curious as to whether it is snowing in Portland, this site will keep you updated!
