Crawling

I’m still here, crawling along! Actually, I have been working really hard, but it feels like results from working super hard are crawling along!

TAGS! TAGS! TAGS! I have been busy making tags. I use the cricut machine and cricut design space to design and cut my tags. If you haven’t heard of it a cricut machine cuts paper, cardstocks, fabrics, and more into whatever shape you want. You have a lot of options when it comes to shapes. You can use one of Cricut Design Space’s free shapes, make a shape by merging 2 or more of the shapes, buy from a selection of shapes and others designs (cost about $0.99 each from what I was looking at), or pay a monthly subscription for full Cricut Design Space Access. You can also upload an image of your choice. I used an awesome free art program called Krita to make designs and then uploaded them to Cricut Design Space. Another thing I learned to do is print then cut with your Cricut! You just do a quick and easy calibration with you Cricut and printer and then print and then over to the Cricut and ta da all that hard work paid off! It was a lot of time and hard work for me to learn how to use Cricut Design Space, but it has been fun each new discovery I make. That says a lot because normally I just get really overwhelmed and frustrated and have to walk away for a bit. I still have some more to design, but I am loving the beautiful profession and clean-cut tags with my logo, design, price, and other information!!!!

I am also working on figuring out which sales and markets to apply for this year! I know I am late for some of them but it’s okay because I can start off at smaller sales to ease my way into the market scene. :)
