NAMING AND NUMBERING: This month I have been busy naming and numbering all photos on the http://www. etsy.com/shop/cardsasart site. In addition, I have added over 250 cards this past month - so now close to 600 cards are available. Once the .com site is up you will be able to order larger prints in 5 x 7's and 8 x 10's. 
FARM MARKET: This past month we attended two more Downtown Appleton Indoor Farm Markets (see the attached pictures). We met a lot of new people and made a lot of new friends. We even started to recognize people from week to week and several stopped by to give us encouragement or to make additional purchases. It is so rewarding when people start to recognize what you are trying to do or say with your art. So thank you to all of you who support us in our new venture.

CALENDAR: I will be adding a calendar with my next update, posting all the Farm Markets, Art and Craft Shows, or Gallery Walks we plan to attend from May 1st through October 31st. We've also been asked to attend several events as exhibitors and this has been a real honor and a blessing. You all know how much I love to take pictures....and since I've only been "out there" for about 4 months this encourages and inspires me to take even more. As the calendar moves forward so does the change in seasons and with it the change in photos and prints. So get what you love now, as they are limited and they will be replaced with new pictures in the coming seasons.

SEASONS: With the changing of the seasons, I am also looking forward to the abundant travel opportunities here in Wisconsin and the Upper Midwest that really seem to blossom. Signs of new color, hope and renewal are everywhere. And with it my enthusiasm to capture all of it on film. Wish me luck, as the luckier I am the luckier you will be when searching for the perfect print, prints or "Collections".http://www.etsy.com/shop/CardsAsArt
COLLECTIONS: I'm still very inspired to create "Collections" so all my new offerings on the .com site and on etsy.com. Art in "Collections" are easily put together in groupings or galleries, which can easily fill an entire wall. Two "Collections" can easily be grouped together to add variation or texture, or to compliment and bring together groupings, or to add contrast and drama. Its fun to create your own gallery and to be able to swap the art out on a seasonal basis, and its as easy as swapping out candles or pillow,s if you use standard sizes in photos, prints, mats and frames.

"HAPPY SPRING!" The next time I talk to all of you I will be announcing the launch of the new .com site!
