Today's @justacard prompt is all about what's new. Don't worry, I've not started selling second-hand shoes, so bear with me on this. It's something new I've been bouncing back & forth in my head for aaaages, but I keep parking it on the "ideas for later" shelf in my brain. SO, something I'm thinking about starting next is, products using my colour photography, BUT that idea has now mushroomed. 🍄 So yup, I was thinking a set of abstract colour block postcards, calendar, prints etc, BUT my brain took that idea a step further. It went from book covers, magazine covers and then....ALBUM COVERS!!! 😆As a complete music nut (I have to listen to music every day, I actually feel barren without it), to work with a band on their album cover would seriously be the stuff of dreams. 😍 But but but, how on earth do I make that happen? Roll up, roll up, abstract colour photography album covers for sale! 😂I mean, that's crazy, right? What do I do? Should I start with the set of postcards and work my way up? Anybody want to collaborate with me on this? What do you reckon? I really want to get this off the idea shelf and the ball rolling! Would love, love, love to hear your thoughts! Thank youuuuuuu! 😁🌈🙌🏻💕📸 #justacard #justacardweek #ideasintoreality #colourphotography #albumcoverdesign #albumcoverdesign #albumcovers #magazinecover #magazinecovers #bookcoverdesign #bookcovers
Today's @justacard prompt is all about community & sharing the love, yeah! ✌🏻 I've tagged as many super-duper-community-creative-troopers as I can. These people keep the creative disco lights on. Whether it's daring to be different in design, speaking up about the creative world, or giving help, support & encouragement, they are a true inspiration to me. What they have is boundless & active creative community spirit. They add even more disco lights to the creative world & encourage everyone to dance under them. YEAH! 🙌🏻🌈❤️🎉💃🏻😍💪🏻💕✨ #justacard #ukcreatives #creativeworld #ukcreativity #creativesgonnacreate #creativespirit #worktogether #communityspirit #justacardweek #strongertogether #letsworktogether
The @justacard message is so important to me. By campaigning to keep small businesses alive, thriving & kicking, they help indie businesses like mine shout from the rooftops about our totally unique, beautifully made, brilliant, make you giggle with glee, make someone else giggle with glee, heart melting, stand out from the crowd, bespoke, not to be found anywhere else, colourful gifts, jewellery, prints, clothing, home wares, stationery, art, accessories & all those items that, quite frankly, can't be pigeonholed into a category! 🎉The #justacardcampaign makes me feel proud of saying what I do & what my fellow indie biz owners do too. It makes me feel part of a community that supports each other, working together to keep the world jam packed with gorgeous alternatives. It encourages me to bring my creative ideas to life. It helps me say this: by simply buying one thing from an indie biz, you not only give yourself & the owner a jump up and down with happiness feeling, but you keep the world a wonderful, fascinating, incredible & exciting place to be. Don't shop small (online, gallery, local cafe, artisan market etc) and that will vanish like someone turning off the disco lights. That would be rubbish. Don't turn the disco lights. #supportsmallbusiness #shopsmall #indiebizowner #etsyshopowner #ukcreatives #buyindiemade #buyhandmade #keephandmadealive #handmadecommunity
Bonjourno! 👋🏻This week I'm joining in on the fab @justacard Insta challenge and today's prompt is ~ YOU 🌈So, here's me, Jo, Joanna, JoJo, the 3 names I go by. No one has ever used all 3 at once, that would be crazy. 😁I'm an indie biz owner & freelance copywriter, who can only pull daft expressions when facing the camera. Seriously, I think I might have a problem with this 😂I design, make & sell colourful & fun gifts, jewellery, homewares, accessories & stationery ✏️I've been running my biz since 2012 & regularly think the Fun Police are going to turn up and tell me to stop 👀 That's especially true because my former career was researching, writing & managing how information is communicated in order for it to be found 🎉 When I'm not working, my interests make me sound like I'm a confused WI member 😂 Knitting, festival partying, birdwatching, gigs, gardening, watching live comedy, writing poems, being picked on at live comedy shows because I'm laughing really loud, sewing clothes, making mix tapes (cds), cooking, photographing colourful things, getting glued to a book...the list goes on. I'm really good at waffling on, so I'll stop now. Your go. Tell me a bit about you. Are you a confused WI member too? 😂🌈✂️☕️💃🏻🍪🎉🍓🍭 #justacard #indiebiz #indiebizowner #creativebizowner #freelancecopywriter #smallbizowner #smallbusinessowners #etsyshopowner #ukbusinesswoman #onlineshopowner #indiebusiness
