TOO... MUCH... TO HANDLE!

I've been swamped with soo much work but I've been finding ways to manage my time wisely and making sure I don't get swept in the ocean of crap that I have to get done by the end of this month. I'm taking a break from designing my post cards to show you guys what they're going to hopefully look like...


I'm so happy with my idea and I really hope they turn out exactly like the way I envision them. I'm still poking around on Google to find good print sites that will get them printed quickly but professionally (and will fit into my budget). I'm leaning towards Overnightprints.com but if I find anywhere else with better prices I might go with them. I have to remember quality over quantity or price or whatever that saying goes, but holy moly is this graduation stuff expensive (speaking of expenses, I got my total for what I owe in student loans. OHHH man does it hurt. I really do hope it pays off in the long run though)! I used my student mentorship project that I have been working on with John Schwegel on the front of the card. That piece will be showcased in my school's main gallery later this month. I've never had my work in a professional gallery before so I'm really excited to see what other people have to say about it.

In other news...

- I got my business cards in the mail. I'm happy with they way they look!

- Another awesome thing I'll have at my senior show is temporary tattoos of my illustration logo. I ordered them from Straytats.com - SUPER anxious to get those in later this week (I even got a big one that matches my dress to wear for the show!).

- I'll be ordering my post cards and personalized stamps later tonight.

- ALSO! This weekend, I'll be attending the AIGA BlueRidge & GFAF Portfolio Bootcamp in Frederick, MD. A group of professionals will be reviewing my work and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I don't leave the Cultural Arts Center in tears. Haha!

I think that's about it with the updates. Sorry this hasn't been entirely too exciting; I'm a busy girl right now!
