Mr Elephant Presents 2nd Birthday Bank Holiday Celebration

I will be hosting a stall at this event at the Hare & Hounds in Kings Heath, Birmingham on Saturday 23rd May. The 4 room festival-style event runs from 3pm - 3am, and will incolve lots of workshops (3-7pm) as well as a great lineup of some groundbreaking international artists, and inspirational birmingham artists, promoters, bands, djs, vjs, and local orgs, with plenty of ways for everyone of all ages and tastes to get involved with the festivities.

On my stall I will be selling a selection of cards, and posters, and will have an ordering service so if anyone fancies a custom poster, I will make it up and send it on to them after the event. Really looking forward to this!

New Items on etsy.com, and the marketing begins!

I managed to take some photos of my cards, although I'm not completely happy with them. It's difficult to get the lighting right and they look really plain compared to others' photos. I'm thinking of putting them on some graph paper to re-photograph, so we'll see how that looks at the weekend. Anyway, I've got 5 cards on the site now:

I made a visit to the flea market at the custard factory at the weekend and put some of my business cards out. I've also today designed some flyers for distribution around the city. Here they are:



I've also joined the etsy Midlands team. You can view their blog here:

New Etsy Shop!

So I've set up a shop on etsy.com. It's very new at the moment and I currently only have my posters displayed, but am planning on photographing my cards at the weekend and getting them up too. Then it'll be time to get marketing!
Here's a link to my shop:
