Shiny New Bookmarks!

 {Promotional Bookmarks, 2012}

I'm going to an SCBWI Iowa event this weekend and I wanted to have a fun little promotional freebie to give away. I'm not planning to send out postcards until the spring ( after baby is born and my book project is done) so I thought about something that could be a non-mailer. I decided on a bookmark to start getting the word out about the book I'm currently working on. The bookmark has one of the illustrations from the book and all of my contact information. For the conference, I punched holes in the top and added a coordinated ribbon to fancy it up! I still have several that are unpunched in the event I want to mail a few out. As always, I recommend Overnight Prints because the quality is good, the prices are fair and they ship really fast (even at standard rates).

I received my postcards from Overnight Prints*today. This is my second postcard for 2010. I just sent some out in February so I will probably wait until May to send them out. I am really pleased, once again, with the quality for the price.

*I am not sponsored by Overnight prints... I just really like them!

My promotional cards were delivered Monday, so I thought I would post some pictures of them. I always like to see what other artists do for promotion, I think its interesting to see different approaches to trying to catch some attention from a potential client! Hope these bring me a little work!!

Promo Peek & 50 Red Envelopes #2

This is a peek at a piece of my promo illustration that I hope to finish soon and make into a postcard for the Summer of 08! It's an oil painting on board.

This is card #2 of my 50 card challenge. I used ribbon, stamp letters and a stamp I had created from a cardinal illustration I did. I think this one has a nice scrap-book-y look to it. I love trying new things, and I hope all 50 cards look unique in one way or another.

Promo Cards

These are the Promo cards I made and sent out last week. I really hope they yield a job or two!
