My Weblog

Just to clarify.

Thank you so much for all your nice messages and emails.

No I am not quitting designing right now. I am investigating some other options so I am not sure what the future holds right now.

Digital scrapbooking has grown in leaps and bounds since I started as a designer and in the last few months lots of changes have taken place. Not all of them have been postive.

It truly is difficult to continue to produce a good quality original product and sell it for a reasonable price. I love designing, I love being original and I really try to give the best customer service I can deliver. But this is my living, if I was doing it for a hobby it would be so much easier to justify the time :) It is all supply and demand and the supply far exceeds the demand and though I believe I have been very succesful it is a time consuming occupation for a healthy return.

With the issues of pirates it is heart breaking to see your products being distributed in that way. I design for a living for my family so it really feels like someone is taking from your family when that happens. It has greatly harmed my business this month. So I am at a crossroads ... I dont have enough time to chase that down and design. I am considering an option to sell in a consigment store but I am not sure that is the total answer.

So yes TADA is still open for a little while as I figure things out :) I promise to let you know.

For now I am clearing eveyrthing up and getting rid of lots of products so have a clearance sale on.

Thanks so much

CLEARANCE SALE

I have a heap of new products in store - a new Spring Serenade Catalogue and some beautiful new flowery sets called Flourish. Grab the catalogue for a free gift (this finishes tomorrow)

But mainly this post is about a Clearance Sale. While I consider the future of my store I am clearing out a heap of stuff that will be discontinued.

50% off over 85 products that will be discontinued.

and up to 35% off a heap of other products (check the specials section).

I want to thank you for your support of my store. Being a digital designer has been one of the most fun but time consuming things I have ever done.
