Yay! Business cards, postcards, stickers, stamper and free business card holder!

Yay! Business cards, postcards, stickers, stamper and free business card holder. Snazzy!

I’ve used VistaPrint before for business cards (I have ones just saying that I’m an ‘artist’ on them) but this time I decided to just spend a little bit extra and put some decent images on there. I think they look pretty good, don’t you? Top left is the (open) business card holder with business cards in there, the card holder was free. Top right is the stamper with my name, and URL, in it. Middle right is one of the ‘address’ labels, but I’ve put my name, email and URL on it. And bottom is the postcard with four images on the front and one on the back (not shown). All in all it cost about £45 (incl P&P, by courier) for:

  • 250 business cards
  • 140 stickers
  • 1 stamper
  • 100 postcards, and:
  • a business card holder.

This blog will still have some art related stuff in it, but it’ll be more tech related (which is where it gets most of it’s hits from) and the pet/wildlife portrait stuff will be in the root of the URL (http://ronnietucker.co.uk) which also has a link to here via a ‘Tech Blog’ link.Similar Posts:

Three new pieces of artwork, and one tech/geek review. Let’s start with the artwork:

American Werewolf

As you can no doubt guess, this was inspired by the werewolf design used in the ‘American Werewolf in London‘ movie.

Polar Bear

… and last, but not least:

Elephant

So, I’ve been kept busy lately. As ever, all (and more!) are for sale in both my Etsy, and Boundless Gallery, stores.

On the geek front, I’ve been busy playing with my T-mobile G1 (aka: Google phone). £200 for a phone, ouch! But honestly, it’s money well spent. I’ve never been so impressed by a mobile phone, the things it can do are just amazing. Read my review of it to see what I mean…

Also, keep an eye out for my work appearing on the front page of Boundless Gallery on Sunday (tomorrow). Seems that I’ve been chosen to appear in their ‘Discover an Artist‘ section. From Boundless:

You will be among the artists and galleries featured on our “Discover an Artist” section on Sunday, Feb 8, 2009.

Each day we select a total of fifty artists and galleries to randomly appear on the homepage in the “Discover an Artist” tab. Artists are displayed five at a time and change every time the page is loaded, so each artist appears in about 10% of homepage views.

These fifty artists are also shown with up to three of their works on our “Discover an Artist” page. The artists are listed in a random order which changes hourly throughout the day.
