The Thankful Calendar

In late October, Julia from the "Thank You" Project contacted me about this incredible idea to collaborate on a calendar project.   I can't tell you how glad I am.  It has been heart warming to read all the thankful comments Julia collected on her blog, and hard to narrow down to just 12!   
Each month features 'thankful' quotes by real people from all over the world that Julia collected along with illustrations added from me.  Every time you look at your calendar, you can't help but be reminded to give thanks and focus on the positive and put a smile on your face. 
 I can't decide on my favorite quote! Can you?
 I really hope you follow Julia's blog.  It full of positiveness.
 get your own here or here.



A GIANT thank you to Julia and all those who's quotes we used.

torn

i love owning my own business, it is rewarding but it also comes with decisions.  my own decisions on what is the right thing to do.   right now, i'm torn between raising my invitation prices and/or outsourcing my printing... it has been weighing heavy on my mind for a couple months.  do i keep wedding invitations in house (notepads & stationery will continue to be printed here) like i've done since the beginning? do i keep the control over my output quality?  do i keep it in my hands, something that gives me personal satisfaction? but i'm not sure if that's important to my clients.  if i do this, i have to raise my invitation prices a bit, because while i love what i do, i need to make money, as well as, compensate for my supplies cost increasing.
