Graphics and sign making

I love designing graphics, and that is how we started making our signs.  I was contacted yesterday by a customer who absolutely loved her camper sign ( good job hubby).  I then spent 2 days designing a new sign for her.

I should have charged more, but what the heck, we are still a new little business, and at this point am just happy having a repeat customer.  I am so thrilled with this design, that I may make it as a regular item in the shop.

Here is the design:

Now we will take this design and transfer it into the pine wood.  I cannot wait to see how this turns out.  I will take pics once it is done.

I also listed this little guy on Facebook, this is hand painted, so a different technique, but I love the black and white, this one sold the day I put it in our group. 

I am really proud of not just the sign, but the pure white background that I managed to capture. Normally I think it is a boring look, but I think it looks great with the black.

Well, record heat is heading this way, everyone keep cool!

Trying new things is always fun

I started my other Etsy shop a few years ago called Groovy Graphics.  I took my knowledge of graphics and applied them to my wood sign shop.  My husband wanted to know if I could then take some of those designs from the wood shop and create printable graphics from them. I really did not want to, but then I found people selling digital art prints.

Yes!  I could add some fun new things to my graphics shop, and hopefully generate a little more income from that shop.  I am having a blast creating these, and will probably print some for myself.
