enJOY it

an archived personal and craft blog from Elise Blaha Cripe.

Every six months to a year, I get find myself ready to order new business cards (from overnightprints.com). Sometimes I've ran out and so I need more. Other times I just feel like a new design. This time around, I actually had something to change on the cards.

I recently bought the domain name enjoyitblog.com which is just a simple re-direct to the typepad site that you're reading right now. It took minutes. Just minutes to set up and is something I should have done nine years ago. Now if someone asks, "hey, what's your blog address?" (you know, as people on the street often do) I can reply with something easier to say and spell. (Instead of "that's Blaha. Yes. BLAH-HA. Which, BTW, hasn't even been my last name for 4.5 years, please don't get me started.")

Anyway. I was thrilled to get to update my business cards. And, I figured while I was changing the text on the back as might as well update the photos. Six fun ones from the past year – all semi-matching in color and very matching in concept. I MAKE STUFF. That's the 1000 words these photos are each trying to say.

I'll be shipping them out along with shop product this year as I start to make the shift from MAKE29 (yesterday was the final edition launch!!!!!) to various other shop items (what these various items will be is still up for internal debate). This is totally separate from the GET TO WORK BOOK™ branding which will have a look that's less "I MAKE STUFF" and instead is more "GET TO WORK." Can't wait to get that going. The details are so fun.

    Love your stuff but just a thought: more space between the lines of your text…it looks like a hot mess jumble of letters and not very readable. The type lover in me cries looking at it.

    I love your new business cards, they are so unique – not the typical type with a cute logo. Were they hard to set up?

    Oh, super cool cards! They shout Elise! 🙂
    Also came by to let you know you inspired me with your 2014 in Numbers, and I’ve done one of our own – on my blog if you want to see them.
    Thanks for so much inspiration!

    They look fabulous! I’s totally wishing I could make a fresh batch of business cards myself right now. However, I have no idea where or to whom to hand them… 🙂
