It going to take a pretty big event to prompt me to write two blogs in one day! I was sitting at work creating a nice freebie in Photoshop that I'll be offering to all of my dear Etsy customers very soon when I got a phone call. It was Dan, and he sounded kind of funny. He ask how I was feeling, how was my day, etc. and I thought...oooo-kayyyy what's wrong. So I asked in my most unconcerned voice, "What's up?" His reply, "Weeell, I have two big boxes here from Llewellyn. " Silence. Whaaaaa???!!!
So we gabbed excitedly about, "We know what it is, it has to be, oh my Gods, what time are you coming home, I haven't opened it yet, I'll be home soon, We'll wait for you." Kinda like that. I finished up the design work, (I'm dedicated to my sweet fans!) then I headed home all a-tither.
I hope the pictures look ok, my hands were shaking like mad, they still are. Gods, I'm so cool, what a dork!
Two big boxes, big Llewellyn Logo, right there in my living room. |
Ahhh...the label, what's it say? Voice of the Trees, THAT'S what it says....booo-yaaah! |
Look at 'em all, exploding right out of the box! |
And of course the Cats had to get involved, I think they have given their approval, rubbing all over the carton. |
I had to open one of the packs, so you can see how nice it's all packaged up. |
I love, love, love the back of the packaging, it really is lovely! I couldn't be more delighted! |
hugs, hugs, hugs all around!
Mickie
Order yours from Voice of the Trees on Etsy, Llewellyn, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon
Good for you Mickie! I'm so excited for you :)...Hopefully in about a year or so I'll be writing a blog about the same thing! Would'nt that be awesome???
ReplyDeleteOh how wonderful, Mickie! Getting a box of decks fresh-off-the-presses is one of those peak experiences, don't you think? I hope you relish the moment and celebrate another big accomplishment. I can't wait to get a copy so I can drool over your lovely publication. Congratulations!
