Creature Filled Country Life of a Hippie-Nerd Digital Designer

Bloomin’

Posted on May 2, 2011

Jodiann breaks Monday Blogger Silence to bring you …an advertisement. No, TWO, and possibly a third advertisement! Lucky YOU! …also to wish you a happy May! The month of May SO rocketh!

Kristine Darling is wishful thinking again up Canada way. Make-believing she might get summer or even spring soon she made this new kit Bloomin’. All she’s got so far is a brush with a tornado which DOES constitute for spring down here in Texas, but we were talking about KP weren’t we? I am clueless what it means in Canada? Duck?

Her Bloomin kit is in her store right now at substantial discount. Buy it and make a windblown Canuck smile!

Just to rub it in Kristine’s face I scrapped my garden blooms. I only get like 15 minutes of spring before the temps soar to 100 F ( 37 C). So sue me for dancing while the music is playing.

Can’t get enough of this red paper! LOVE it!! Or is it fuchsia? 

Remember the “I am not really 45 years old sale?” Still going!

2011_Jodiann_pre-birthday_DSW Turns out I can’t read a calendar either. Hey you already know I can’t count so no reason to hide it or even make up an excuse! *doink*  Midnight, Monday May 2nd CST is really the end date. SO you still have time to enjoy the best sale prices I will have until next May when I really WILL be 45!!

I love me.

I love messed up, fallible, crazy-talk me.

I am tickled to say I finished the May Design Toolbox  BEFORE May! Its at the drycleaners right now, um…quality checker’s. When it comes on back to me all pressed and sweet smelling I will send it right along. Here’s a peek of a few of the goodies.

A few of you said, “ Hey $7 is a chunk of change to kick out for my habit each month…even if its for 7 full-size products.” I lie. No one really said that. What was really said was, “ Would you take less for your Toolbox Thingy?” Shocked by the moxie of these 3 ladies, which I suspect all know each other. *Ting! Goes the light-bulb*  I said, “No.” BTW…just in case you thinking about going New Jersey Housewife on me. Still, it got me thinking.  I buy other designer’s monthly tools too and those run about $5 dollars. Would I buy one that’s $7 for the first time? Probably not.  Even if it had more stuff in it? Again. Probably not. That is my honest thought.

Now the first rule of sales marketing…yeah I took a class. Is NEVER apply your own cheapo thinking to a customer. You might be eating Raimen Noodles in the back of your car and trying to sell your novel to a big time movie producer. Don’t assume just because you can’t afford to pay a cool mill for movie rights this chick trying to choke down an egg white omelet can’t…you get where I am going?   

So I broke that hard and fast rule. So what?! There are a lot of sales marketers out there eating Raimen Noodles in the backs of cars. I’m going with my gut. The Moxie Sisters were telling me what most of you are thinking. Your just too polite to say.

So this next Toolbox is going to only be $5 sawbucks. No it will NOT be cheaper for ISBD,  Moxie Trio! I love your collective spunk, but $5 dollars is as low as I go. It will have 6 products instead of 7.  So its a little easier for me each month too. 

See? Everybody wins. 

Anyway, its Monday, I should be lovin’ on some oatmeal right about now. NOM.

Be back tomorrow to with a little “proposal” for all mad-skill typers out there.

Mwah! Happy Rockin’ May!

    Love your ‘garden blooms’ LO Bean! It’s kinda sad, but a lot of what we had here for early spring blooms have been beaten down by all the rain/hail and wind, even the flowering trees look pretty sad and beaten up… But the good news is, we’ve had a couple of really nice days in the past week or so…maybe soon we’ll even have 2 or 3 in a ROW, LOL…won’t that be nice!
