FREE 5 Cards in 5 Days Challenge inside
|
Hello Reader, The reason I'm in your inbox today is to tell you about an amazing FREE opportunity that is right around the corner, and I don't want any of you to miss out! As you probably already know, I'm all in on greeting cards. Almost all of my hand painted and digitally created art is designed for vertical 5x7 greeting cards. It's so easy when your canvas size and orientation is the same every time! In fact, let me just list some of the main reasons I love this niche:
When I finally decided to fully commit to the niche of greeting cards, Delores Nanskret's FREE 5 Cards in 5 Days Challenge began and I jumped in. I'm so glad I did, because shortly after I participated in this challenge and got my cards out in the world I began finding some real success. I sold over 6,000 of one card during Christmas time that year! If you want to hear the details, about my 'viral card', take a listen to the podcast HERE. Here are the details:From September 21–25, you’ll work towards creating five greeting card designs in five days, with Delores guiding you along the way. Past participants have used the challenge as the push they needed to start building their greeting card collections and putting their artwork out into the world. Michelle, for example, went on to achieve more than 1,000 card sales on Card Isle after participating in the challenge. Natalie uploaded 100 cards during the challenge period and celebrated her first two sales soon afterwards. Of course, everyone’s results will be different, but that’s what I really like about this challenge. It gets you creating, It gets you experimenting. And most importantly, it helps you move from thinking about making greeting cards to actually making them. What You'll Explore During the Challenge You’ll receive: ✔ Creative prompts and lessons to help you develop your card designs ✔ Guidance from artist and educator Delores Naskrent ✔ Resources to help you create and present your artwork ✔ Support for both Affinity Designer and Procreate artists ✔ A creative community working through the challenge alongside you By the end of the five days, you could have five new greeting card designs ready to become part of your portfolio, product range, or growing card collection. Hope to see you there! Kim P.S. Know another artist who keeps saying they want to do more with their artwork? Send them the challenge too and create your cards together. P.P.S. Just so you know, the link above takes you to the FREE challenge, so there’s absolutely no obligation to purchase anything. After you sign up, you’ll be given the option to upgrade to the VIP experience.

Hello Reader, How are you all doing? I am currently looking out at a very smoky and hazy sky due to a multitude of wildfires in surrounding areas. I know several people who have relatives and friends who have actually had to evacuate their homes. This is so scary! Meanwhile, the heat just keeps coming. Yesterday as I was driving home from dropping my ballot off (last minute of course!) the sun was just red as the smoke covered it and the sky complete haze. It's so surreal! This current...
Hello Reader, I hope this finds you well and enjoying summer. I sincerely hope you had a great 4th of July and that you and yours kept safe! I will start this Newsletter off with an epic pic I managed to get of my youngest son posing in a smoke bomb on the 4th: I posted this on my personal Facebook page and someone actually asked me if it was real or AI! It's all real, because I wouldn't even know how to make this in AI in the first place! Okay, on to the reason why you subscribe to this...
