Carden Bach

ArtRba 

Whoop, whooop, whooooooop; my new 'Business Cards' have arrived.  Well, not so much 'Business', but more 'Point of Contact' cards.  Each ArtRba card represents an opportunity of staying in touch with all of those lovely people that we bump into as we meander our way through life.  The artwork used on the ArtRba card; is a little something of Venice that I painted in watercolour while enjoying this years holiday on the P&O Cruise Ship the MV Aurora.  As is so often the case, this watercolour painting of Venice was given away.  On this occasion the fortunate recipients were Steve and Jan from Bridgend in South Wales.  A lovely couple who we chatted to on a table next to us on the second night of our P&O Cruise Holiday to the Med.  



I couldn't afford any writing on the back of the ArtRba card, but thought that I could write down the web address whenever someone asked me about the ArtRba page on Social Media.  

It was a daunting experience designing the card on VistaPrint.  The task took far too long, and alas I'm not too task orientated these days.  But maybe the scariest bit was when I was going through the checkout process and the pound signs seemed to be racking up.  Although in all fairness, I'm well chuffed with the quality of the ArtRba card, the clarity of the writing, and the speed of delivery.

I'm also chuffed that the Vista guys and girls allow users to upload their own images to form the card background.  Nice one, and thankfully I had the foresight to use the tablet to photograph this particular watercolour painting before giving it away!
