kittens & cabbages

i have a little show tomorrow -
so i made some new merchandise tags this evening.
Photobucket
this one is for all the mittens i made today.
it is 2" wide and 3" tall, big enough to really see and enjoy the vintage kitten illustration. i am in love with making mittens and can't wait to show them off.

q: is making fancy tags worth the time?
a: yes, they absolutely increase sales.

this little tag is smaller than a business card. it is something i like to have on my selling table so that i can give people my blog address.
Photobucket
why a cabbage?
because if i were a vegetable i would be a cabbage.

p/s i downloaded these wonderful free clip are images from clip art etc. then hand colored them in photoshop and added the text in corel draw.

I don't have photoshop and tried using Paint. Ity didn't work. Maybe there's a trick? maybe I just could not figure it out? The mittens are really something. But, oh, those hats...
