Thank You For Features And Sales! :D
It was really delightful to be informed by Karen Cook that my Love Is Lighting Up Somebody Else’s Darkest Moments is being featured side by side with Karen’s at the RB’sFeatured Wall Art And Greeting Cards :D It’s my first feature there, so exciting!! :D
Many thanks to the Singapore Group for featuring both Heartstrings and Wish Upon A Star too!! :D
My sales in zazzle have also started to pick up, I have 4 sales this week… Sales at Zazzle was really slow for me initially…no sales for first 2 months, it got really discouraging…but thought I would just press on and see how,glad I did because I made close to 20 sales in the last 1 month plus or so,really counting my blessings everyday for that. I am about 3 plus months into Zazzle :D
I want to mention special thanks to Ujean for being that constant beacon of light for me at zazzle…for those who are in Zazzle, maybe like me,you may feel like a small fish in the ocean,so tiny and lost there at times. Ujean visited my gallery many times and often gave me encouraging comments and suggestions,enough fuel from her to help me last another 3 months,haha! Thanks so much Ujean! :D
Here are the cute small items I sold this week :D Many thanks to Susan who bought the Love Mediations products, our dear Midori who bought Mountain Whispers Button and a lady named Holly who bought the Love Is Lighting Up Somebody Else’s Darkest Moments Button :D

Lisa Marie Rob...
Fantastic… and so well deserved! =D I’m glad you stuck at it with Zazzle because your art is fantastic. It just takes a while for word to get around. Things were slow for me at first too (although I did have a sale within 4 days of joining) but things are now looking promising. Yesterday I sold some stamps and 21 magnets!!!!!
udonchow replied
Wow!! Congrats Lisa, that’s so cool,sure sounds more than promising,I hope you make it to become a zazzle featured galleryl!! Thanks for sharing that with me, it’s so encouraging and inspiring, let’s spur each other on! :D
Karin Taylor
congrats to you and Karen Ellen!!
wonderful news, i’m so happy to hear your work is getting the recognition it so deserves, and same with Karen..you are both such special and dear friends to me :)
udonchow replied
Thanks Karin for your love and support!! Some things just cant be rushed,that’s what I learnt the past 3 months :D
Louise Parton
what a cool idea – if i brought stickers to track my exercise, the stickers would never get out of the packet :S :D going over to have a look at your stickers on zazzle!
udonchow replied
hahaha! Me too! :D
I think I have only about 10…not all of them looked ok after cropping into size of round stickers, they should have squarish ones, that will work well for most of my stuff :D
Rajee

Sounds fantastic that you are doing so well over at zazzle! Good for you and congrats on your sales. Im happy for you! Your owls are adorable. You must be putting in alot of work in order to sell. I only had 2 sales in 2 months and Im feeling discouraged. I make more sales (which isnt very often) here than anywhere else. I get plenty of red ribbons but no sales.
udonchow replied
You are better than me in that regard :D I had 0 sales in my first 2 months. Like what Lisa Marie said in her above posting…it does take time to be noticed and for others to become familiar with you and your offerings. So far, the designs that I have sold all have no red ribbons:D Keep the faith my friend, the stars shine the brightest when the sky’s the darkest :D
red addiction
awwww, you are so sweet! thank you for your support!!!
