Postcards and Business cards from Moo
The Accessible Art Fair starts tomorrow evening and I am packed and ready to go. I’ve had so much support from my readers here on CheeseWeb as well as my ACM Photography blog. Quite a few of you have said you are planning to visit the fair, so I’d like to give a little something back to show my appreciation.
I do a lot of printing through Moo.com in the UK. They do a great job printing my business cards, greeting cards and postcards. (No, I’m not getting anything from them for saying this but hey, Moo Crew, if you’re reading this and want to give me something, I can be bought!)
I have a beautiful stack of postcards sitting here beside me. I’d like you to have one, to send to a friend or keep for yourself. Just stop my booth at the Accessible Art Fair, introduce yourself and let me know you’re a blog reader. That’s it. You can have your pick of the cards (while supplies last of course).
For those of you who can’t make it to the fair, I’d still love to thank you for your support. So for the first 10 of you to comment and let me know you’d like a postcard, I’ll mail you one. I’ll send you an email to get your mailing address (don’t worry I won’t do anything nefarious with it) and, barring Belgian post calamities, you’ll get a photo postcard from moi. This is open to everyone so whether I’ve met you in real life or you’ve never even commented on CheeseWeb before, you’re still eligible.
Why all the postcards? Well, my digital art series is called Forgotten Postcards. But in all honestly I just love sending and receiving them. I’ve collected postcards myself forever and for the past year or so, I’ve been part of the Post-crossing project which I love. There’s nothing better than getting a beautiful card from halfway around the world. It sure beats getting only bills in the mail!
Also, don’t forget you have until Monday to get me your travel photos to win your very own custom Forgotten Postcard. You don’t have to be talented with a camera. Just tell me why you love the photo.
Have a great weekend and I hope to see you at the art fair!

What a lovely idea!
What time will you be there at the fair? We will drop by at some point, probably on the Sunday.

I will be there all weekend! I’ll make sure to set aside a couple of cards for you.

I won’t be able to make it to the fair, but I would love to receive one of your postcards through the mail! Mail that isn’t bills or something official is always nice, especially if it’s pretty.

Excellent! I’ll send you an email to get your address. If you don’t receive it for some reason let me know.

I love Moo too! I won’t be able to make it, unfortunately. We’re leaving tomorrow night for a 2-week trip. But I would love one of your postcards please. (If Brussels residents are eligible for the giveaway…)
I still haven’t gotten around to entering your contest for the Forgotten Postcard, but I will try to before we leave. Been so busy getting ready for this trip. Have fun at the fair and good luck!

Oh boy! I love postcards! Please send one to me, too! I hardly ever get any exciting mail, so this would be a real treat. (Barring any calamities with the Belgian post, as you say. You know I just wrote a rant about the French post, too! http://parisimperfect.wordpress.com/2010/05/28/la-poste/).
You’re so good to your blog readers. Thank you!

Hi Sion! I just sent you an email for your address. Let me know if you don’t get it. Hopefully between the Belgian and French postal systems I can send you some happy mail!

We’ve got a busy weekend planned but I will definitely try to pop along. It looks like there is a great selection of work there.
Alison says:

There is a great selection! I want to buy something from everyone but I’ll have to restrain myself. Even if you aren’t in the market to buy it’s a fun way to see the art and chat with the artists. Friday night there will be a bar and music as well.

Hi Alison, Hope the fair is a great success and that you will tell us all about it! I would also love a postcard… *wonders if I’m in the top 10* if I am lucky atleast the Belgian and Greek postal system won’t have to meet (and possibly clash?!) as I’m back in the UK!!

No problem Emily! There are still postcards left. I’ll send you an email for your address. If you don’t get it let me know!

Hi–Did I make the top 10? It looks like some repeat commenters up there. Sorry I missed your show. I was in Brussels in May.

You did indeed. I will send you an email for your mailing address. If you don’t get it then let me know.
