💜 The color purple relates to the imagination and spirituality. It stimulates the imagination and inspires high ideals. 💜#Repost @justacard with @get_repost ・・・ NEXT WEEK - It's JUST A CARD WEEK - a whole week devoted to shouting from the rooftops about how truly amazing and special small businesses are!

@justacard JUST A CARD, just a book, just a gift - every sale ADDS UP and means the world to independent creative businesses. What do they mean to you?! Our logo says 'I support Independents', it says 'I value creativity, diversity, quality". It says "I'm an artist, maker, independent creative business and I value your support"! Put the logo onto your website, business cards, blogs. Display our free to download posters. The logo is FOR YOU! It's there to help and encourage sales. I designed it when I set up the campaign (@sarahhamiltonprints ) here - The idea is the red bird loosely symbolises a Red Cross - aid, assistance and support. The bird is flying holding a peace symbol - the olive branch, or in this case leaves - symbols of spring, hope and life. Help our bird to fly. PLEASE use our handle @justacard to tell people about this campaign to raise awareness.. We are getting the message across that EVERY sale, however small, is so important to independent businesses. They are the difference between a thriving business or sleepless nights worrying about the future. Small businesses are about passion, creativity and quality. If you agree then please - pass the message on. It's one thing to say 'Support Independents' it's quite another to reach into your pocket and BUY SOMETHING! It is only by saying this over & over again that we're making a difference. Thanks loads for all the HAVE YOU MET support yesterday - so appreciate it. Have a wonderful creative day friends! 😊 😊 😊 #justacard #wemakecollective #makersformakers #wearethemakers #supportthemakers #capturemycraft #sharinghandmadejoy #prettycreativestyle #slowliving_create #buyfolk #prettycreativelife #seekinspirecreate#thenativecreative #handmadeisbest#modernmaker #bestmadehandmade
