BUSINESS CARDS — STUDIO BLOG

Hi guys, it’s me, that girl katie, Life has been really hectic the past few weeks. One reason is because I took time out of my regular routine to attend The Alt Summit Winter, a blogging conference in Salt Lake City. I drove down to the conference with a few goals and came back refreshed and excited to continue on this blogging journey. I also came back with a speeding ticket....I guess I shouldn’t Drive + Design!

I have attended The Alt Summit Winter before and knew showing up with hip business cards that show a bit of your personality is not just a great idea it’s a smart idea. So, this year I did just that and here is how I did it.

I bought the InstaxShare and followed the steps to connect it to my phone and print out some pictures of myself. It’s not often I get the camera turned around on me so slim pickings on photos but I only needed a few.

I then used my label maker and printed out my web address and VOLIA I was done.

I met a variety of talented + inspiring + creative + kind women. Here are some of the business cards I rounded up and so worth checking out what these fabulous ladies are up to.

1)Kids Are The Worst 2)Hale Me A Cab 3)Tropic Of Candycorn 4)Wendys Hat 5)Iterate Social 6)Katie Dudley Photography 7)Design Mom 8)Art Bar Blog 9)Inchworm Academy 10)Designers Collective 11)And We Play 12)Little Sun Hat

I gained a lot new contacts + a bunch of tips + heaps of advice. My “To Do List” for That Girl Katie has a ton more ideas and goals on it, such as learning to take better pictures and buying some equipment that will help me achieve a more professional look while saving a lot of time in the editing room.

I also walked away with a notebook full of inspirational sayings. Lisa Congdon was the keynote speaker and she voiced a lot of Lessons and Lesson # 3 is still ringing very loud in my ear,

“Let go of the idea that someday it will all be perfect”

I feel I am somewhat new to the blogging world but I am slowly figuring it out one post at a time while building a community one follower at a time in a fun and creative non-perfect kind of way.

So, a BIG thank you for continuing to check out my non-perfect blog.

Hey, it's me, that girl katie, Last week I went to Alt Design Summit with a good friend of, Grace Home Design. I had a blast and met a lot of fabulously creative peeps along the way. I also left with a lot of good advice that has my mind spinning.

I tried to collect as many business cards as possible while I was there and here are a few of them.

Since returning home, I have spent my evenings checking out everyone's website and wow, everyone is so incredibly talented.

I have a lot of ideas on how to grow my website/blog. First, I need to find a way to better manage my time. But today, my 2nd semester program in Interior Design and Architecture starts.

I am reminded of a saying I grew up hearing from my mom "busy people are happy people".

An extra shout out to Red Stamp who gave me the most amazing gift package. They are definitely my new “GO TO” for cards and invitations.

Thanks to all for a wonderful conference.
