“Cheers!”,  to my lovely new website!

By Alice on Friday 12th September 2008

YES! My new website is now up and running and out of breath!

There’s lots more information for my shop customers with a ‘Top design of the moment’ which links to the top ten greeting card designs of the month - to help with ordering decisons! There’s also an eco page all about how Alice Palace is helping the environment - greetings cards are now printed on recycled FSB board (the envelopes have been 100% recycled and the polybags have been biodegradable for over a year now).

Alongside doing all that was needed for the new website launch, I’ve been busy this week preparing for Top Drawer Autumn which is being set up tomorrow and runs from Sunday 14th till Tuesday 16th September (Lizzy’s Birthday!). On Monday I had an accounts splurge with Judith - and felt so very happy when she left beacuse it’s all up to date and everything!

Then I met Kate for lunch at Word of mouth and had some yummy soup and a hot chocolate - and Jemima came along too and tried to catch a few wasps (she actually ate one the other day).

I’ve also been working on greetings card designs for Splimple and have now nearly completed the first six.

And there’s been wedding invites and evening invites to complete for Sian and Iestyn in both Welsh and English which was fun - and some thank you cards for Victoria and Andy. I’ve been to see Em and Izzy for lunch on Wednesday which was a nice break although the water pump issue with the car is a bit of a pain - getting it fixed tomorrow - but was having to stop every 20 minutes to put new water in! And we had Carlyn and Paul (Mr & Mrs Secret-Diamonds) over for part two of ‘come dine with me’ - Mark made the starter (some savoury pancakes) and I made the main (a chicken, apricot, apple and wine concoction from the good food magazine) and we had icecream with maple syrup for pudding. I’ve also been finding time to ride Albi lots to get him fit enough to go on a horsey holiday! Very excited about that - and so’s he!
