When time is not a friend

When it comes to running a business the one thing that becomes an issue is time. There is simply not enough time to get all the necessary things done plus work on art. As a business owner and having this issue its time to look for solutions to help combat this problem. As a new business owner the idea of hiring someone to help me is not ideal at the moment. So the next solution is perhaps apps and automation. As a business owner working smarter and not harder is the ideal goal in mind. So with that said lets explore what works and what doesn’t work.

Colorful Dimensions 2 Arts is always on the move doing things from cleaning, organizing, crafting, or creating art. Along with all of it comes the sound of silence or buzzing bugs or outside vehicles. To help drown out these sounds I like to use anything from digital music to audible books. However, before I can explain more let me get a disclosure out of the way.

Building a Card Front

Here at Colorful Dimensions 2 Arts after long days working behind the scenes on administrative projects, its time to work on a card front. For the beginning of the project a 1/4 panel from a 8″ X 10″ is used. Using my most favorite ruler proceed to measure equal 1/2″ nicks on either side using my favorite pencil. Careful to note the center of the 1/4 panel. The center is important to note because that’s where we begin our image stamping. More on this later. Back to measuring nicks. After they are all measured out and made certain that’s where the nicks should be. We then want to draw lines and making sure that they are all even. It may take a few tries to get them perfect.

Project Using Scrap Wood

Creative ideas come when you least expect them. From a few magazines to hundreds of ads in the email box. Some will be good and some not so good. But when do we find the time to do them all? This is the question we all face as crafters. The next question is do I have the supplies? Supplies do play a major factor into whether or not we work a particular project. It may be that we are just a few supplies short or need a lot or even have it all. In either case, we need to begin some form of planning to get to the end result.
