I am not really sure where my influences come from. I have worked a variety of odd jobs my entire life, and only recently began prerequisites for nursing school. Oddly, I consider my self both down to earth, and a daydreamer, how's that for opposites? I just make what I like and hope someone else likes them too! I never thought I would be learning woodworking, but being unemployed, alot of time on my hands, and an endless supply of wood at my disposal, I am trying very hard to make lemonade from lemons, lol. You guys tell me what you think my influences are, you seem to be very perceptive that way 

hi Janelle, I love wood grain, your bracelets are beautiful, maybe you are inspired by the material at hand . I dont think being down to earth is opposite but complimentary to day dreaming;-)

yep, I agree, all that too:-)

Love the design. I have a question sort of on/off topic... do you find that MOO cards are more acceptable to the standard business card for us artsy folks (I know they are shaped different so that could be a plus or minus)? Do you have an opinion on the cost difference between Moo's and professionally printed business cards? (OK, two questions)

-D-

My firends are arty types and they really enjoy the shape and variety of my cards, also they are more likely to keep them because they fit into their wallets easliy

I use mini cards, they are great and quite narrow, you will most likely need to reformat your design to fit it onto the card for best affect, maybe even use a part of the cat, so its more abstract. You can mess around with it on moo before you commit.
