Peru Paper Company

I haven't blogged in a while, and it's been even longer since I've mentioned anything about the cards, but that isn't because we haven't been working on them! LOTS is being done, with some very exciting changes coming soon, including new designs...
BABY

CHRISTMAS

GENERAL- perfect for thank yous, birthdays, etc.

...a new name....Peru Paper Company...with a new logo, seen below on the back of a card (thanks to Marianna, Jason, and Oscar for their input on the wording and layout of the back of the cards):



...and the biggest news being a website that is well under construction and should be up and running in about a month. From there, you'll be able to view the cards, place orders and pay online, and they will be delivered to your front door soon after your order is placed! But, just because the website isn't up yet, doesn't mean you can't order cards yet. Get in touch me (the new business email is grace@perupaper.com), and you can purchase cards, including the beautiful new designs, some of which are featured above.

Many thanks to Andy and Marianna with Fox Webco and Halo Business Advisors for their excitement about this project and the countless hours they've put into this project with me. I'm ecstatic about the launch of this website and will keep you updated about all that's going on. Lots of thanks also goes to Oscar Rodriguez, my Peruvian colleague and friend who is managing the business side of things in Peru. He's the one who organizes the ladies to get the new designs made, the cards produced quickly and at a high standard, and who gets the cards to me. The last order was about 2,000 cards, all handmade, and it was to my front door all the way from Peru in about 2 1/2 weeks from when I placed the order with him. That's not an easy accomplishment.

Stay tuned for more announcements in the coming weeks!
