Hand Written Notes...

Did you know...
Get Out Your Pen and Paper
The art of the handwritten, personal note is something of an antique today, and that is why it gets noticed.The Post Office tells us that only 4 percent of our mail is personal. Take the time to write a note to say hello, thank you for the business, thank you for the recommendation, and (even if you are rejected) thank you for your time and consideration.I write 3 notes daily -- that is 15 at the end of the week and over 750 touches at the end of the year. What gets noticed gets remembered.And these notes are short, sweet and to the point -- not War and Peace.Source: Networking authority Andrea Nierenberg (www.selfmarketing.com, 2008)

Get out those pens and paper people and write notes.

God is Awesome

dd and I have been creating cards left and right. We finally figured it all out and we are moving like lightning! Thanks God for all He does for us. He is awesome.
We have added some large stationery and also the personalized cards...mostly the Holiday cards so you can make any of them your own. We still have many in the design stage, so keep checking back often.
We will be listed in the Christian Business Directory soon, be watching. We are very excited to be apart of that!
Our pay-per-click advertising will start next month. That will drive more traffic to the site! dd and I are looking forward to that.
We are gearing up for our outside sales! We look forward getting out and meeting you all! Be watching for us.
Go to the website and leave us comments and suggestions, we would love to hear from you!
I wanted to let everyone know God is AWESOME!

Cards Cards Cards~

DD and I are card making fools! It seems that all we are doing lately. It is the funnest thing! We get to a point that we have to walk away because our fingers are too tired to type anymore...so, I am typing a blog now, go figure. Don't tell anyone, but I am using my feet! Just kidding.
Anyway, our site is filling up with some wonderful cards. We figured out how to use personalized section, so you are able to personalize the cards and note cards...well, we only have one there now, but keep checking back, our fingers are tired-give us girls a break! :-) I know it is nice to personalize cards, so we will begin work real soon on those.
We still have many cards in the design stage. Keep looking, we add almost daily.
Thanks for all the support!

I know I have promised more cards to come soon...and they will be there I promise. The designers are working hard. Keep checking back to see new creations.

Getting there

Good morning everyone! Jason was able to link our blogs to the site-thank you Jason! Be sure to leave us comments, we want to hear from you.
Donna doesn't like to blog, be sure to leave her a comment or two and encourage her to do it!
We still have a ton of cards in the design stage. It doesn't move fast enough for me! Again, not patient I guess.
I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Still not there~

Good morning everyone. www.ddkays.com is still not there! We are live and have a few cards online, but there are still glitches to over come. Be patient with us. We are new to this and we are working hard to correct everything and to make it an easy site to shop for all your greeting card needs.
I want to thank Jason for all the work he has done on the site to make it how I saw it in my head. He has done much work-thank you Jason!
Be patient also while we are in the design stage of many new cards. The designers can't keep up with what Donna and I are giving them. Keep looking daily to see our newest.
Leave us comments and suggestions please! We want to hear from you!
Have a great weekend, talk soon!

Holiday Weekends

I look forward to Holiday weekends! I am not planning on going anywhere, but just to stay home and catch up here.

There is still so much work to do for dd kay's! I think it will be never ending. However, it is work I enjoy. I enjoy ever minute. I may get tired and sometimes frustrated, but at the end of the day...it is joyful for me.

Be patient with our site www.ddkays.com we are still working out our kinks--that happen with any new site. No matter the planning you may do, there will still be start-up problems.

I know many people have visited our site-we thank you all. Please don't forget our designers are working hard to get more cards up. Visit daily to see them.

I just wanted to tell everyone to have a great 4th of July weekend. Leave me comments, I would love to hear from you all!

Learning

God is teaching me some tough lessons lately. How to wait patiently. How the tongue can damage people. How my attitude and thoughts can be sinful. All tough. I have learned a lot in the studies that I am doing. I pray I can turn from the wrongs I learned and it change my life forever. God is good.

ddkay's is up and going. We have so many cards and things in the works I can hardly wait to get them online for you to view. We have several designers working hard. Be patient!

Pray for us as we start this new adventure. Send us comments and prayer requests, we would love to hear from you.

Have a blessed day!

Well, it is a waiting game. I need to learn patience! That I know. It just took so long to get this site up, I want everyone to look! :-) Oh well, God is teaching me patience I know.

Finally here!

ddkays.com is finally here and we are live! It has been months of planning and prep work, but we made it. Donna and I are finally relieved. Last night we gave the biggest exhale of relief.

We also realized it is only the beginning! There is so much work ahead. I have to admit, for a split second, I groaned. I quickly realized it, and gave thanks. God gave us this opportunity and I don't want to blow it, nor do I want to miss a second of His plan for us. Plus, creating the cards and other items on our site is the most exciting work for me!

Our site seems so empty right now. I know it will take time to fill it up. Be patient with us. Check back often. We will be adding cards almost daily. We have so many planned, so many on paper, and so many in the design stages...but we had to go live!

Thank you for your patience. Thank you for your visit. Thank you for your order. We give God all the praise and Glory!

God bless you all, He has us!
