An Orgy Of Thought - Week 9

Week 9 - New Business Cards, Session Breakdown

Week 9 was the first of our rehearsals at 41 Monkgate, and we also had some lovely new business cards to distribute to the group to get out into the world and help publish the group!

1. The New Business Cards

Mike and Emilie had a sit down this week and tackled the business cards - we thought it only makes sense; if we have a blog, a theatre group and are developing our ideas, then why don't we have business cards.

Straight from the printers, we can officially upload a screen shot of our preliminary pre-print designs from Goodprint - who we like.
We would also like to credit Elisabeth Perotin who designed the artwork for the blog, which we snazzed up for the background design, and to Free Blogger Skins who provided the template.
