Last chance // dernière chance // letzte Chance

Sunday marks the end of the 2011 Calendar Promo, so... if you've been wanting to take advantage of the deal of the century and get yourself (and maybe your best-friend) a 2011 "Counting in the Kitchen" Calendar, then I urge you to act now! Operators are standing by to take your call. (No, they're not.) But, my 2011 Friends & Family Mailing List is ready and waiting to welcome you into the club and give you a whopping $10 off your 2011 Calendar. I know, that's incredible!

Have a wonderful weekend,

xo bess

ps. It's funny how the work "chance" is the same in English, French and German. Interesting...

New Website, New Logo, Same Me

My new website: besscallard.com

It's been a long time coming, at least it's felt that way to me. I've been designing and re-designing and then designing some more, trying to get a new site together that could serve as a way to bring my freelance work and English Muffin work together in one place. I'm happy with how my website has turned out. There are a lot of things that still need to be done (like the portfolio page), but at least the structure is there and I can keep working on it as I move forward with other projects.

I'd love for you to go and check it out. I've designed a new little logo for myself, a stylized lowercase letter b. I wanted something simple and clean, and of course the little dog in the top right-hand corner is Tyke. He's been such a loyal office mate, the least I can do is let him wag his tail a little on my website ;)

Over the next few weeks I hope to do a mini re-design of the blog too. Something to bring it more inline with my new branding. I'm actually thinking of getting rid of the name English Muffin and just going with Bess Callard. I've mentioned this idea on the blog before, I think it's time.

If you haven't already signed-up to my mailing list - do it! I've got a great promotion on right now until October 17th for my new 2011 Calendar.

Have a great Wednesday!

UPDATE:

Ok, I've had a change of heart about leaving the name English Muffin in the dust. It's funny I had really given this a lot of thought, but it wasn't until I put it online and actually started to change over my shop and other branding that I realized this wasn't the best idea. So English Muffin stays!! Sorry about the confusion.

Ok, back to work.

2011 Calendar: Pre-Order Promotion just for YOU!

Hello Dear Blog Readers!

I'm so excited to start rolling out the 2011 Calendar. I've been working on it for the better part of a month and am extremely happy with how it has turned out. It's larger than last year's calendar, measuring 6" x 11" and printed right here in Canada on FSC certified, satin-finished high quality card stock.

"Inspired by Saturday mornings at the market, the 2011 "Counting in the Kitchen" calendar features an original 5" x 5" food illustration for each month of the year. From a single squash to a dozen eggs, you'll enjoy counting the months and asparagus as they go by.

Makes a great kitchen calendar, or the perfect gift for the Jr. foodie in your life."

I hope you're as excited about the 2011 Calendar as I am. I'd like to invite you to sign-up to my Friends & Family mailing list to receive a very special Pre-Order Promotion. The offer is only good until Sunday October 17th, 2010. Once you sign-up you can expect an email from me within the next couple days outlining the promotion details.

I'm really excited to be able to extend this offer to all of my readers and online friends. Please think of it as my way of saying thank you for all your encouragement, comments and support over the past couple years.

I hope to hear from you soon, and may I be the first to wish you an amazing 2011!
