A Week of Learning Adobe Illustrator

We  just returned from 10 days in Puerto Rico. This week, I'm teaching myself how to use Adobe Illustrator to make greeting cards. I love it! It's a very user friendly program. 
I found that when printing the cards, my painterly effects were lost. I edited them out and created new borders in the Illustrator program which printed nicely.

A Week of Greeting Cards

Last week, I applied watercolor techniques to my oils. This inspired me to work with watercolor again. I found a few greeting card companies that accept freelance submissions. I filled the cards in an interesting way with  lively negative spaces for text. I wonder if this will creep back into my oil paintings?
Next, I'll think of interesting, inspirational, happy text.
