What Is A Mock Up, Exactly?

Once or twice I've posted about having "Mock Ups" available on my Facebook group page and I'll be mentioning them here, too. That may have you wondering, "what is a Mock Up?" Let me tell you a little bit about Mock Up's & what they mean to you!

1) A Mock Up is pretty much what it sounds like it is. It's a "rough draft" so to speak. Basically, I've choose an article of clothing & a design that I think people will like. I haven't made it, yet, because I want to see how Y'ALL will like it. When you see that I've posted a Mock Up, I'd love for you to comment on it by answering questions like:
     a) Do you like the design?
     b) Do you like this particular article of clothing?
     c) Does the price seem fair?

2) A Mock Up will be accompanied by special pricing! Typically, it will be discounted $3-$7. Why? Because I don't want to make one or more of this design unless I know it's going to sell.

3) If you choose to order a Mock Up, I will take pictures of it to use in posts as advertising before I send it out to you.

4) If you choose to order a Mock Up, it may not come to you EXACTLY as it appears in the picture. The article of clothing will be the same, but the design size, color(s), and/or placement may be different than pictured.

Here's an example of a Mock Up I did but never published. Unfortunately, 2016 just got away from me before I could do anything about it! Lol.

Hopefully, that clears up any questions you may have had about the term. Again, when I post a Mock Up, I would love your feedback. And, I would definitely like for you to purchase one so I can make more for others!

Welcome To Artful Angel

Welcome to my blog for Artful Angel!!

My goal is going to be to share a post with you each week. It might be a new item, it might be to share information with you, maybe just a post to show what I'm working on! Who knows!

If you don't know me, let me introduce myself. My name is Charis Young. I am a work-at-home mom & wife. I also own two businesses. Artful Angel (one of the two) is my "passion" business, so to speak. I love all things crafty & Artful Angel allows me to let my creative juices flow! I love to create things that make people smile.

I love to scrapbook & make cards. I like to make gift items, baby items, decorations for special events, & home decor. Recently, I have rediscovered my love for coloring! I like to make so many different things that I often have a hard time focusing on one project at a time! Lol! And, one of my main goals for 2017 is try to get focused on Artful Angel a bit more!

I would love to have you join my Facebook group, follow me on Instagram (Artful.Angel), & follow me on Pinterest! You can also feel free to email me at artfulangel16@gmail.com. I love to do custom work! If you have an idea & don't know how to proceed, please feel free to ask! Need a gift for someone special but don't know what to get them, ask me how I can help!

I can't wait to get to know each of you better! Looking forward to an awesome 2017!!
