Newspaper Advertising…

Posted by juliesjewels on April 24, 2009

I’m getting a little more serious and have taken out a set of advertising in a local newspaper…

What do you think of the ad?

The paper’s Graphic Artist made up the ad, and used an image she found on the blog here - I think she’s done a lovely job…
