DON'T YOU JUST HATE LEARNING CURVES??

SUNSHINE MAKES AN OOPSIE!!

As we reported yesterday, we made our first sale from our
online store!! We were soooo excited! What we didn't understand {and I should point out that, when I say 'we', I mean ME} was that on the Etsy Store we had failed to list an amount more than one for each item we listed...so when we had our terrific first sales...that meant those two items were OUT OF STOCK!! HORROR!! So we {{OK me}} toddled off and had a wonderful day basking in the wonder and beauty of knowing people liked our images enough to pay for them....only to come home last evening to a frantic phone call from my sister-in-law(Chrissy) saying that one of our Sunshine's Stampers had been contacted by an interested shopper who was trying to purchase from our store! She was being told that the item was OUT OF STOCK!!! Holy Catfish Batman!! Into Etsy we fly!! Where is that inventory number?? Dang it!! Where is that pesky little bit of important info??!! Oh! there it is!! We immediately changed the inventory number to 50 for all 12 items!! Phew! Problem solved!!! WRONG!!! 12 X 50 = 600X .20=$120.00 just for listing the items!!! YIKES!!! Into Etsy again!!! Changed the inventory to 10 for each item!! Holy smokers Robin!! Our "Overhead" needs to be managed!!! All is right with the world now...well kinda...we didn't make the sale because of our {{{OK! OK! MY}}} phoopa!! ***Sigh*** Bear with us folks...we are learning {OK I am learning} as we go along!! If you happen to be the shopper who tried and failed to purchase from our online store, we apologize for your frustration! We thank you for your interest!! If you want to send us an e-mail or leave us a comment we will send you one of our current new images at no cost to you, as an apology for my oopsie and a thank you for your interest in our images. Thanks for stopping by!!

For a little more information on our store you can go to our newly formed SUNSHINE'S STAMPS blog! Yup!! A new blog!! This is where I have been biting my fingernails down to the quick for the last couple of weeks! YEARS AGO I was adept {you will note, I don't even go so far as to say proficient} in writing code. It seems I have forgotten more than I ever thought possible!!

SUNSHINE'S STAMPS will be featuring a Grand Opening Party at a yet to be determined date in the near future. Our Sunshine's Stampers will be posting new images each week on their galleries, blogs and challenges. You can always hop to their blogs by using the Design Team Blog List on my side bar or over on the new site as well. Sunshine's Stampers will be posting creative uses for digital images. Innovative uses for the images and there will even be tutorials on the use of digital images along with the use of popular card making accessories.

Over on SUNSHINE'S STAMPS you can click on the SHOP page and see the images that are currently available at our Etsy Store. Simply click on the thumbnail and it will bounce you right over to the Etsy Store and give you a great description of the image.

We want to thank you in advance for your wonderful support of Sunshine's Stamps. Strap yourself in....we are going to have a rockin' good time!! Thanks for stopping by all!!
