Hey everyone! Just wanted to share this awesome opportunity - I have no stakes in this whatsoever - just passing the info along from their email. They do great work, now have double thick card stock and its just as easy as ordering from any other online printer but you have more stock choices and they are 100% green, including their power usage. Here is their email:
Happy Earth Day from GreenerPrinter
If you've never ordered eco-friendly printing from us before, this is a perfect, no-risk opportunity to find out why you should: For one day only, we're offering 200 Free Business Cards on our new "double-thick" eco paper (see below). This offer will be valid only on April 22nd. Just visit our homepage on April 22nd, and you'll see a link to the Free Business Card page.

I need help for THIS FRIDAY, April 11th, in the afternoon!
I am decorating a trellis with greenery and need 2 bodies to help me wire greens together to make garlands and to help me wire them onto the trellis. This will involve some short ladder work but no higher than a few feet.
We'll start Friday afternoon around 2pm and go until we are done - hopefully about only 5 hours.
IN TRADE - I have TWO passes for FREE admission to this weekend's Green Festival for you and yours!! They are good for Sat or Sun.
You can call me at 206-818-9102 or email me at ecokinddesign at gmail . com.
THANK YOU!!!

Hey Guys!
So you've set your intention of attracting your mate. A lot of thought and energy goes into that. You know - you make the list, you post profiles on match sites and you might even be paying for that matchmaking service (if you haven't, try Sophisticated Matchmaking - Sophia is a Bizniker!).
Have you thought about what your home looks like? When your date walks in, are they going to be impressed, turn their nose up or run screaming?
Being a single gal ready for love myself, I can tell you, a well-decorated space is a BIG point scorer. It's like icing on the cake, or the perfect bow that compliments the wrapping paper. YOU are the cake, YOU are the package, so take time to make sure you've got the perfect icing (or bow) with your interior home space!
Continue moving the energy of your intention to attract your mate by having a home that is welcoming and aesthetically pleasing for your partner! You don't know how to do that? Well, I DO!!
Not only will I make your space feel more welcoming and prepared for your mate, it will feel more like home to YOU andI do this in an eco-friendly manner, all while not sacrificing color or your personal style! Whether you need a re-design of with your current stuff or are starting from scratch, I work my magic to make it happen.
So bachelors, get your interior intentions in order! If you book with me prior to the end of June, I'll give you 20% off your project total! (Project does not have to commence in June, just be booked with a deposit by the end of June).
You can find me at 206-818-9102 and by email at EcoKindDesign at gmail dot com. Your initial consult is complimentary!
Here's to your success in attracting your mate!!
Hi Everyone!
I'm pooling my eco resources and want to make sure I haven't missed anyone here on Biznik, or anyone here that knows of people outside of Biznik that might be good contacts. And, that others haven't missed you as well!
Most importantly right now, I am looking for products that can contribute to the event ambiance at the Conscious Choice Green Festival After party I am decorating for! This means foliage, fabrics, recycled products, including art, jewelry, etc., products one uses like spa stuff...and so on. Basically, if its green, sustainable, recycled, eco friendly, I want to know about it!
Several Biznikers are already involved: BiziBee Floral, Country Meadow, In Harmony, Urban Weeds.
So, in case I've missed you, please connect! Additionally, if you respond here, then perhaps someone else won't miss connecting with you too!
If you volunteer just 4 hours at the Conscious Choice booth at the Green Festival April 12 or 13th, you can get a free ticket for the green festival! It's basically flashing your pearly whites, handing out magazines to those who approach the booth and answering any questions they might have. Sandy Fox is the contact and she is FABULOUS! I can't imagine it's going to be anything but total fun to hang out with that gang for 4 hours.
If you are interested, contact Sandy at: 320-7788x10 sandy@consciouschoice.com
Tell her I sent you cuz she wants to know!
Also note that this is the same weekend as Seeds of Compassion event that the Dali Lama will be at, just so you don't schedule yourself conflictingly. That would be major bummerage, eh?
I'm volunteering first thing Sunday am.
Cheers, Amy
The clings of our client are curling up at the bottom. They have been uninstalled and reinstalled with a squeegee, to no avail. Our printer says she's never seen this happen.
The clings are in a restaurant and we are wondering if they are not sticking due to the humidity of the environment?
If so, then unfortunately, we'll have to go with stickers, which is less optimal b/c obviously, the client can't take them with him when/if he leaves the space at some point. We think why not conserve resources and also be most cost effective by doing clings but perhaps that is not possible with this situation.
Any advice/experience from the pack?
This could be a great opportunity for any of us to network our mad skills, be you man or woman or gender neutral. I found the ad in the Seattle Woman mag but it's def not for women only, as there are men presenters, etc.
NW Women's Show 500+ Exhibits cooking classes. wine tasting. fashion. 6 entertainment stages
THere will also be a living and eating green portion :)
March 28-30 Qwest Field Event Center only $14!! 10-6pm
Greetings-
A longtime friend of mine, Kimberly, is looking for work in her field of Human Resources. She is a certified HR Generalist with a LOT of experience. Kim is stellar in character and very good at what she does.
If you know of anyone looking or have any resources for her, please contact kimberlytprice at comcast.net.
Thank you!
This year, I made a decision to get my feet in more with the events. 1- I have the time now and 2- It's great fun to learn new stuff, meet new people, etc. and 3- I am making some great new connections!
I have an average of about 2-3 events per week scheduled right now! WOW! Are we going THAT strong here?! Go us!
What about you? How is your event attendance and your feedback on attending more/less events? Can you squeeze one in each week EVEN IF you are busy?
Hi-
I was told I have to file a 1099 for a designer who i contracted to work with me on a project however, I can't find a 1099 form that fits any kind of definition that is correct for her services.
She is not an employee. She is her own entity.
If not 1099, what form is correct that I file with IRS of the money I paid out to her and for her records too?
I heard this is due today? This being my first year doing taxes involving anyone but myself, my learning curve is slow on the uptake.
Thanks in advance for your wisdom! Amy
Hey B-nikers!
Inspired by Justin's post about Valentine's Day, I am offering 20% off interior decorating if you book with me by the end of February 2008. (Project need not start by the end of February, just be booked in my calendar).
Practice self-love by loving the space that supports you in your home or business. A well-reflected and designed interior not only looks and feels better, it functions better. All these are key elements to supporting you best in your home or business space. AND, it feels better and is more memorable to your guests and clients. A great impression goes a long way.
Whether you need a revise of your current space or are working from a blank slate, I am the gal to do the job AND I make it happen in as eco-friendly a way as possible, which also contributes to a healthier environment and is another form of self-love. I can work with your existing stuff and/or choose new things for you to bring it all together.
Love yourself more through your interiors today! Call or email me for a complimentary consultation.
Interior Blessings, Amy

Let's meet up for coffee or happy hour! I'll be in town both days. Eventually, there will be more warning on plans and I aim to get to event posting at some point too.
I've heard Portland Bar & Grill is a good place for happy hour. Any feedback on that?
Once we get ourselves up and going, I'd love to see a regular monthly happy hour hosted by myself and others of course. I can't always get down there every month!
And of course, we can get some workshops going too! Think about what you'd like to offer - check out what Seattle stuff is happening for ideas - and let's get you Pdx'ers up and rolling!!
Monday or Tuesday? coffee or happy hour?
