Special Offers For July

Normally, there would be a feature from another Etsy seller here today, but I don't have that info yet. So, I am moving forward this special offer.

I am offering this to all my Facebook friends/fan and everyone that reads this blog.

The details:
Buy One Get One Free (up to a max of Buy Five Get Five Free) on all the cards and notelets in the Back To School section.

This offer ends at midnight on July 16th 2009.

Please put the code (BLOGBOGO) in message to seller and wait for a revised invoice, or receive a refund within three days. (Three days, because of the weekend and time difference).

If there is a card/set that isn't in this section that you absolutely love - please CONVO me and we can sort out some resonable offer. (Examples: Buy One Back To School item and get the non Back To School item for half price.... Buy Two non Back To School items and get One Back to School item for free....)

Mid Winter Vintage

This is my second Winter in New Zealand. All the shops seem to have this thing called "Mid-Winter Christmas Sale". I have started thinking about what to do for Christmas. I am planning on getting some gorgeous digital collaged images of Santa Claus and Angels etc.

I started my search on Etsy and found this amazing shop. Figuring that it might be worth while to try this 'technique' out before the Christmas making rush I decided to buy one collage sheet. As soon as I saw this postcard themed one - I just had to have it!

I've printed out a couple sheets of these images just to see what paper/printer setting is best and they all just look gorgeous!!

This one has to be my favorite so far. All 12 postcard images in the collage printed on marble effect 6x4 card. I just can't decide if there should be something in the bottom corner. A "thanks"??? It reminds me of this card from last year.



Planning on making a set like these.



This one is the Victorian Woman Greeting Card.

Tonight, I am hoping to get my tabbed journal altered scrapbook album finished. So hopefully, I will be able to take photographs tomorrow.

Let me know what you think of the Victorian woman card and the other images.

Latest Creations

There was finally some good light (not too harsh shadows) to take some photographs of the cards I made a couple days again.

These are just a few of the boys one.
Some aren't listed at my etsy shop - so they are sneak peaks.

The latest special offer at my store is "All postcards are HALF PRICE"

In other news, I went for a blood test earlier today and my arm is still sore. I still managed to get to the gym today but was too tired to finish the tabbed journal album. Hopefully I will be able to get this finished (with journaling) tomorrow.

Purse Handmade Card

Supplies Pt 2

I will be going to a craft show next month so I am trying to find uses for all the bits and pieces I have had for over a year. This has led to a new section in my store. Supplies is where all the wonderful papers etc that I have collected are trying to find new homes. I had great ideas when I bought all this stuff but obviously that never happened.

Shipping is only 75% of the actual shipping price.

Time for me to get to work.

Flowers For Boys

Boy Flower Embellishment

I just finished making these little flowers that would work on boy cards/scrapbook pages. The paper is boy themed and the little brads just add that manly touch.
