New This Week

Hello friends!

I've got lots of new crafty goodness listed up in the Etsy Shop this weekend. I've been really jazzed about a lot of new products that I've gotten my hands on recently and so my creative mojo is in overdrive. [I'm already thinking about Halloween and Christmas!]

Here's a preview of what's been listed. Click on the name of the card to take you to the direct listing. More photos and additional information are available in the individual listings. 

Thanks ever so much:

Hello Handsome: 

Happy Birthday: 

xoxo: 

You're so special to me: 

Back to the studio I go...and remember, if there is something that you might be interested in, whether it be holiday cards [it's never too early to start thinking about them!] or something you saw on Pinterest, don't hesitate to contact me. I'd love to help!

Thanks for stopping by...and tell a friend! 

More Neon Goodness!

Ever since I received a little box in the mail that had the amazing Hero Arts Neon Inks in them, I haven't stopped smiling...or plotting what I can make next. 

I have to admit, this one is one of my favorites. New stamps that are bursting with awesomeness, literally...neon ink colors and clear, shiny gems. Oh yes please! [Add in a little washi tape and a fantastic greeting and we're talking incredible.]

Neon Hello:

This card [and 5 of his friends] are available in my Etsy Shop. I can't wait to keep creating with the Neon goodness...and the Hero Arts goodness...and the Washi...

Thanks for stopping by! 

Sending Happy Thoughts

The best way to send someone happy thoughts? 

By sending snail mail! This card is a fantastic option for that idea. 

Sending Happy Thoughts:

A variety of patterns including polka dots [in two sizes!], chevron and plaid make this one snazzy card! The colors remind me of the beach...warm tangerine, watermelon pink, seaweedy green, aqua and a bunch of black to make it stand out!

My favorite element is the little banner behind the popped-up circle. Just a little bit of detail that says, "hey, pay attention to me!" The sentiment featured says "sending lots of happy thoughts your way" in black ink. 

You can see more photos and details in the Etsy Shop, which is also where you can purchase this card! 

Lots more coming later today, including some mustaches, some circles and a whole lotta love. Come back and check it out. 

Thanks for stopping by!

hey there

Hey There...

Hey There:

I've got lots more coming to the shop, featuring a variety of new inks, papers, stamps & die cuts!

Thanks for stopping by!

3 New Items!

Just a quick update that there are 3 new items in the Etsy Shop!

It's my hope that I'll be able to add several new items each week, [I'd say each day, but currently I'd rather focus the majority of my time on creating new pieces!]

So, listed today are the following:

happy birthday: 

 hey buddy:

keep cool: 

For those who might not be aware, I've got a serious thing for lowercase letters...as in, I very rarely use capitals. I'm all for proper English, but when writing and stamping, I'm all about the lowercase. 

If there's something special or particular you'd like to see either here or in my shop, please don't hesitate to comment or contact me...I'm always up for suggestions and ideas!

Until next time...thanks for stopping by!

Happy 4th!

One thing I love about today's holiday is the inspiration that can be found in the colors and symbols that are typically associated with freedom. 

From amazing desserts...

...to pretty decorations...

...to fireworks of all kinds...

...to flags of all sizes...

...to the words that speak truths...

There is inspiration everywhere!

It's easy to get lost in all the deliciousness, decorations, fireworks and flags...but when it all gets boiled down, we're really pretty lucky. 

Take a moment today to look around and find some inspiration! Come back soon for some more creative goodness.
