More new cards .....

Some more new cards I've just added to my Folksy shop.

New cards

I've been busy making cards for my Folksy shop over the last few days and I will be adding them gradually over the next week or so.

Here's a sneak peek at two of them

 Vintage Hello

The paper used for this is from October Afternoon's Schoolhouse collection - really gorgeous as usual from them, has a lovely vintagey/retro feel.

Fluttering Butterflies

I designed this card last year and it has sold well in the past at craft fairs and on Folksy, so I made some more. This time using Olivia by Basic Grey, a collection that I have been drooling over for a while.

I will be adding loads more and will also be having a blog giveaway very soon so watch this space.....................

Good news

I contacted the owner of this lovely shop last week to see if they might be interested in stocking some of my cards.
To cut a long story short - I popped in to see them this morning and came out with an order for 72 cards!
I'm very pleased as you can imagine and extremely chuffed that a shop with such a fab reputation for cards wants to stock mine.
It is a great shop with a real eclectic mix of gorgeous things - including lovely journals and stationary items, pens (they are very well known for their knowledge of pens and customer service), wooden toys, board games, kites, juggling equipment and of course cards, I would definitely recommend a browse if you are in the area.

New cards

I've just uploaded two new designs to my Folksy shop.

This is my 'Fluttering butterfly' design - these were very popular at the craft fair i attended recently so I made some more (they are fun to make!) and have added them to my shop.

Will be back later to share the second design.

Polka-dot birthday card

My husband very kindly bought me a printer a few weeks ago and I finally unpacked it and set it up at the weekend.

I had a little play around today - printing sentiments onto patterned paper and I came up with this birthday card. I really like the way it came out. I'm not a big fan of stamping so tend to shy away from sentiments, but this could definitely be a feasible way of doing it.



Paper: October Afternoon (The Thrift Shop)

Just uploaded three of these to my Folksy shop although the photos have been cropped strangely and half the card is missing. Has anyone else had any problems uploading pictures to Folksy recently?
