Custom Made Cards

Lately Ive had some requests for custom made cards that are inspired by some of the little ladies I love to draw and paint. I thought I would put it out there that if anyone would like one made please email me. They are A5 in size with colour co-ordinating envelope in a cello bag.

All I need to know is hair style and colour, eye colour and any theme or colour way you might have in mind (oh and a message if you want one). For example- Sarah is going to be 10 on her birthday, she has blonde curly hair and blue eyes, she likes pink and shoes and dresses. I will make the card incorporating all the info you have given me and then email you to check its what you had in mind. I charge £4 for the cards and £1 postage.

Big Blog Card Swap

A couple of weeks ago I signed up to take part in the Big Blog Card Swap. The idea behind the swap is that a group of people take part by making a card each and sending it to another member of the swap. This swap was organised by Sarah at Wrapped up with string and Naomi at Leaves in the spring. All I had to do was email through my name and address and Naomi and Sarah sorted out the cycle of who was sending where. I only posted my card yesterday but I wanted to show you the one I received in the post.


This card is gorgeous and made up of lots of little folds of patterned paper with a ribbon and pearl detail. I received it from Hannelore at Astrid's Garden, you can have a look in her folksy shop- Astrid's Garden or blog- Paper, Beads & Inspiration. I also wanted to show you a little picture of Astrid's Garden business card and sticker label as I think they are some of the prettiest I have seen!

First Folksy Friday- Easter Chicks

I have created my very first Folksy Friday- big thanks to Haptree who made a lovely clear treasury template. I thought I would go with the 'chick' theme it being good friday after all. I hope you like it.
