Logo

Alright so here it is...the logo that will hopefully be going on the back of the cards, please give me your opinion!

After a Long day's work...

Well, I didn't get much done yesterday and I didn't get much done today. Tomorrow is out of the question since I work 8:30am - 9:15pm and so is Friday since I am in Woodstock haha! But I did tally my cards today and I have around 50 cards (not too shabby), and then I have 6 sets of 4.

I managed to cram 5 cards in today, which was pushing it because each one took a lot of time compared to the other simpler ones that I was making.

Anyways here they are :) (I saved the best one for last)

No Such Luck!

Oh man, I must have jinxed myself last night saying I hoped I wasn't going to get called in, cause as soon as I finished my first card, the phone rang and I said guaranteed that is going to be work calling me in, and of course being the wonderfully awesome person that I am I said yes...and was miserable the rest of the day. I don't know why I said yes, but I guess it is giving me money to pay for all the supplies and such that I need.

Anyways, I did get a couple of cards done today and I will hopefully get a lot done tomorrow, since I am finished work by 1:30. :)

Here are the ones from today :)

New cards!

Alright, so I apologize for taking so long in getting new cards made and posted, but I worked everyday, and I was able to get out this past weekend to celebrate my birthday with my amazing friends and get to dance my heart away!

I will be making cards all day tomorrow since I have the day off, unless I get called in, but I am crossing my fingers I don't get called in!

So without further delay here they are:

Questions!

Hey there!

I've been getting a lot of questions recently about my cards, and they seem to be a lot of the same questions, and they are really good questions! So I figured I would answer them here.

1. What are they made of?
               
           Awesome question! The typical items that I use are:
                             Card Stock
                             Rubber Stamps
                             Stickers
                             Rub-on Stickers
                             Ribbon
                             Chalks
                             Inks
                             Cut-Outs
            Now I don't use these on every card, but you will see these in the different 
            cards I make.

2. Do you make the designs yourself?
                 
           I make almost all the designs myself. I do use some templates from online,
           but I usually change them around to add my own flare to them. For 
           example I did the Fireplace cards from scratch, I drew them out by hand 
           and it was all done by me, where as the 3 hats (blue card) as a template 
           from online, but I changed the hats around and coloured them in. 

3. How long does it take to make one card?

           Well, it usually takes me about 30-40 minutes to make one of the larger
           cards because I need to make sure that they are precise and that they 
           are looking there best. It can sometimes take a while to come up with 
           a fresh idea for a design on the cards as well because I don't want to
           do too many of the same cards. For the smaller sets of 4 they usually
           take about 30minutes as a whole because they are simple cards that all 
           have the same design, so I am able to cut out everything I need at once 
           for all 4 then just stick them on to the cards. 

4. Do I have a Logo on the back?

            I will now! Ha ha! It took me forever to come up with a Logo that I
            actually liked. It took about 2 weeks to come up with it, but I am 
            happy to say that last night in my boredom at work I drew out 
            something that I like. I will post it to get feedback before I put it on 
            the cards. It's something simple, quick and I think pretty cute!   


5. What are you charging for them?
             
            I am charging $2.50 for the larger cards (single). Then $4.00 for a 
            set of 4 as they are smaller in size. 




If you have anymore questions for me please feel free to comment :)

Flower - Set of 4

I also made these today. They aren't as heavy of a paper, but they are still very cute and very usuable. For the middle of the flower I used old buttons we had lying around the house.

I've been busy!

So I worked a short shift this morning and I was home by shortly after 2 and I've been making card since. With a few breaks here and there for a snack, dinner and of course washroom breaks haha.

Here they are. I racked my brain to come up with some new ideas for them. So I hope you like them. Please leave a comment and let me know what you think, whether you think something should be different or whether you just plain love them! haha

The Fire Place ones are blank on the inside.
