Back in business.

I know, I have disappeared for a while but I am back...hopefully for good! But let's not get carried away...

I was busy this week making five cards. A customer requested for three birthday cards for her three granddaughters. She is a repeat customer. She placed the same order last year and it was really flattering that she asked again.

The other customer requested for a wedding card and a baptismal card. I only had to create one card because she chose one of the wedding cards I already made. Score. However, she asked if I could add a personal message which was no problem at all.  

Though it was a bit of a rush to make them this week, I forgot how much I enjoy making cards - especially customized cards. Hopefully I won't disappear again...if I have too much orders on the go, well then, that's a very good excuse :)

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Yesterday, my co-worker requested to see my Valentine cards. I panicked a little because I had only made four designs and wanted to give her a bigger selection. So last night, I spent a few hours making a few and convinced my husband to take photos of the cards in between watching his favourite shows.

I can't remember how many I made in total but it was enough for her to choose from.

I brought them today and she found one she liked! And guess what? Same as seven other people!!

Yay!

~The customer wanted a birthday card for one of her close friends. She wanted a feminine card and specifically asked for tulips. You can't really tell by the photo, but this is an extra large card. And the green is a bit more softer. A very sweet card for a sweet lady. The customer was very pleased.

~The customer wanted a birthday card for her brother who is very 'outdoors-y'. He loves to go hiking, camping, fishing, and hunting, etc. When I found these stickers, I thought they were perfect! And great find on the moose! It was a nice touch especially since she mentioned it was a running joke between them. This card took me awhile to put together because I was worried about it looking like a postcard as opposed to a birthday card. But when I gave it to her, her instant reaction told me I was being too hard on myself. She loved it!!
