New Stickers in the Shop

I've been busy making stickers and having a *DANG* good time doing it.

Here are a few examples of what is already in the shop:

My First Feature in an Etsy Treasury, Yahoo!

Rebekah of SunnyBrookFarmDesign (cute, huh?) created the latest Treasury for the Etsy Texas Crafters and I'm in it. This is EXCITING!

The 2009 Calendar is Complete (mostly)

I have long wanted to design a calendar, and this one has been a labor of love. Here is an image of the 12 months. The first design had the dates all wrong (from 2008) and had to be completely re-done. UGH! So now I've triple-checked and am satisfied in its accuracy.

The calendar will be available in the shop early next week in 2 formats:

1) Downloadable CD jewel-case size (the jewel case doubles as a stand for the pages). For this one you'll have to acquire an empty CD jewel-case, print out on 12 pages of card stock, and cut out yourself. I may make a few of these "hard copies" for the shop as well.

2) A larger, spiral bound wall version, a bit larger than the CD jewel case version, printed on heavy matte cardstock.

If you have any suggestions, speak now before I go off to the printer on Monday!!!

Printable New Year Card and Envelope in the Shop

Here it is: the first of many-to-come download & print stationery bits. The first one is a Happy New Year Card and it is a "color your own." I'm often asked for blackline versions of other printables. I colored a few myself and tried a blingy version with glitter and stickles. Only $2.00 for the download, come and get it!

New Year's Resolutions

Happy New Year! I'm still thinking out my resolutions, but I've been planning business goals for 2009 for months. Essentially: more, more, more! New items coming into the shop include more vintage game and flash card journals, vintage image reproduction stationery, and little buttons and purse mirrors with original artwork.

I also want to start including aprons in my fabric goodies shop and learn how to incorporate quilling into my stationery line.

Please share your crafty resolutions!!

For those of you who like to journal, here is a little goodie you can print out and glue into your journal for your resolution doodling.
