Looking for the perfect Valentine? Card, that is!?!

So I have been hard at work on my greeting cards but haven't been posting pictures, so I decided I needed to update.  I had several Christmas Card orders and wouldn't you know it that I didn't take a single picture of any of them!  I might try to replicate some of them to include in my samples.

Here are my Valentines..I think I will try to get a few without the cellophane wrappers but it should be noted each card comes individually wrapped.  Click on the images for a larger view...



I really like these ones...the paper hearts that I made are to resemble the traditional "box of chocolates" that we have all received at one time or another!



Then I did more of the others as well (i.e. thank you, birthday etc) pictured below - all of these will be on sale at Colonial Optical in Kirkland http://www.colonialoptical.com/index.html next week!





If you are interested in any of them, or would like to place a custom order for save the dates, invitations for showers/weddings or other parties/special occasions, just email or Facebook me.  I am reasonable and have a very quick turn around time!  I will work with you to create a set of cards are truly one of a kind!  Email:  meg_lockhart@hotmail.com.

Cards for all occasions!

I made 32 cards last week to serve as thank you cards for a friends baby shower - I will update the blog with those soon.  In the meantime, here are some newbies!

Thank you notes that are buzzworthy!



Thank you



Birthday

Love






Any



I have had several orders placed and sent over the past month which is helping my hobby pay for itself!  I am currently running a special that if you order over $20.00, the shipping is free.  I also do custom orders which usually entails me making several "mock-ups" for you to review and help me to finalize.  The process can be as hands on or off as you wish!

On a roll!

Okay, here are some that I have been working on to try and build a good base of signature cards.  Here are the new birthday cards I just started doing - I like them because you can use them for adults or for children.  They are good for any age....





I also have a few that would be ideal invitations.  I thought I would either put on a tiny "little" note under the flower "You're Invited" or the person's initials.  Anyway, you can see what I mean below:



These would be good for baby shower invitations/announcements or baby congratulatory cards:




I liked the tropical feel of these:



Here are my Graduation ones that I sent this year - I put the year in the bottom right front corner of each of them:


Anyway, I have more that I am working on and will post as I finish them.  I ordered a new, bigger stamp for the back with my contact information so I won't have to include a separate card with each of them.  I also have cellophane wrappers that I will wrap each one in.  Overall, I am very pleased with how they have turned out!

Finished set of 50 invitations!

Lately I have been working on my greeting cards at a rapid pace.  I was engaged to do 50 invitations for a Phongraph party in the middle of July, so I finished them yesterday.  Here are a few pictures of what they look like - I used several different backgrounds and a picture that the client had emailed to me.  Overall, I think they turned out fabulous!

Ahh, the complexity of what to write first.

I designed this blog to make it easier for people to locate me should they receive one of my cards as a gift.  If you like what you see, email me and I can make some for you too!  It's that simple!
