Custom order of military theme cards just finished

I've just finished making a custom order of 30 cards with a military/veteran theme and will be getting them in the mail to the customer today. I got a little carried away and ended up making 40 cards so I'll have afew of them to keep on my Etsy store too.

I made a selection of sizes and styles including Navy, Air Force, Army, Marines, Veterans, Motor Bikes and USA theme cards and love them all.

They are going to be sold at the Rolling Thunder event on Memorial Day in May to raise money for the war veterans, which is a great cause.

And the winner of my March giveaway is..........

Throughout March I ran a giveaway to win 10 of my handmade cards for people who either liked my facebook fan page or made a purchase on my Etsy store.  By the end of March I had reached over 100 fans on my page and made several sales on Etsy too.  So on April 1st, I did a drawing to see who the lucky winner would be and it is Laura! Congrats!

Here is a photo of the 10 cards that will be making their way to Laura and I hope she loves them and sends them all out to her friends and family.

Now its time to get started on the 85 wedding invitation sets I have on order so that will keep me busy for a while.

Last day of the March Madness Card challenge - an assortment of cards

Well here I am on day 31 at the end of my card a day challenge for March.  It's been a fun month and I've got lots of lovely cards to show for it too, although it has been hard work to get them made, photographed, uploaded and blogged about, and being sick for a couple of days didn't really help, but I made it through!

Looking back at all the cards I did make, I've counted up them all and actually made 54 different cards, and including multiples of the same design, there were over 100 cards, so quite a productive month.  I'll certainly have plenty to take to the Washington International Spring Bazaar on April 17th.

For my last day I've made five new cards.  It started off with a first birthday card, then I added an 18th and 21st birthday cards followed by a sweet sixteen, and finally two quick thank you cards to try out a new rubber stamp!

I hope you've enjoyed following my creativity and I'll start thinking about another challenge for later in the year.

Card Challenge Day 24 - More mothers day Cards

Yesterday I didn't have my camera so wasn't able to take any photos of all the new mothers day cards I made.  I was on a roll and made 24 cards in all im=ncluding some fathers day cards and some happy birthday soldier cards too.  Some days i have so many ideas that I can just keep going....last night it was nearly midnight when I packed my things up and went to bed.

I'm hoping to make some more as the two stores that buy wholesale from me will be needing some and I also know alot of brits living here that need mothers day cards for the UK date in April, and can' always find them in the shops in time.

Lets hope today is as productive!
