Something old, Something new...

I love the little wedding rhyme: something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue. I made a cute card for my sister-in-law for her upcoming wedding day. I used lots of bling...pearl and rhinestone embellishments and glitter card stock hearts...perfect for the bride to be.


 

Speaking of something old...I took some new pictures of items already in my Etsy shop. When I first started on Etsy I didn't have a nice camera, so my pictures lacked a sense of freshness and clarity. I'm happy with the way they turned out. If you haven't visited my shop recently, be sure to check it out.

In the spirit of something new, I have an exciting update. There is a new art center opening near me and the owner put out a request to local artist to feature items in her shop. I met with the owner last week and we had a nice visit. Best of all, she wants to put my cards in her shop! I'm planning to organize and package some of my cards in the coming weeks and take them to her. Her art center will also be a place for lessons and birthday parties for kiddos, so I am hoping to have some of my banners displayed as well. I made a new banner as a sample to show her. It's so fun and whimsical, I love it! I used yellow, pink, purple, and blue card stock and added bright embellishments. I used hot pink rick rack to tie the letters together. I downloaded the font from a freebie I found on a blog through Pinterest.
