folded valentines

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

It’s time to start thinking about Valentine’s Day! I think it’s my favorite holiday besides Halloween. I loved it looooong before I ever had a boyfriend. In elementary school I looked forward to making Valentines for my classmates and then dropping them into the specially decorated brown paper bags on each desk. Did you do that at your school? Plus, my mom always makes the best Valentines and a special meal of heart-shaped meatloaf and pink mashed potatoes.

Mostly, I just really enjoy honoring love — romantic or otherwise — with a special day. Soooo, it should be no surprise that I have some Valentines for sale.

Now available in my Etsy shop. They come as singles or as sets. Flat Valentines are also for sale as singles and sets.

All of the designs in the Little Miss Smitten collection are great for Valentine’s Day, so check the shop for availability.

pink merci flat card (set of 8)

Tuesday, September 1st, 2009

You may recognize this design; in the past I used light blue paper. In this updated version, on 100% recycled white paper, the text and border are printed in bright pink.

As many of you know, “merci” is French for “thank you.” Giving thanks is so important, and it’s beautiful in every language.

The 3 1/2″ x 4 7/8″ (4 bar) design is perfect for a quick note. There’s enough room to say as much as you need. However, if you’re at a loss for words, just write a little bigger and it will look like you had a lot to say! A thank you note goes a long way, so it can never hurt to have a few on hand. This set of 8 cards and envelopes comes tied with twine.

To purchase, visit my Etsy shop or contact me.

custom design: corporate thank you notes

Monday, July 13th, 2009

I recently designed some custom thank you notes for Braza. I coordinated the colors with their website so they’d have a cohesive look and feel.

2009-07-13 047_edit

The cards are 3.5″ x 4.875″ (4 bar) flat cards, just like the notes I sell in my shop. The logo is semi-transparent, which allows them to write their thank you note right on top of it.

I really like the purple and pink color scheme!

cards: flat vs folded

Friday, February 27th, 2009

I love flat cards, and I offer a few different designs in my Etsy shop.

Q: What is a flat card?
A: It’s a card that’s flat (haha). Joking aside, it’s a card which has the writing area on the front, since there is no inside. There’s generally a design or text at the top or bottom of the card, and the rest is free for your handwritten note. Like other cards, these can be either vertical or horizontal. I’ve photographed my newest flat card from a few angles so you can see just how flat it really is.

As of today, I also offer folded cards in my Etsy shop.

Q: What is a folded card?
A: Folded cards are more traditional. They have a design and/or text on the cover, and space for a personal note on the inside. Below you can see my brand new folded card:
