Sew Cute

I just came across these really awesome embroidered wedding invitations from ReadyMade. It makes me want to get married just so I can order these! Actually... that's a lie, but either way I want to do something like this!!! It's so inspiring but it overwhelms me when I want to make basically everything that I see.

I hope you like these as much as I like them!

all things taxidermy!

Taxidermy can be kind of gross but I had to refrain from LOLing at work when looking at these. I hope you don't think I'm disgusting now :)

This one can be in honor of "Pretty Things Friday"


This is what Otto's future looks like:

more postcards!

I had a super-productive day today! I basically spent all day on these postcards.
Here are three different sets of postcards. Each set will have 3 postcards. I still have to lamenate these and mat them to another paper but here they are...

Set One: Travel







Set Two: Love/Friendship







Set Three: Internet Memes







Hope you like them! Will be on my Etsy sooner or later.

Postcards

I am working on a couple sets of postcards that will soon be on my Etsy account. I'm thinking there will be about 3 or 4 sets with 3 or 4 different cards in each set, but right now I have only a travel set and one of a love/friendship set.

The postcards are about 4x6 hand drawn with zig pens and then watercolor painted on top. I will have to mat them to something so they are sturdier. On the back will be regular postcard things (probably hand written.)

I am also thinking that since postcards, and mail in general, are becoming outdated, that I would sell the postcards already stamped... It would kind of be annoying on my part to buy a whole bunch of stamps, but I think people would be more likely to write it and put it in the mail if there was already a stamp on it. Comment on what you think, it would help a lot :)

A couple of pictures of the cards.






It was unintentional at first that I did a travel theme... maybe I subconsciously want to go somewhere. Actually, yes, I do...

So, please tell me if you would buy these on Etsy (or at a craft fair)... they would come in packs of 3 or 4 but they would all be different and all handmade :)
