They're Here and A Giveaway

Thank you everyone for your wonderful comments on  my last post where I featured my daughter's first attempt at photographing people.  She absolutely loved reading all of your great comments and sends her heartfelt appreciation!   I hope that she will now be encouraged to get out there and take more pictures!

Well, after months of debating, I finally did it.  I ordered some cards and opened up an Etsy shop!  I received the cards last Friday, but I was so busy running around all weekend that I didn't have a chance to take photos of them or to officially open my shop until today.

#1

There are 4 different images in each set I'm offering in my Etsy shop, but the one above is my favorite.

 The cards are blank inside, but I did get fancy smancy and I put my name on the back.

#2

I'm really pleased with these note cards and the card stock they are printed on is really nice and heavy as well.

#3

Of course they come with envelopes too, and they will be packaged in plastic to keep them nice, safe, and clean during shipping.

The one above is my second favorite, I love the soft aqua background that was provided by the paint on my bedroom walls which I used as a backdrop when I took this shot.

And while I was setting up my Etsy store, I decided what the heck?!  And I added a few other items that I had leftover from my last house, but that just don't fit in to this one.  This little wooden hen and chicks used to hang on the wall in my kitchen.

I love the rusty whirly bird bug in her mouth, the twisted wire legs, the cute little chicks clinging to their momma as she brings home the day's dinner, it's folk art fun!  If you're interested, you can click here to buy her and have her come to roost at your own house!   She has a wire tooth hanger on the back to hang on the wall, or there is a drilled hole in the body, just in front of the first chick where you can mount her on a wooden dowel, sorry I don't have a stand for her though.

I also have this metal wall hook for sale.  I love the bright red tulips and the verdigris hook.  This also used to hang in my former kitchen and I hung a Longaberger wall basket on the hook to collect the mail in each day.

Another folk art inspired hen.  I love her carved white spots, and her rustic farmhouse charm.  She can also be mounted onto a wall, but I used to have her perched atop my antique pie safe.  

All of these pieces have served me well, but they just don't seem to go in this house, so it's time they moved on to another happy home.  

If you are interested in any of these, you can purchase them, or a set of note cards, by clicking HERE and visiting my new Etsy Store.  All orders will be processed and shipped within 5 business days!

Thanks for your continued support, without it I never would have gone ahead and made the cards.

Oh and to celebrate and as a way of saying thank you, I'm giving away a set of my note cards.  All you have to do is post a comment telling me which card you love the best...1, 2, 3, or 4...in order starting at the top of the page.  That's it my friends!  I'll let my random friend pick the winner or Friday and let you know who won this Saturday!
