Now Introducing Maybe Sparrow Gifts!

Finally carved out some time to post for y'all, I had surgery today and I was hallucinating while sedated about listing on Etsy. How sad that Etsy is what I dream about, haha! Anyway, I have opened up a second shop on Etsy for my jewelry, printable cards, greeting cards, and onesies. I will be transitioning more items from the first store to the second, but so far I'm getting some good responses and views :) I've just created two new lovely Save the Date cards, and will be experimenting much more with Illustrator and actually designing my own cards this year.

Please go check out my new shop, Maybe Sparrow Gifts, on Etsy! 

And as always, thanks for everyone's continued support for my work!

Vintage Prints

I got this great clipart recently from  Madame Bricolage and have 

made some new prints from my purchase. 

I've had a lot of fun coloring and playing around with the vintage clipart, 

and hope to have more to show you all soon!

I'm Sorry, So Sorry...

I've been a bad blogger lately. I'm the first to admit that blogging is a bit of a chore, and the past few times I've tried to blog for some reason it will not let me publish my posts so instead of trying to fix the issue I just give up. BUT no more! I'm back at it, readers! 

I have been busy trying to make and create lots of Valentines items for my shops over the past few weeks. 

This photograph has been getting a lot of love (har, har) on Etsy lately; 

I love the pastels and softness in this one.

My new favorite products I've created this week are these messenger bags 

with my photos on them from Zazzle.

Finally, this sweatshirt won Zazzle's "TBA" award last week for best new design. Please go check out my stuff and show them some love, I'd greatly appreciate some viewership to my new site on Zazzle!
If you have a Zazzle site, post it in the comment section so I can check it out as well.

Well, I'm off to make some greeting cards and get my creativity on in my new office/crafting area.
I hope everyone is having a lovely Monday morning!

Sweet Vintage Valentine's Cards for You!

I have been making a new series of greeting cards that are available for digital download through my Etsy website. They are vintage style, super romantic and sweet! Take a look below at a few of them and let me know what you think! I've been dipping a bit back into my graphic design roots (I spent a few semesters in art school back in the day), but I've been keeping it very minimal. 

Hope you all enjoy these and have a good night!

Treasuries Galore!

I am very lucky to be featured in a slew of treasuries on Etsy every day. I thought I'd take the time to give some of these treasuries some love, and also post my latest treasury which has --almost-- 300 views so far! Show all these treasuries some love, and post your own treasuries in the comment sections below! Thanks and Happy Sunday!

First Mondays

So next weekend I am going to be participating in First Monday, and it will be my very first craft show with my photography! It has already been a little overwhelming and there are so many things on my to do list. The main stressor for me is the setup. But I have been getting some good ideas online, and have come up with some cute ways to display my photos. Here are a few things I've purchased so far:

This is a cool antique file board that i'll display my postcards and smaller prints on. 

It came from Cheryl's Etsy shop. She's got some other really cool finds, check it out!

This is a super cool vintage train case that I will put some of my matted prints in. 

It came from The Frabjous Day. Also lots of great finds there!

I found these precious little bird easels from this shop that I will probably get to display a few pieces.

Lastly, I have started making a few greeting cards to sell at the fair. I apologise for the horrible photographs, didn't have my camera and I had to take the pictures with my computer!

This is my first attempt at greeting card making, so go easy on me! 

They are much lovlier in person, trust me!

More on this subject later, I am trying my hardest not to stress right before Christmas.

 It should be a really great time though!
