One of my all time favorite holiday poems is "Twas The Night Before Christmas," by Clement Clarke Moore. I decided to honor that poem and create these hand screen printed and carefully typeset cards. Each card, in the set of 8, contains a bit of the poem, so that when you lay them all out, you can read it in it's entirety.

Behind The Scenes- Screenprinted Jelly Fish Blank Cards
I was inspired to make these cards after watching the underwater Planet Earth series. I fell in love with the beauty of the transparent jelly fish floating along so gracefully. Mother nature does a fantastic job of keeping me inspired! This is my abstracted representation of those ethereal jelly fish. using carefully considered eco friendly materials. The cards are blank on the inside for your message. There will be slight variation from card to card due to the nature of screen printing.
Thats me lineing up the paper so everything is registered. All the cards were printed at The Pull, an independent screen printing shop.
Check out that pink ink! I'm really not much of a pink kind of girl but I really like the way it turned, especially on the green paper.
After the cards are printed, they go through the scoreing machine so they have a professional fold. Then they are packed in a cello sleeve with a CuriousDoodles insert label.
All of the paper is 100% recycled from post consumer waste which is really cool.
They are ready to ship from my etsy shop.

DIY STICHIES Embroidery Card Kits
I am so excited to share my first line of DIY Embroidery kits in my etsy shop!
Embroidery + Minimal Typography + Beautiful Paper= STITCHIES
This kit is perfect for the DIY-er exploring emerging niche of modern embroidery. Each card is laser cut to make it easier to sew (like connect the dots). They are made out a beautiful recycled paper with a subtle woven texture and matching envelopes. STITCHIES are oh so tactile and will be treasured far longer than the usual electronic correspondence.
If you love the look of these cards but don't want to do the sewing, I have some sewn cards ready to ship in the shop.
What does the kit come with??
• 5 laser cut cards and matching envelopes
• Needle and quality red thread
• Instructions
• Zip-lock bag organizer (great for on-the-go projects)
Here is an example of what one the finished cards looks like.
So I've been a little quiet on the blog lately. That is becuase I have been busy making lots of new stuff for the shop. Thank you for being so patient. I will be sharing more of my latest projects over the next week.
