Not your Grannie's Christmas Cards
I feel like a little elf lately, running my holiday workshop. These are my latest Chirstmas Card sets!
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.

French Knot DIY Tutorial
If you are not already familiar with the DIY STITCHIES Embroidery Card Kits, go check them out here. These kits are great for beginners that want to try out embroidery on paper. The holes are all laser cut so its really easy to get started. All of the cards can be made using a simple backstitch and a french knot. I made this french knot tutorial because sometimes its much easier to learn by watching (at least for me it is). The STITCHIES kits are ready to ship from my shop.
Please note, sometimes when you are working with embroidery on paper, the french knot will go right through the hole on accident. Don't freak if this happens. Make another french knot right on top of the existing knot until its bulky enough to not go through the hole.

Embroidery Card On Etsy Homepage

I was plesantly surpirsed to see etsy useing my image in one of the storque articles about Understanding Online Advertising. Advertising is one aspect of my handmade business that I have been a big fat slacker. Anybody have any good ideas for getting the most bang for your buck when it comes to advertising?
