Great Link to a Freebie

Long time no post!

Life has been hectic lately. So, my blogging generally suffers as a result.

But, today, I took a little break to do a bit of blog surfing and came across the cutest free printable apple notes courtesy of Ez over at Creature Comforts. If you have not been to her site, you should check it out. It is one of the prettiest blogs out there in the blogging world, in my humble opinion.

I am so happy that it is Friday! We are celebrating the Victoria Day long weekend with a few BBQ's, parades and picnics, so I'm really praying for sunshine.

I hope you have a fantastic, relaxing weekend!

29-day Giving Challenge - Giveaway

I recently joined the 29-Day Giving Challenge (button on the left sidebar). I can't wait to get started with this! I have always believed in giving to those less fortunate than myself, but this is different. It's about giving to anyone, and hopefully spread that in a Pay-it-forward manner.



So, I have decided that I will give away a set of 6 Thank You cards that I just finished making about an hour ago. Here it is:

To enter the giveaway draw, leave a comment here on this post and be sure to include your email address so I can contact you if you`re the winner. Comments will be closed at midnight on Tues. February 17th and I will announce the winner the next day. Good luck!

Sympathy Cards

It's the type of card that I don't create very often, but last week I had a request for a few, so I thought I'd share pictures.

A peek at the prize (#1)

Whoops! I guess I'm a little late posting the first picture, but here is one item that will go into the GRAB BAG that I'll be giving to the winner of the draw mentioned in my previous post.

This one features some of my favourite materials: pretty patterned paper, ribbon, flowers and a bit of bling with the clear sparkly jewel.

Be sure to stop in tomorrow for another peek!

A little A.H.D. contest giveaway

Okay, just for some fun, I want to give away some product. So, leave a comment on this post, answer my trivia questions, and you'll be entered to win a GRAB BAG of my products. And just for incentive, I will post a picture sometime over the next days to show you what's in it, starting tomorrow.

Comments linked to this post until Friday 05.25.07 will be entered into the draw, to take place on Monday morning 05.28.07. Please be sure to check back on Monday afternoon (after 12pm PST).

Okay, so here are the questions that can be answered just by digging around my blog(s), hint, hint.

1) What is the name of my other blog?
2) On what date did I join Etsy?
3) What did I make with Playdoh on May 17th?

Good luck!

Father's Day

Dad's day is coming next. See my Etsy store for my newest Accordian Folded Card / Mini Album! It's sure to bring tears to even the most stoic of Dad's.

It can be used solely as a greeting card, but to really make it a personal gift, you can add little pictures of you and good 'ol Dad. And it looks great on display. Please click on the link to the right to get a better look!

Custom Orders and a Sale

Just wanted to share the happiness I feel for this business! And if I were more outgoing...I'd probably be dancing around right now.

I've just received my 3rd custom order this week, and it's only Wednesday! It feels so good when my design work gets acknowledgement like this. 1 has been for a quantity order of my notecards, and 2 more for personalized journals. And since I love paper art, I'm more than happy to lose a few zzzzz's at night to get these orders filled.

This is so great, that I want to celebrate by offering a sale on my Etsy site!

From today until May 21st, 2007 I am offering a discount of 10-15%, depending on how many items you buy. See the link at the right sidebar for more info.

Kid's Birthday Cards

A friend recently pointed out that she never finds Birthday cards for kids, here on my site. So, I thought that maybe it's time that I do some up! I even made a few extra for myself to keep on hand. Here's a few of the more boy-ish ones:

Price: $3.00 Cdn each, comes with a white envelope.

Shipping via Canada Post lettermail service: $0.55 per card

Note Card Sets

These Note Cards Sets have just been added to my Etsy store. They are blank inside and sized 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 inches. Very pretty, and practical, since they would be great for almost any occasion!

If you'd like to order direct, or want them in different colours, just send me an email at amiedesigns@yahoo.ca .

Set of 2 Notecards: $3.95US or $4.50 Cdn.
