A crazy creative girl who fell in love with stamps...
{My Story}
I started stamping on November 14th, 2003. I got engaged the same night and my life will never be the same. I went crazy making all sorts of things for our wedding- and I LOVED it.
After that, I spent a lot of time making cards, gift bags and tags, brag books, scrapbook pages and more for friends and family.
In 2008 a former co-worker asked me to make her wedding invitations and so my first order was started. It was all trial and error and in the end I learned so much about myself, my business, and where I wanted to take this as time went on... Her invites were beautiful and I thank her everyday for letting me begin somewhere.
When my daughter was about 4 months old, I started to get ideas for her first birthday- I chose a cupcake theme and again my creativity grew! I made cupcake toppers, hanging decor, a banner and more for her party.
I started to steadily get orders for all sorts of items from family and friends. Pretty soon I was setting up a shop and recently it has exploded! 2012 was my BEST year, so far, with over 500 sales & 1500 Facebook Fans!!
I am happy to say I am the busiest I have EVER been and I love it!!! I love sharing my passion for parties and all things adorable with all of you!
{How it works...}
Almost ALL of the items in my shop were originally custom requests. I am SO busy that I don't generally have the time to take all my ideas for themes and make all of them up and add them to the shop. I am SO grateful to all of the people who have trusted my creativity and embraced the custom process. I adore custom orders and am THRILLED when someone tells me to "do my thang!"
