I'm featured in Treasury West!

I'm so excited! One of my cards is featured in an Etsy Treasury! Check it out here.

Etsy Find: Just Another Day

I just discovered my new favorite etsy store, Just Another Day. I happily stumbled across the designer on We Love Etsy this weekend, and then I found her on Twitter! :) Networking sites never cease to amaze me at how small this world is.

These cards I found (she does many other things including stationery and pushpins) are absolutely adorable! I think my favorite is the birdcages, but it's hard to decide - there are so many cute things to look at! Go on over to her Etsy shop and check it out - maybe even purchase a card or two for your mom for mother's day! :)

Shop Spotlight: Polka Dot Shop

Since it's officially "Etsy Day" I decided that it would be a good day to spotlight some awesome shops! Polka Dot Shop on Etsy has some really cute cards! Even ones that are breakfast foods with faces - I think those ones are by far my favorite. Who wouldn't love a little piece of toast smiling back at them?:) Well, maybe you should just have the card with the toast - an actual smiling piece of toast would creep me out. Go check it out!

Sticker Flower Card

Another card today :)...I thought of this one while I was falling asleep last night, don't ask me why. Ideas just tend to come in that moment when I need my brain to quiet down the most. But I was thinking this card could be fun as even a personalized stationery set...insert your name instead of "happy birthday," or you could even leave it in blank and have a catch-all card that you can scribble in a message when ever you need something :) If you like this card just convo me through etsy and I'll set up a custom order for you or email me at eyeletsagestudio[!@]gmail.com.

Poppies are Popping up over at Etsy

I actually like how this photograph of the new poppy cards turned out..I didn't try to yellow it out, the lighting just was like that at the moment. It gives it that vintage kind of feeling I was going for -so I only really had to crop it in PhotoShop. This is probably my new favorite card over at my etsy shop. I love that a design can be 100 times better if you use simple shapes. If you like this card head on over, and if you would like to customized it for personalized notecards just convo me on etsy or email me at eyeletsagestudio[!@]gmail.com. Happy browsing! :)

Just Lemons

Hooray! Eyelet Sage Studio is introducing another card in the shop! Come visit the shop at etsy! If you like the image, but want different wording (maybe even a personalized stationery set for someone you know) just convo me on etsy or email me at eyeletsagestudio[!@]gmail.com.

Little Birdy

It's not a new design, but I still like it. :) This is the design that started it all...in terms of Etsy. Check it out!

Card Spotlight: made by keli

I just discovered made by keli today while searching on Etsy. It's one of those shops where I look around and I immediately want to start designing more cards myself. These simple designs seem to be doing pretty well and they are very reasonably priced. Go check Keli's shop out :)

Card Spotlight: Threefold - One for You, One for me

I absolutely love the idea of this card - especially the message on the back of the popsicle card from Threefold. It's like a friendship necklace for cards. My question is, do you send the card whole or do you send only half and have the person bring it the next time they see you?

Card Spotlight: Linda & Harriet

I like repeating patterns on cards like these from Linda&Harriet. It's so simple, but fun. If you have a chance, take a look at Linda and Harriet's letterpress designs.

Lines!

I decided to have some fun using one shape. The tulips on top are a part of the "flowers" on the bottom. The bottom one reminds me of spirographs. Does anyone remember those? We had a whole set of them when I was little that me and my sisters loved.

Card Spotlight: Crane&Co. Thank You Note Giveaway

Sometimes I love the envelope liners of stationery just as much if not more than the actually stationery itself. This beautiful thank you card and envelope are from Crane & Co. And the even better news is Crane&Co. is doing a promotion. Every month in 2009, they are giving away a box of these thank you cards to 10 lucky email subscribers. All you have to do is enter your email address here and you'll be all signed up. Good luck!

Anemone Wedding Invitations

Anemones are such awesome flowers, I've recently fallen in love with the white ones with navy blue centers, especially for bridal bouquets. So, I thought it would be fun to make some invitations that would match the flowers. Kind of fun :)

Wedding Thank You Cards

These thank you cards remind me of Little People - does anyone else remember those toys? I used to have a whole town for them. Anyways, they were the inspiration for this bride and groom who are just serious enough to be cute, if I do say so myself. You can find these at my shop. They're good for custom orders too - you can change them to the bride and grooms name or have the bride and groom slightly altered. :)

Would You Like to Join me for Tea?

Just a little invitation inspiration from my morning tea party. Find other designs by Eyelet Sage Studio at the shop. If you would like to request these invitations just leave a comment or send a convo through etsy.

Easter Dots

Sometimes all you need are some dots :)...another installment of Easter cards. Sort of like modified Easter eggs.

Easter Part Two

I'm having a bit too much fun with the Easter cards, but it's hard not to when it's such a delightful holiday! I always got a new dress for Easter and was allowed to wear my white straw hat, white gloves and patent leather white shoes when I was little. This card reminds me a little bit of being little and doodling wax drawings on eggs before dying them.

Easter Chick

Easter's coming! And so are some very fun designs from Eyelet Sage...haha, well, at least the studio thinks so. Hope you enjoy them!

It's coming up...black-eyed Susans

Since it was sunny out today, I decided to design some sunny flowers :). My challenge? use only one shape. So besides the stems, stinger and stripe, all the rest of this card is made from one shape.

So I've decided to have a little fun. And let people vote on my designs. Why not let everyone decide which new designs head over to my etsy store? So everyone, cast your votes in the comments and maybe your favorite design will be sold through etsy!
