About the shop: I sell handmade greeting cards and other paper goods for all occasions
What’s your story, how did you get started?
I started selling cards to support my paper addiction. I had a shoebox full of cards and nothing to do with them. I started listing items on ETSY and it grew from there. I really do this for stress relief. I have a full time job, family and elderly parent that lives with me so paper crafting is my “me” time.
What’s your muse?
Paper inspires me. All of the patterns and designs scream out to me ʺcreateʺ.
What are your favorite materials when creating?
Paper, paer and more paper. Also, I love my ATG tape gun. Couldn’t craft without that one.
What are your goals?
I would like to have more ETSY sales and do two shows a year to start. I’d like to meet other paper artists and craft together. I think that would be a lot of fun.
Any advice to share?
I’ve learned that your stuff can not look like everyone elses. That is one reason I don’t have a die cutting machine. I don’t want to have the same cut outs as everyone else. Also, you have to love what you create.
