Doggy Cards

If you know me at all, you know I love doggies. And thanks to your requests, I've listed 4 new doggy greeting cards in my shop! I've got a Westie, a Yorkie, a Portuguese Water Dog, and of course an Airedale :) These simple illustrations are really fun, so if you know anyone who loves their doggy, send them my way! I can do more of these for more breeds.

Blank inside. $15 for a set of 10.

Come See Us at the Fair

If you missed seeing us at the Cache County Fair, you've got another chance because we've got a booth at the Box Elder County Fair this week - Aug 26 to 29th over in Tremonton, Utah.

Our booth space is a lot bigger this time, so we'll have even more great stuff to show you. Plus, who doesn't love fair food and funnel cakes!

For more info on the Box Elder Fair, check out their site for the info on how to get there, the entertainment and other fun activities. Hope to see you there!

August Round-Up

Wow, August has been quite the month and it's not over yet!

Show and Tell
For inspiration this month, we used "Back to School" as our theme.




Bonnie of Days Gone By Inc. made this super cool altered composition book. She used super cute papers in blues and brown and it ties shut with a brown shoelace.







Taralee of TaraDuff made this super cute beanie to show support for our Utah State Aggies (USU is in Logan- where we are). This one is made of cotton thread so you head will stay toasty during those fall football games.




For September, the Challenge theme is Halloween/Fall. Whether you're into pumpkins and ghosts or just love the autumn leaves, this should inspire to get you ready for the fun fall season ahead. I know September to Nov 15 is my favorite time of the year.

This month we also learned about Search Engine Optimization for our Etsy shops. It's amazing what a few minues can do to increase your shop's presence on the web! If you want to check out the article we discussed and get to work, check it out here.

We also have the Box Elder Fair coming up next week, August 26- 29 in Tremonton, Utah. Our booth will be even bigger and we look forward to showing our stuff to even more people! If you're in the neighborhood, drop by. We'll be in booth #54.
