happy day to you!

Since the weather has just been so glorious the last few days I decided to list my 'happy day to you!' note cards! They are ever so cheerful! Wouldn't you love to receive one of these in the mail?! The note cards come as a set of 6 and are blank on the inside.

I hope that the weather continues to be great all summer (as I do have a wedding coming up!) because it is a great feeling to wake up every morning to the bright sunshine!

For the book lovers

For all the book lovers out there, or just the people who hate borrowing a book to someone and never have it returned, you can now put bookplates in your book with your name on it! They are in the shop already and come as a set of 6. You will receive 2 of each color and they are printed on handy dandy sticker labels!

Enjoy!

Small Bookplates $4.00

Retro Lady and Dachshund already on front page!

I was shocked to see that only 15 hours after I listed my retro lady & dachshund flat cards they made it to the front page! Big thanks to Xenotees for including my cards in her treasury!

A new design was introduced to the shop today! I just love making cute little clothes for this retro lady! Pretty soon here I am going to have to give her a name because she is popping up in quite a few designs these days (soon a few more will be introduced to the shop! shhh...!!) These retro flat cards come as a set of 6 and paired with a chocolate brown envelope.

You can find her here!

Have a great weekend all! I am off to do a TON of wedding things! Hopefully I can get quite a few of them checked off!

Objects of Affection Feature

I am quite surprised at all the lovely features I have been in lately! It is so nice of you all to include my products in your posts! (especially since my shop has been a bit dry lately!) Lani, of Objects of Affection, featured my retro lady invitations in her Wednesday Wishlist. Lani is also a seller on etsy and you can find her shop lanisvintage right here.

Retro Lady invitations can be found in my etsy shop!

Handcrafted Wedding Feature

Lynn, of Handcrafted Wedding, featured my red poppy notecards on Monday for her Memorial Day post. She writes:

"Today is the day the United States sets aside to honor the memory of people who have died in service to our country. This weekend I heard a beautiful poem that was written by Moina Michael in 1918 who is the school teacher that started the tradition of wearing a red poppy in honor of fallen heroes. It is called "We Shall Keep the Faith" . The last verse is what started the tradition.

And now the Torch and Poppy Red
We wear in honor of our dead.
Fear not that ye have died for naught;
We'll teach the lesson that ye wrought
In Flanders Fields*."

I never knew that people handed out red poppies in honor of fallen heroes, but it now gives poppies a bit of a new meaning for me!
