There nearly wasn't a post today - shock, horror! I have had such a busy time at work recently and in the evenings I have been so pooped. I am also blaming all of you blogging ladies out there with all your gorgeous projects keeping me up until the wee hours on my hops LOL!
I was saved by this card which is from a 100 years ago, which I found in my little concertina file, the place where I keep the cards I am going to use and not sell or give away. This card was pre-copics and I just used my Stampin' Up! markers - which I think look pretty good.
I am also testing the water a little for some advice and opinion from all of you ,my friends. I have seen a few ladies in the states do a Stampin' Boutique and I was thinking of setting up my own. It would involve having a separate page on my blog for selling my projects and maybe some retired Stampin' Up! products in the future (if I can bear to part with them). It would be sort of like my own Etsy shop. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Obviously with posting daily I have lots and lots and lots of cards and after the craft fayres and the family get their pick I still have loads left over and wanted a way to share with everyone - whadya think?
Have a great day & see you tomorrow xx

Hi Emma,
The Stamping Boutique sounds a good idea. Why not just try it and see what happens? Nothing ventures and all that haha!
Love this card too - very cute and lovely colour combo.

What a cutie love the colours so alive. I like the idea ofyou selling your stuff you shouldn't have any problems you've lots of fans out here!
Hi, Emma..
Great card! Love it.
I have had a separate blog (or 'flog' as I call it! lol) for some time, but not sold a bean through it. (Although not really tried selling craftwork through it, because people just won't pay appropriate prices. They'd rather spend a fiver on a piece of mass-produced tat from a high street card shop. Can't get my head around that. Sorry.. sore point!! lol). Don't want to put a downer on your idea, and there are so many variables involved that could affect it's performance, so I say go for it.. As Lesley said, nothing ventured, nothing gained!! :o)
Best wishes with that...
Hugs,
Chris xx
Lovely card Emma, great image and colours. x
Gorgeous card, you've always been uber talented then I see!
Boutique is a great idea, I have a separate website I sell my creation on, don't sell loads, but a few go that way.
All the best, have a good weekend

Phew, at least you had this little beauty to save you from the horror of not posting daily!
I love this cutie, super colouring even if it is pre-copics!
An Etsy style kinda shop is a fab idea - at least worth a try anyways, & if you don't sell anything you've got my addy ;D
Have a fab weekend hun!
Hugs,
