A new idea...

Yesterday...or was it Monday?... Anyway, a couple days ago or so I decided to start making custom coupon booklets. If you have no idea what I’m talking about, take a look at my listing here:
I made the decision because I’ve had over 170 views on the coupon booklet above. I figure if I offer custom ones maybe I’ll actually get a sale! J
Now, I know I say on my policies section that I have a limited supply and I still do but I figure the customer can get in touch with me via my e-mail (theicedragon16@gmail.com) and we can chat and I can let them know what colors (Black/ Blues/ Reds/ Purples/ Greens/ Pinks/ Etc.) and stamps I have and can also send them pictures of the stamps as well.
I really hoping this idea will help boost my sales since I’ve only had one so far!
Let me know if you think this idea is good or not. I’d love to get some feedback!

The Making of "Elegant Purple In My Thoughts Today" card


I started off by stamping and embossing "Just to let you know you're in my thoughts today" on light purple metalic paper in black ink.



This is a closer shot of it.



This is the background part way finished.


I really like using the different shade of purple on the dark purple paper. It make it look like the paper came like that.


 I used a light purple, dark purple and a maroonish color ink.




Here I was debating which way to set it up. I used a white metalic paper, which had crimped dark metalic purple paper on top of that and the "Just to let you know you're in my thoughts today" on that.

Here I was thinking of maybe turning the dark metalic purple paper..


And here is the finished product:


Tell me what you think!

And check out more photos and where to buy it here:

Coupon Booklet for men

 Yesterday I made a coupon book to sell in my shop. 
                                                                                  

It came out great! I was really excited. Took me a bit to make it but I think it was well worth my time.
 I’m really happy I went out to Michaels to get some more “manlier” paper. Haha. Now all I need to do is get some more “manlier” stamps and I’ll be all set!

Business Cards

Yesterday I finally order real business cards from www.vistaprint.com. They give you 250 business cards for free and all you have to pay for is shipping. You get the basic designs and can’t change where you put things but there are ways to work around it and plus, it’s free, I really can’t complain.
I really like the design I picked out. I wish the background was black instead of white cause I’m not much a fan of white but I like it none the less.
Anyway, I wanna hear what you think about it..
