Tie My Heart

I thought this is such a stunning collection that Heidi of Heidi Adnum put together on Etsy. It is an honor to have my Kisses Greeting Card included here and it was so exciting that it was on the front page of Etsy very early Saturday morning EST.

Celebrate Mom

Don't forget that Mother's Day is less then a month away. It's coming up on May 8th! It's always special for Mom to be remembered. I really like the quote below regarding the power of Mom and her ability to always be there for us:


"A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts."  ~Washington Irving

It is always exciting to see one of my cards on the front page of Etsy. A huge thank you to The Vintage Apartment for taking me there. I hope you enjoy my bon voyage card below and the treasury it was featured in entitled "a happy place" that made it to the front page of Etsy.

Dog Silhouettes

For those of you who don't know already I am a huge dog fan. We have two dogs that were both adopted from a rescue group in Texas called The Woodlands Dog Club Park. I was honored to create a custom thank you note for this group. I wanted to share the designs with you. What do you think? I am considering adding pet silhouette cards to my shop on etsy.

The Lovely Blogger List

Lovely Clusters truly lives up to its name of being lovely! There are so many fab finds here and I am a huge fan of the site and blog. Rachel of Lovely Clusters has created a blogger list featuring all types of artisans. It is a great way to get to know other creatives and puruse their offerings. 

Boxed Set of 10 Lavender Merci Notes

I wanted to share with you a little bit about myself. As you probably have guessed by now my name is Fiona and I adore all things paper. I am passionate about designing in general but especially stationery and greeting cards. I have had the opportunity to design custom stationery for many a friend, as well as the greeting cards found in my store. Not only do I design the greetings but I also love coming up with the sayings for each card. 

Happy Happy Birthday Greeting Card

So many things inspire me - the loved ones in my life especially - many of the sentiments on the cards were created with them in mind. From a visual perspective I am constantly inspired and in awe of nature, flowers, birds, landscapes, you name it. I love taking photographs that you can see here on my blog. Knitting and painting pet portraits in acrylics also really sparks my creativity.
