My Creative Space

It's My Creative Space post today!

Last couple of days I've been tinkering with new promo material here.
I took a few new pictures, drafted a mini poster and got a new business card template as well.

What is mini poster you might be wondering.
People are always curious about the item and its background and also a person behind the item. So I came up with an idea of such a mini poster that I could deliver to those boutiques that sell Karuski collection. This comes in A5 size and will be framed nicely and placed next to Karuski purses and jewelry. I write a bit of myself and materials I use which play a major part in my design process. I could use this mini poster at my craft fair tables too.

So this idea is free to use if you like it.
I hope you find it inspirational and useful!

My Creative Space

Yesterday I started to produce a new lot of visit cards for Karuski. I printed, cut and stamped a bunch of them. 180 pieces to be precise. They are small in size but big in thought and I plan to deliver them to Karuski friends on my next fair which will take place 24. - 25.4. on Kaapelitehdas, Helsinki.

Also, I needed more thank you cards with tiny butterflies to add along my Etsy orders. I made these below in a shade of light violet yesterday. They are just waiting for being stamped. Soon they will be ready.



I'm not sure if I'll have a moment to make a blog post tomorrow.
I'm wishing a Happy Easter to all of you right now!

Free Shipping

I decided to participate on Etsy's Black Friday/Cyber Monday promotion. I'm offering free worldwide shipping fro Friday 11/27 through Monday 11/30. It's a good chance to make little holiday shopping for yourself or someone special who likes girly earrings or purses. I probably wont make additional promotions before Christmas so benefit of zero shipping at my expense now! I will refund promptly after the purchase through PayPal.

ps. All Karuski items arrive beautifully giftwrapped at no extra expenses!

Poppytalk!

I got really nice news this week: I got accepted to Poppytalk Handmade! Mother's Day & Kids Market will take place April 13 - May 8. This is my first time to be there, I'm pretty excited. I can't wait to see all other artists and labels who will be there. Of course I will hope for sales too, that's for sure. But the best thing is to be seen there. In a good company. Come to visit my showcase next week. And don't forget to visit their blogs here, here and here. Good for your eye and brain, me thinks!

Spring Promo Time

In December I participated in GetEurofied sampler box promotion for the first time. I prepared a bunch of bookmarks with my birdie print with a free shipping gift certificate. I think this is a fun way to show a glimpse of your work to new people. That's why I wanted to make something for the Spring Box. I came up with an idea of bobby pins, decorated with vintage cabochons and little sea shells I collected last summer. They turned out quite pretty, I think. These sampler boxes come for sale on April 1st. You can get one for yourself here!
