Etsy Finds

Haven't done one of these in a while and with Christmas coming up thought I'd start again.

In case you haven't noticed I love "cute". One of my favorite shops is Stephanie Fizer Coleman's TheFoxandTheTeacup
She has some adorable prints and other items and I've even requested custom items from her before. I adore her calendars which are only available this time of year.

52 Weeks of Mail

52 Weeks of Mail, brought to you by Etsy Greetings Team, is designed to encourage people to be more intentional about relationships and keeping in touch with friends and family by sending out a card or letter each week, for the next year. I don't know about you, but I LOVE getting a personal, hand-written card or letter in the mail.

Throughout 52 Weeks of Mail, we are asking everyone to commit ...to sending just ONE card or letter each week. You can send more than one, of course! 52 Weeks of Mail BEGINS on October 9th, 2011, and ends on October 7th, 2012. Please feel free to blog about this event, or share it on your Facebook page. Share it on Twitter, or any other social networking site too!

We are hoping to get 1000 LIKES by the end of September. Please help out by sharing this with all of your Facebook friends! Let's make this viral!

If you are looking for some GREAT handmade cards to send out to your friends and family, please visit http://www.etsy.com/search/handmade?search_submit&q=etsygreetingsteam&view_type=list&ship_to=US

Here's a great idea: When you send your card to Grandma (or whomever), send a brand new card with an envelope that already has a stamp on it, so that she can send a card to someone else! Be sure to explain in your card what you are doing, so she will know why you sent her a brand new card. :-)
 

Found this I think through another blog, very cool.

Etsy Find-Immortal Shakespeare

I have long been intrigued by this shop on Etsy as I have long been a Shakespeare fan. I love the moodiness of the pieces they create. They are called Immortal Longings and are based in England!

Today I'm spotlighting Stephanie Fizer. She has adorable and whimsical designs that feature beautiful watercolor work. She even has collections like "Alice in Wonderland", "Garden Fairies", and "Japanese Kokeshi Dolls".  I love their colors and she offers a wide variety of products like listpads, prints, calendars and stickers. My favorite items though are her collections of small notebooks (5 in a pack). I carry these everywhere with me as they are perfect for throwing in your purse. I like to write down what I need for craft projects so I'll always have my list with me when I'm at the store.

I love this artist, Britney Lee. She has done work for Disney, which is one reason I love her. I love her use of color and she likes cats!

One of her series I love is her Hawaiian gods series like this print.
