New Nature Notecards For Handmade Monday


I took the chance to photograph some of my new notecards in the lovely sunshine we had earlier in the week and since then i've been getting them edited and listed online. Its not my favourite job but as long as i do it a bit at a time i don't go too crazy... Anyone else find that the amount of computer work required to run an online crafty is a bit of a drag when you'd rather be merrily creating with sewing needle/paintbrush in hand?!


New Nature Notecards

The fun bit of creating my cards is taking the photographs, i love the way the camera gives me the opportunity to share the beauty of the natural world.

I have four new cards to show you today, they are all printed on top quality 350GSM paper from a renewable source and are available to buy now from my website and Etsy shop priced £1.99 each (or £1.75 if you buy more than one).

As always, i look forward to hearing your thoughts in the comments!

  1. The poppies are beautiful and perfect for remembering WWI. The weeks seem to be flying by I can't believe it's August already. Have a lovely crafty week, not too much computer work I hope.

  2. Love those poppies! Oh yes, listing on websites is such a tedious job. It can totally drive you crazy if you do too much of it! x

  4. The poppies are lovely -quite a harvest - autumnal look to the pictures which of course the way we are heading - quite fast as you say! I definitely find the time spent photographing and uploading more of a nuisance than a pleasure - I'd much rather be sewing or crocheting!

  9. Bit late with my comments as I've been on hols. I especially like the first picture with the wheatfield and poppies, and I think the photographs of the cards are best when they are at an angle and you can tell it is a card.
