It's All About Etsy!!

Ok - so I bet a few of you thought I wouldn't make it ... but I did officially open my Etsy shop today - at 23:49 - so it was on my birthday ... just as I said. There's not a whole lot in there just now but a bunch of cards ... but I do have a whole lotta projects to finish up & list.
It has an RSS feature, so you can sign up to the feed if you are that way inclined! And obviously I'll be updating my li'l bloggy here with the odd peek at my new creations.
If there is anyone who is still unsure as to what an etsy shop is ... basically it is an online venue with loooooads of shops selling mostly handmade stuff - you can sell a bit of scrappy supplies/kits & the like but it is mostly there to sell handmade. If you look over to the right of this blog - you'll see my Etsy link - just click on the shop name ... yup! it's 'crafty moments' & that will take you right to my store.
& if you like what you see - please e-mail it to all your friends (there's a feature to do that in the etsy store) and join the list of peeps that {heart} my store.
I'm a li'l bit excited about this ... can you tell???
Oh! and I have been taking on board all your suggestions for both the Etsy store and our new monthly kits ... I think you are gonna like what I've got planned!
I shall probably be offline mostly tomorrow - family BBQ for my birthday - but I'll be back very soon with more winners n stuff!

I Take Coolpix!

My MIL took me shopping to buy a new camera (an early birthday pressie) when I was visiting last week & I'm now the proud owner of this fabby (& Purple!) li'l camera. Obviously it had to be idiot proof ... with image stability & cool zoom features!
I am so impressed with it! LOL. I'm even taking close up shots of the details on cards etc when I don't need to ... just so as I get to play.
The guy in the store wanted to sell us a rather naff looking 'leather look' camera case ... lotta money for li'l style ... so I made my own that very evening! Granted, I didn't finish until 3 am but it was soooo worth it!
It's actually the prototype for the ones I'm planning on offering in my Etsy store (more about that nearer the time!) & the finished article will have a few improvements ... but it does the job rather well! And in case you aren't a pink kinda person (!) it'll be available in other colours too!
