2nd annual LA renegade craft fair

i can’t believe it’s been over a month since my last blog entry promoting the renegade craft fair and now i’m about to share a few pics from the event. it’s safe to say in between that time, i was prepping and working on new designs to debut at the craft fair. all new designs are now posted and available for purchase on my etsy shops, inacard.etsy.com and simplewear.etsy.com

this was my first time doing a craft fair and i couldn’t have asked for a better one to start off with then the Renegade Craft Fair. such a wonderful experience and i can’t wait to do it again! i’m so glad my friend Jen Hewett, of Jen Hewett Studios, asked me to join her to share a booth and honored that we were chosen as one of their selected vendors.

here are a few pics of the booth that were taken in between all the great people that stopped in to check out the goods, shop and chit chat.

here is my booth mate Jen Hewett and her wonderful silk screened goods.  Jen is an illustrator and a printmaker and she’s just simply FABULOUS!  you can see more of her wonderful work and learn more about Jen on her blog.

i’ve had this print of hers bookmarked in my favorites for over a year and now i finally have it!  i can’t wait to get it framed and up in the bedroom.

don’t be jealous, you can get one too on her Etsy shop, jenhewett.etsy.com

the next few blog posts will be of some new designs i debuted at the craft fair, now posted on both the in a card Etsy shop and the simplewear Etsy shop.  i was really inspired by people’s reactions to certain products so my mind has been on the go since, with new ideas.  make sure to check back in for all the latest and greatest!

to all family & friends that came by and showed your love and support, THANK YOU…  you are always the true source of my inspiration!

most adorable alice in wonderland themed store window display i’ve ever seen!

there’s a little something for everyone here.

dessert anyone?  gourmet desserts and cakes provided by the kitchen window.

these gorgous gals are karen soto (right), the vision and owner of 34.fourteen and her oldest daughter, taylor (left).

and over in this corner we have… simplewear, making it’s first store debut!  i love that my product is surrounded by the adorable stuffed animals of JanieXY.  and of course, don’t forget the in a card note cards packaged and sitting pretty, peaking at the right corner.  🙂

here’s a pic of the hat i decorated and wore to the party.  i think someone else needs to have an alice in wonderland themed hat party so i can wear this creation one more time.

a special thanks to those of you that came out to the grand opening and showed your love and support for in a card/simplewear!!!

a note-able gift idea

i’ve gotten several etsy orders from brides-to-be for my monogram note card designs. what a great and personal gift idea for bridesmaids!

here is a recent order i just did and actually remembered to take a quick pic of before mailing off.


this etsy customer went with the “art deco-rative” design, which is one of my favorites, for all seven of her bridesmaids.

if you are interested in seeing some of my other designs or would like to purchase these note cards for your bridesmaids, please visit inacard.etsy.com or email me at info@inacard.com

and remember…
we at “in a card” are passionate about written correspondences. what better way to show someone how much you care then taking the time to write them a note. whether it’s a simple thank you or a long over due how’s it going, we hope our designs will motivate you to pick up that pen and send a little love…

all available for purchase at my etsy shop, inacard.etsy.com.

i even have the matching little cupcake onesie/t-shirts available at simplewear.etsy.com.
