Kard Kreations

My new friend Jocelyn of Kard Kreations makes the cutest greeting cards. Check out her shop:
I met Jocelyn on Etsy, where she is a member of Etsy Greetings. I love the paper she uses - such fun patterns and colors, who wouldn’t feel special receiving one of her cards in the mail?
New earrings on etsy
Posted by Leah on Jun 5, 2008
I just listed these two pairs of earrings in my etsy shop. They are made from some sterling silver findings I had in my stash, handmade fine silver head pins, and Swarovski crystal beads. I think they are fun, pretty colors, and they are very lightweight and comfortable to wear.

Like Swarovski pearls?
Posted by Leah on Apr 10, 2008
I have a bunch for sale in my etsy shop!
Swarovski pearls are actually Swarovski crystal with a beautiful pearl coating. They are some of the nicest faux pearls I’ve seen, but I don’t bought way more than I’ll be able to use up so I’m selling off all the extras.
They would be great strung into a necklace for Mother’s Day….

Have you seen the new website etsyfame.com? Created by Annie Howes from the Fabulous Artistic Moms (FAM) of Etsy team, it features loads of beautiful handmade items by FAM members. My jewelry is there, along with purses, baby clothes, photographs, illustrations, even some very tempting sweet treats. The site is beautifully designed too, and you can browse the various shops by clicking on the names in the left-hand column. I’m really excited about this site and plan to use it when I’m looking for nice handmade gifts.
100 Etsy Artists
Posted by Leah on Mar 22, 2008
I was catching up on etsy news and found a link to this great article which lists 100 visual artists on etsy. Of course these are personal favorites of the author, so there are many, many talented artists not represented here, and there is definitely a preference for the style that the author prefers which may or may not be what you prefer, but I enjoyed looking through the list and discovered some artists I’d never seen before.
If I have some free time, maybe I’ll compile a list of some of my favorite craft artists on etsy someday….
