My first online sale ... and spending more money than I make on craft supplies!

Putting myself out there online and in the real world is starting to pay off! Custom cards, bulk orders and wait for it....my first online sale! Yahoo! It wasn't even someone that I knew - a complete stranger bought something that I created! This sale even lent itself to a dance around the loungeroom!

Here is a custom card order that I have been working on - it is a Frida Kahlo inspired mixed media creation.

Over the weekend my friend, fellow crafter and constant source of inspiration Liv and I went to the Picture 2 Page scrapbooking and papercraft show in Pakenham. We were totally inspired by all of the creations and enjoyed chatting with the lovely Flourish with a Bling girls. Beautiful supplies (that were too good to resist!) and lots of inspiration - which I will put into action later on in the week when I have a day off and then on Friday at scrapping with my girls. I'll be sure to post more photos soon.

If you want to join the stampede to buy Cards by Lauren online (well I have sold one!) make sure that you visit www.madeit.com.au/CardsbyLauren or if you are after a custom card design you can email me at cardsbylauren@gmail.com

Take care - L x
