welcome to in a card's blog...

i know that "cute" is not a word typically used to describe good design, but in my world, it is. if it's your first reaction to say, "aww... how cute!" then it must be just that! "C-U-T-E." and i'm talking about so incredibly, ridiculously cute that the most masculine of men will even say those three words without thinking twice about it.

and so that is what i hope to share with you on my blog...

a combination of really unique ideas, simple thoughts that come randomly into my mind, along with "cute" designs that i've designed or come across.

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.

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!
