Small Business Saturday (and coupon!)

Hello and Happy Thanksgiving! I hope each of you have plans to spend the holiday with loved ones and eat lots of delicious food. I'll be up on Ohio with my husband's side of the family, where we'll have a full house of 30 or so people!

Everyone knows about Black Friday following on the heels of Thanksgiving, but do you also know about Small Business Saturday? It is a day to support your small local businesses, in contrast to the big box stores. I'll be participating in Small Business Saturday this weekend by offering a coupon for my Etsy shop.

By using coupon code SBS14, you will receive 15% off your entire purchase now through Saturday, November 29th! I have Christmas cards, cute holiday gift tags, and cards for all occasions.

Have a great weekend!

Holly Bough Card

I am participating in a holiday craft fair next weekend with some talented local crafters, so I am definitely getting in the Christmas mood! Here is one of the designs I will be offering.

 

I've had the idea for this rumbling around in my head for a while now, so it was fun to finally see it come together. 

I die cut the holly leaves from a textured green card stock. The red button is actually sewn to the card front with baker's twine and tied in a loopy bow. The sentiment I found in the Michael's $1 bin several years ago!
