What’s your store name and how long have you been an Etsymom?
My Etsy store is called Inglish Paper Design (http://inglishrea.etsy.com/), and I've been an Etsymom around 2 months or so.
How did you get started as an artist?
Ever since I can remember, I've always loved creating things... Whether it was doing crafts in school, or my first scrapbook as a pre-teen, there was just something about creating that really made me happy. The more I could learn, the better! :)
I started making cards about 6 years ago because I was tired of going to stores and seeing cards that really just didn't have the colors I wanted, or the designs weren't really my style, not to mention the price was crazy.
What sets you apart from other people making similar items?
I am very meticulous in my approach to making cards, and wouldn't ever sell something that wasn't put together with the utmost care and attention to detail. I also use color combos and designs are always fresh and fun.
What’s your favorite valentine’s item in your store?
My giveaway item, of course! *smiles*
Give us one tip on how you managed to create/sell/manage your store and at the same time be a busy mom?
I'm a night person by nature, so usually when everyone else has gone to bed for the night, I've gotten my second wind and am down in my studio crafting the night away, assembling packages and updating my store. LOL :)
Heather will be giving away her 10(Ten) 4 1/4” square Valentine's cards w/ envelopes.
