Cards and Papercraft Monday weekly thread 12/18 November 2018

Showcase

Dear All

A place to show all papercrafts and card making projects and items you have in your shops that come under the Papercraft theme.

If you have time we are all happy to be stumbled, tweeted, facebook liked, blogged to your heart’s content.

Most are happy to be pinned too, but they will say in their post if not.

Buyers if you don’t see what you are looking for, please ask.

This weeks theme is (you’ll never guess) ‘Christmas’ - thought we would roll with this for another week!!!

But if you haven’t anything that fits the bill, please list anything, your favourite, latest make, all to make a busy thread.

Good luck everyone

Morning Carol and everyone :slight_smile:

Good morning everybody. I hope it’s a brighter morning where you are than here on the west coast of the Scottish Highlands, which spends most of it’s time under a cloud. But at least it’s dry for a change!

I have two special Christmas cards to share, both just listed yesterday. Here’s the first, an A5 high quality reproduction from my original watercolour painting and drawing with watercolour pencils, a real young Highland stag in a real local landscape :slight_smile: Available singly or in packs of 4, with a Christmas greeting inside:

And here’s the second, a 6" square card of the ever popular robin, singing at the top of his voice… from my original illustration in watercolour pencils and Indian ink. The greeting inside reads “Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year”

Available singly or in packs of 4:

Morning :slightly_smiling_face:

Thanks for asking Carol, for my Christmas Advent on Instagram I post one little Christmas pic each day from Dec 1st to the 24th. This year my theme is ‘Children’s Christmas Fancy Dress’, so I’ve had great fun thinking of Christmas costumes, they’re all drawn, painted and ready to photograph (I didn’t get chance yesterday as the clouds appeared). Sunny at the moment so I shall be taking pics today with a bit a luck.

Here’s mine for today;

Hello All

I don’t have many Christmas cards that I haven’t already shown here but just wanted to say ‘hi’ and hope everyone is having good views etc! As usual many lovely creations on this thread…I’ll post one pop up card that I don’t think I’ve already showcased.

Also, may I ask whether you all have Paypal and Stripe or just Paypal or just Stripe set up for your shops? When I joined Folksy I was encouraged to set up a Stripe account and did not bother with a Paypal one…I’ve used Stripe elsewhere and have never had customer issues with it. Today I had my first ‘near sale’ but because I’m not set up for Paypal I think this put the customer off. Do you have a take on having two or one payment options or finding one to be more popular than another? Thanks. x
