Here is a little preview of what I have been working on the past few days to sell in my shop on Etsy or elsewhere... I built myself a little light box to improve the quality of the photographs, but I still have a lot to learn. I have been brainstorming trying to come up with a creative name, but am not excited about anything I have come up with just yet. So if you have any ideas about what you see here or my design aesthetic please feel free to share!!

I have many more cards "stockpiled" to put up for sale as soon as I figure out a business name. And a new blog to follow too focusing on all my crafting projects!
hmmm...the name thing is tricky. I ended up with a rather generic name for my shop (referencing our apt number) so that if I decided in the future to change the direction or type of product to sell, the shop name could accommodate that. You could name your shop something like "Miss Fleur" - which is a play on your nickname (missy) and fleur is french for flower (referencing the paper flowers you're making?). Or reverse it for something more abstract like "Fleurmis" - sounds frenchy, fancy, fun, and playful - and also abstract enough if you decide to switch gears in your shop later. OK, I'm out of ideas!
