Who Hearts Me-Inspiredboutique

Here is another installment of my Who Hearts Me feature! Today I picked at random Inspiredboutique, a lovely little shop that sells fashion-inspired cards! I love the choice of papers and colors that are used in these cards!

The cards are very affordable and would make a great gift for any fashion-y friend you might have!

Who Hearts Me- A New Blog Feature

As of today, my Etsy shop hearts are up to 586! Thank you to all who have hearted my Etsy shop, Emariecreations ! I thought as a fun new feature I would feature some of the shops who have hearted me. I picked one at random today and picked LuvinEveryMinute, a pretty little photography shop on Etsy. This shop has a nice variety of nature prints, plus some very bright and colorful bird prints, which I especially like.

I just love that pink one!

Themed-Thursdays

Last week I participated in a really fun Themed Thursday on Auntie Di's Delights blog. There's still time to enter your Safari themed items for this week's themed Thursday! Please visit the blog for details! I entered the earrings shown at left because they reminded me of zebra stripes.

Shop Spotlight-MouseMarket

I love finding unique little shops on Etsy to feature on my blog, and several days ago I came across a delightful little shop called
MouseMarket which sells some of the most delicious looking miniatures I've seen!

Isn't the detail just amazing? I chose desserts, but MouseMarket also sells adorable main and side dishes. Even if you are not a dollhouse collector, MouseMakrket sells a great variety of jewelry, hair accessories, and more!
Make sure to stop by MouseMarket and check out the other adorable little creations!

Etsy Tip

Use colored paper! There are so many lovely scrapbooking papers out there for a very reasonable price. They are not only great for card-making or scrapbooking, but if they aren't to "busy" you can use them as backgrounds for your Etsy items!
Simple, complimentary colors work great, and give your items some "pop", unlike a plain white background might give your items.

What is your favorite Etsy tip? Feel free to share!
