Making Earring Cards


Today I want to give an inside look at how I put together my new earring cards for orders.

I start by gathering everything I need:

-Artist Trading Cards (white)
-Stamps (thank you circle seal, one of a kind art, letters for my initials)
-Acid Free stamping pigment (turquoise)
-Multi-hole punch












The first thing I do is measure 1 inch below the top of the card and draw a line with a pencil across the paper.


















Then, I find the middle of the line and mark it.


















Next, I mark where the holes will be punched, an inch apart.  Half an inch from each side of the middle mark.


















Punch the earring holes using the smallest setting on the multi-hole punch.


















Now it's time to stamp on the card.  First I stamp the "Thank you" seal on the front of the card.  I don't take measurements or anything, just eye ball it.



















Then, I stamp the back of the card with the "one of a kind art" seal.



















I like to sign the back with letter stamps using my initials.



















Next, to add my company logo to the card, I print it on a sticky paper, (At this point I use shipping label paper, but in the future I will print it directly on the card) and cut them out.














All that's left is to stick the logo on and erase the pencil lines.


















There you have it! How I make my custom earring cards!  I am currently in the process of designing new earring cards.  My plan is to have them professionally made with thicker card stock, but I am not having much success at the moment.  In the meantime these are quick and easy to make, and give a bit of a personal touch to the product.

All About Wire

Image
Wire jewelry has been around for a long time.  It is an ancient craft dating back to the time of the Egyptian pyramids, and probably even before then. When I first began making jewelry I only worked with beads and cord.  I wanted to learn to work with wire, but was too afraid I wouldn't be good at it.  I didn't know where to start, I knew nothing about craft wire. Wire can be intimidating, but it's really not as complicated as it seems. The goal of this guide is to provide you with the information I didn't have access to when I first began my jewelry making journey. Hardness The hardness of the wire you are working with is very important.  It measures how flexable/brittle the wire is and what you should use it for. Dead Soft: Easy to bend into organic shapes (coils, spirals, etc) MUST be work hardened.  This is difficult and may not always work. Do not use for structural sections of your jewelry Half Hard: Soft enough to bend, yet h

Quick Craft: Decoupage Multi-Hole Punch

Image
Decoupage is the art of covering objects decoratively with paper using glue and paint. It's a great way to add a little life to an old piece of furniture, or give a unique look to a boring, worn out tool. I love my multi-hole punch.  I use it all the time.  So much in fact that the rubber handle was beginning to look a little disgusting...  I decided it was time for an update. Decoupage is also great for covering nasty, hard-to-get-off, sticky residue.  I could have also chosen to just paint it and add a layer of Mod Podge over it to seal it, but I wanted the texture of the tissue paper. Materials I used: Craft paint Mod Podge Paint brushes Tissue paper streamer left over from a birthday party 3 years ago. I added two coats of paint to the areas I wanted to cover. After the paint was dry, I brushed on a layer of Mod Podge to the first handle. While the Mod Podge was still wet, I immediately b
