I’m finally doing it…..

July 16, 2010

I have been surrounded by friends who have started their own etsy shop and i’m finally getting my act together and creating one!! I’ve had my own website at nataliecatherinedesign.com for a while…but i’m starting to focus more on my graphic design work and want to offer it on etsy. 
I don’t want to show you everythingggg till it’s all done but here’s a sneak peak…because we all love a little suspense! Working on some of the things i’ll be offering and doing some mini photo-shoots. fun stuff! still tweaking the logo but here it is so far. 

Thanks for visiting my shop! Here I combine two favorite hobbies…Graphic Design and Party Planning! 
I offer DIY Printable Files that are custom created, by me, for you. 

Print, cut, assemble and celebrate! be fabulous within your budget. no matter what your event, small or big, these personal touches will wow your guests and make you the martha stewart of the neighborhood. ;)

Thanks for supporting a mama entrepreneur.
Visit me on my blog at http://www.thebusybudgetingmama.blogspot.com
And my official website at nataliecatherinedesign.com where i showcase my photography and website work.

…………………………………………………………………………..

Here’s a sample of what i’ll be offering… these are perfect for candy bar wrappers or tied up with a ribbon to containers full of candy at a buffet table!! i’ll be sure to share more of the goodies and color schemes soon! i’m loading you up with options so you can get the perfect look you want!

Let me know what you think and be sure to check back for updates on this new adventure. why no throw this in there right before giving birth to my second…right?! ;)  Hope you are having a great day! I have a doctor’s appointment today and am very anxious to see how things are progressing. I had contractions yesterday every ten minutes for almost 2 hours.. they continued the rest of the day but not as time able. so fun. :) thanks for all the prayers and well wishes with this pregnancy..you guys are awesome.

    Woo hoo, good for you! It will be awesome–you have so much talent to share (and sell)! I haven’t been able to get my act together at all. My new saying is going to be “oh well, maybe next year”.

    Oh, and I think you should call yourself a “momterpreneur”. :)
