Tips & techniques on how to sell your handmade crafts easily, confidently & successfully : Stampin Up Season of Style cards - 4 great handmade christmas card ideas for you

I've just finished my series of monthly classes where we created stacks of Christmas cards & tags out of the brilliant pack of Season of Style designer journalling cards - a really versatile and inexpensive product not just intended for scrapbooking & journalling!

Come and take a look at the first four card ideas and feel free to copy if you like them - just leave me a comment in return!

I got 15 cards out of the pack in just under 2 hours which costs just £4.50 (30p per card!) with some bits & pieces left over - the packs can be ordered from my online store using code 132808.

I added some bakers twine, linen thread, frosted finishes embellishments, old olive large rhinestones, burlap, matching rolls of washi tape and season of style designer series paperstack on crumb cake, cherry cobbler & old olive cardstock.

A couple of months ago I asked you about increasing interaction on my page & you gave me advice around engagement and asking questions to my customers building up trust. Since doing this I have noticed that my interaction talked about figures have gone up people are engaging more in my posts and we are building up trust which had resulted in a few more sales!

I started to make jewellery as a hobby in 2010 since then i have gathered various skills, which has caused customers at work, friends and family to say "oooh you should sell your creations". I fumbled around with advertising, a single fair and a couple of car boots. I found i wasn't doing very well and started to get frustrated and looked for help. I immediately found Marketing Creatively and since then everything has changed for my business and I! Using the 50 "cardinal rules" (as i call them) and every single piece of information i can suck from your blog, I am starting to expand my reach ten fold, i am finding networking much easier and much more focused, I am now blogging, which to my surprise is a big hit, and i am also planning to do tutorial videos and contact my local newspapers and such to get a bit of coverage. All in all I can't thank you enough. You have been such a great inspiration and help and I know I couldn't have done it without your support, and the support.
