Etsy Front Page, Feature on Scrapscene.com and few more Amy Butler Post It Note Holders..

So yesterday I was just casually checking the stats of my shop at around 1:15PM on majaba.org now craftcult.com ( a site to check Etsy shop and item hearts ) and saw that I had 10 new shop hearts in just one minute so immediately I knew something big had happened. I checked the item hearts and found that the Amy Butler Danmask Post It Holder that I had listed just sometime back had 132 hits.. I knew either someone has put me in Treasury or something but then I never had so many hits even after being featured in a Treasury.. I was wondering and went on Etsy homepage and what I see is that the Danmask Post It Holder is on the Front Page of Etsy. I was over the top and could not believe my eyes!!! I was doing a happy dance :) The page was curated by Admin based on Recently listed items. Here are some screenshots of it :)

Another good thing that happened 2 days back was when I had a Flickr Mail from Angie from Scrapscene.com who wrote to me that she wanted to feature Zebra Print Post It Holder ( the one that I shared with you in the last post ) in one of the articles that she is doing on Scrapbooking Trends. You can checkout the article and other scrapbooking trends on her website at ScrapScene.com.

Today I share with you few Amy Butler Post It Holders available in shop in celebration of making it to Front Page on Etsy :)

Animal Print Post It Note Holders

The Safari themed Animal Print Post It Holders are new addition to my Etsy Shop -

Owls, Birds and more.. Post It Note Holders..

These are the first in the series. I stamped the owl with black ink in a circle and inked the edges around it.

Even though the above owl did look good, something was missing. So I thought to try the embossing after a very long time. This time I stamped the image with pigment ink and sprinkled superfine black embossing powder over it and embossed it with the heat gun. This was the exact look I was going for - much more vibrant and the shiney effect gives the owl just the right edge. The details are not too noticable in these pictures but it looks much more live in real life. Now next step is to try the owls in different colors with different patterns :) More to come in OWL series..


Next are the Birds - one of my favorites and most popular after owls :) I can never have enough of these funky birds..


More birds with outline..



These and many more beautiful Post It note holders are available in my shop.

Featured in Etsy Treasury..

I found this calendar in one more treasury this morning. Such an eye-catching collection. Made my day!!

Another from 2 days back -


I was very pleasantly surprised to find my calendar featured in this lovely treasury - Holiday Cheer. I was just browsing through the treasury lists to check the number & expiry time to see if I can curate one myself & came across the little yellow star on the list which means your listing has been featured in this treasury :) Its always nice to find unexpected surprises :)

I curated my first Treasury - Be JOLLY

Wohoo.. I am so excited I got a spot in a Treasury West and curated a red and green Treasury called "Be JOLLY".
Show me some love :) This is my first curated Treasury. Here is the link -
Be JOLLY

It will stay alive till Monday 4:01 AM November 24.

It is so much fun to feature other talented artist's items on Treasury. I will definitely grab another one whenever I get a chance.

I use Firefox browser and wasn't sure how to take Full Screen shot as the end was getting chopped out with regular F11 screenshot command. I found a cool plug-in called "Fire Shot". It captures entire page and then you can copy/email/upload the page as per your liking. Thought to share it with you all :)

Post It Note Holders

I made couple of Post It Holders in past few days. If you are looking for little somethings for teachers, co-workers, friends or stocking stuffer, these little gems will make perfect gifts. I sold many of these but there is still a great variety available in my shop. I keep adding new designs frequently and if you don't see something but like the idea, I can always take special order :)
