Since launching on 14th February 2007, things are going very well. I am established in Passion Flower, Tyldesley and have been selling steadily. I consider Adele and her staff to be good friends, she always makes me feel welcome and is always happy to help, not matter how busy she is, her shop is well worth a visit, if you live in and around Tyldesley, Manchester. I made some much needed cash for the CF Trust and the totals are rising. Natalie Cossins from the CF Trust has been updated with the totals so far. Adele has also agreed to stock 'East of India' products for me, to see how they go, its early days but I have made my mark. My cards do compliment Adele's shop, its very modern and up to date, as are my cards, and 'East of India' products seem relatively happy sat in the window with pride of place.
I love making cards and have been busy recently on some samples for a local business, so I am waiting for some news these are unique in their own right and I was very pleased with the outcome the cards looked the part, the comments were 'they were just what I expected' she was really pleased with them, just knowing that someone somewhere is getting pleasure by displaying their card is enough to make me swell with pride.
Out of the blue recently I made an acquaintance via e-bay a lady by the name of May, who has become a friend, she owns a shop and was willing to help me in anyway she could, aren't people nice!! she is now receipt of some of my cards, she has asked for some more to be sent to her craft shop in Glossop and is happy to sell them for me! Thank you May. She also has bought some stock from a previous dissolved business, so once again thank you May, I am very grateful to you.
I am quite excited as I have been toying with the idea of making unique personalised poems, I have been writing now for many years. I have written for a poetry club and for family and friends, recently I composed three one for a 40th in Spain, one for a Christening and another for a special sisters birthday, who is emigrating to Aussie. So after much deliberation I decided that what have I got to lose, I know that my work is making someone smile, so that makes it worthwhile. I discussed it with Dave and May and a close friend and they were all very positive that I at least give it a go. I have purchased a mapped site poemsmadewithlove.co.uk/ which will be run alongside http://www.cardsmadewithlove.co.uk/ and I am in the process of getting this up and running. I will keep you updated as and when my originals framed poems are up for sale! Watch this space.
