I LOVE Your Website!

I recently found your website, "The Artful Crafter" and enjoy many of the articles on scrapbooking and sewing.

What I really enjoy, however, is your personal story about starting crafty businesses and having a husband who can create the website and do the technical stuff.

I laughed because your story sounds similar to mine. I am a stay at home mom and I'm always working on crafts, creative projects, etc ... while my husband helps with the technical stuff. :)

I used to make designer photo cards for my children's birth announcements and birthday cards. So, when family and friends would pay compliments on my card, I thought they were just being nice.

But once they started giving me money to make cards for them, a business was born. I never thought I could make money just by being a creative mom! But I have and still do.

Since starting that first successful photo card business, I have since created 2 popular ebooks that teach other moms how to make crafty items for fun and profit.

In short, I just wanted to write and say kudos on a creating a resourceful website. I love seeing "our type" of women helping others improve their skills and inspire them to unleash their creativity.

I look forward to watching your website blossom into bigger and brighter areas - Keep up the great work, Eileen!

Warm wishes,
