Card Creations by HaYee

Hello,   
   
My name is HaYee, and I am happy that you have stopped by my store! I have always dabbled in various forms of crafts and creating “goods.” For instance, I have sewn pieces of clothing and made curtains for our home, painted miniature ceramic houses as gifts, baked different kinds of desserts to share with friends and family, cross-stitched and embroidered items, and completed felt kits, which resulted in a snowman chef with a wooden spoon in the apron pocket. It was about 18 inches tall and so adorable!

I thoroughly enjoy creating things with my hands and seeing the receiver’s face light up when they see my work. For me, their reaction is rewarding, and makes the hours of work worthwhile.  

One of my earliest and fondest childhood memories was making clothes for my barbie dolls. Mom was a seamstress and she sewed clothes at home when I was in 7th grade. There were always discarded scraps of fabric from the clothes Mom worked on. I recall small scraps of burgundy velvet, which I used to make evening gowns for my barbie dolls. These evening gowns were not elaborate by any means, but my dolls were dressed very elegantly. Their velvet gowns had spaghetti straps and a mid-thigh high cut on the side of their gown.  
    
Through the years, I have explored various kinds of crafts. However, I realize that my true passion for the past 20+ years has been paper crafting. I find it rewarding to finish a scrapbook page or a greeting card for a friend or family.     

I primarily use rubber stamps to create my cards along with embellishments or ribbon to give the card dimension. The stamped images or sentiments on my cards are created by rubber stamps. The images have been hand-stamped, colored by hand, and assembled to the card.
    
I pride myself on using supplies that are made in the United States whenever possible. That is why I was delighted when I came across goimagine.com. It has become much more difficult to purchase goods made in the United States. Therefore, I am excited to be part of goimagine’s mission of providing a venue for handmade goods made in the United States to consumers.  
    
I take great pride in my work and use the utmost care/attention when creating my cards. If the card does not look the way I want it to, I set it aside for later. Often, by setting a card aside, my final card design is much improved over the original idea that I had.  
    
Aside from the current card selections, I would love to create a custom card for that someone special based on input that you provide to me. Bear in mind that custom, handmade work may take more time to complete. During the design process, I would maintain contact with you for feedback and updates.  

Due to the nature of handmade work, each piece is unique and the background of the card may vary slightly depending on what supplies I have available. I will do my best to create a card that is closest to what is shown in my store. I appreciate your understanding of this.
    
Thank you for coming and I hope you enjoy my work. I look forward to sharing my card creations with you and yours. Feel free to ask questions and I will do my best to fulfill your request.    

Take care and have an amazing day! ❤️

HaYee
