Welcome to my new blog!
Let me introduce myself...
My name is Jackie and I take both nothing and everything seriously. Sometimes I refer to myself as a bee, since I tend to buzz around doing a million things at once. While a lot of people define relaxation as keeping activities to a minimal, I define relaxation as keeping busy. Weird, I know. I was born and raised on Long Island, New York. If you have never been to the Big Apple, you must. There is nothing else in the world quite like it, and the people aren't half as mean as they're made out to be.
Although I am not a graphic designer, or print specialist by trade, I happen to love all things creative. Growing up I always hand-wrote 'thank you' notes, love letters, or "hello" notes. I find it's a dying habit. Today people seem to be too busy to put pen to paper, and would rather put finger to keyboard. Well, I think that's a sad, sad thing. I'm guessing, if people are like me, that the majority of their mail consists of bills, bills, junk and more bills. It's funny because if I ever get something that does not look like a bill, I get this little feeling in my tummy that maybe somebody thought of me for a moment in their day, and due to that thought, they actually snail mailed me!! Amazing concept. Pretty exciting too, getting something in the snail mail as opposed to e-mail.
Anyway, this train of thought is what lead me to begin creating my own line of paper products. You name it, I'll make it; stationary, invitations, labels, cards, posters, whatever. I believe that sending somebody a cute little note is worth its weight in gold. Moving forward I will be posting my little do-dads as I make them, feel free to take a look. If you want something made, just send me an e-mail at believenotes@yahoo.com.
