Homemade Goodies and Gifites

by 10 Comments

I am not sure about you but I love to give AND receive handmade gifts.  There is a part of yourself that gets permanently placed into a handmade gift for a loved one.  Whether it be the tissue paper rose your second grader gives you or a time consuming crocheted blanket from your mother (thanks Mom!) or a plate of cookies from a thoughtful neighbor.  These tokens of ourselves and our time leave lasting impacts on those we gift to. Somehow it means more to get handcrafted goods.

Now – I do NOT want to shame or guilt those out there that don’t give or make handcrafted goods because you can totally be like me and bring a plate of store bought treats to parties and tell people you made them without guilt.  Seriously, you have permission.  Totally not a big deal.  In fact!  Go a step further and throw one of these stamps on a blank tag and make people truly believe that you made them!

My point is – go make something!  I tried to get a little range in this new stamp collection and I hope there is something for every hand made gift giver out there.

Here are some of the tags, cards and even wrapping paper I whipped together in the last week and have plans for many more.

I hope to hear from you all and that you tell me which speak most to your CREATIVE gift giving self!  I hope something stands out to you and that you make great use of it in your efforts to give a piece of yourself by making handcrafted items for your loved ones…

(or store bought with a handmade card of deceit like me!)

 

!!!Giveaway TIME!!!

I would LOVE to give away a stamp set to some of you but will need your participation in order to do so! 

Please comment below and share your email address if you would like to win.  Tell me which stamp set you like best by heading over to the Spellbinders “Coming Soon” section and picking out a  set that speaks to your creative life and tell me why and how you intend to use it.  Winners will be emailed at the end of January!

 

OK Dudes, that is all for me for now.  I should probably go make more cute tags with the stamps I haven’t featured yet but I have got hungry kids and an antsy husband on his day off and we are heading to the beach for a picnic lunch!  Check out the Spellbinders website for all of the stamps!

Now, do that now please.  Hurry.  Bye.

 

Peace!

xoxo,

Stephanie

    Hi Stephanie. I am a new to your blog. I found my way to you via Spellbinders. I love to make hand made items but sometimes time does not allow that to happen…. I too have shown up with store purchased products. Adding a lovely hand made tag can make it special. I love your new designs. I would be hard to just pick up one. My favorite is One of a Kind. Thanks for the chance.

    I love all those sets – absolutely gorgeous! But my favourites are the sew handmade and the knit handmade. I am a knitter and have friends who are knitters, so I would use it for birthday cards for them. I am also working on knitting sweaters for my niece and nephew and would include a cute card in the package for each of them using that stamp. Thanks for designing so many beautiful stamps! skowbel(at)shaw(dot)ca

    Stephanie is so kind and wonderful to work with. She is honest about what will work and what won't, and creates beautiful artwork. My first piece was exactly what I had hoped, no revisions or changes required at all. I can't wait to have the tattoo done and I can't wait to see my next completed piece!! Thank you again Stephanie!

  • Jay

    I'll start by saying I'm not the easiest customer. I'm very particular about what I like and how I want things done. I fell in love with Stephanie's work from the moment I saw it and knew I'd be getting a custom piece done. When I placed my order I had a vision in my head and Stephanie delivered exactly what I wanted! She was very open to any changes I wanted and thoughtful in her revisions. She was also very kind and patient. I am beyond satisfied with her services and my piece.

  • Maggie

    Thank you again for a beautiful second tattoo design. I knew what I wanted to be reflected in it, but in no way had I thought hat someone could put them together so beautifully!! Can't wait to get this in ink 💕 Stephanie keeps you updated through the entire process and is attentive to any requests and feedback. Highly recommend her for your tattoo design !!☺️

  • Victoria Jones

    Very, very cool. Super detailed and so much to look at. She did a great job creating these.

  • Dawn Johnson

    Ideas that came to life on paper. I have been brainstorming ideas for some time now about my next tattoo. Stephanie was able to make all my ideas come perfectly out into this art piece that I was dreaming about. Its exactly what I had in mind! She was such a great listener and I love that she was excited to get it started. Thank you so much Stephanie for this beautiful piece that means SO much to me. I can't wait to get it in ink! I am absolutely positive I will be coming back for another in the future! LOVE IT!!! I will send pics once I get it down on skin. ;)

    Stephanie was wonderful to work with! She was receptive with all of my thoughts, and was really able to get into my head and create something more beautiful than I imagined. I'm blown away with the finished product- definitely an Etsy best!!!!!

  • K.M.

    I had a custom tattoo design drawn by Stephanie to incorporate a number of important ideas into one design. It came out better than I could have ever imagined. Stephanie is an amazing artist and is very patient. She made every little change I requested until I was completely satisfied with the design. I can't wait to get my beautiful tattoo! I will definitely be back if I ever need another design.

  • Katie Duntley

    I came to Stephanie with a tattoo idea that was a bit different from the floral designs I saw on most of her listings. But she was incredibly open and supportive of new ideas and it was an absolute pleasure to work with her! She constantly kept me updated as she progressed on the drawing, and she was very patient and wiling to make big and small changes as I saw them. She was easy to communicate with and very prompt with responses to questions and revisions. I am so incredibly happy with the final product, it came out even better than I envisioned it! Her artwork is of the highest caliber and I will definitely be back if I decide to get more tattoos!

  • Charlotte M

    I am so pleased with my design. I am not very good at describing things and Stephanie was awesome about working with me. She completed my design very quickly. I cannot wait to get this newest tattoo!!

  • Lissa EuDaly

    Stephanie does amazing and beautiful work, and she couldn't be more wonderful to work with. She listens and is able to translate what she hears from you into art you will truly love!

  • Lissa EuDaly

    Stephanie, the prints arrived safe and sound inside a plastic bag in a torrential down poor! they're even more beautiful in person. Thank you! xo

  • Lisa Hankins

    There are no words to describe Stephanie and her art. She is simply amazing. I contacted her to do a piece for me for a tattoo, and although she indicated what I wanted was a bit "outside of the box", she delivered 110% and more. She was open to my ideas & even threw in her own, which made my piece so much better. She has an eye & a talent that's indescribable. I'm so happy I found her. I cannot wait to show her my tattoo when it's finished. :) The turn around time is surprisingly quick for such a detailed, well-thought out piece. Stephanie, THANK YOU.

  • Rachel

    There is not enough amazing things to say about Stephanie. I was on a time constraint and she was so accommodating. She was so helpful on my ideas to change some things around. The final piece was AMAZING and BEAUTIFUL!!!! If I need another design I am definitely having Stephanie do it for me again!!! You will not be disappointed at all. She is in constant communication to make sure you are ok with her drafts. So excited to get my tattoo done!!. Thank you Stephanie

  • Angie

    Stephanie exceeded my expectations and was a pleasure to work with! I had a very specific tattoo idea in mind and she helped bring my vision to life. I loved, loved Stephanie's communication and responsiveness throughout the process! She over-communicated and was very good about answering my questions in a timely manner and I ask a lot of questions lol! She was also a good listener, extremely patient, and offered great ideas and feedback when I needed it, all of which helped me to think through my vision. Tattoos are extremely meaningful and last a lifetime so it's important to fall in love with your design, and I was certainly able to do this with Stephanie's work! I cannot wait to get Stephanie's beautiful design tattooed in the near future, I will definitely be using Stephanie again for new potential designs!!!

  • Angie

  • Brockit

    after months of looking for ideas and artists for a new tattoo piece, I was lucky to find Stephanie. she was immediately responsive and we worked together to finalize a custom design literally over a weekend. she took my photos and notes, worked them into sketches and nailed it with her fist attempt. months of research finalized in one friendly, efficient, artistic swoop. highly recommended indeed.

  • Alyssa Cannon

    Loved my custom drawing! Stephanie is amazing! She designed exactly what I was looking for 😃😃😃

  • Ruth Pingiaro

    I have long been wanting my first tattoo but was waiting for the perfect idea. Then I found Stephanie online. I was instantly drawn and fell in love with her out of this world feather designs and knew straight away she was the artist I wanted to design my first tattoo. I contacted her with some of my key elements and had exceptionally quick and constant responses. She took a jumbled idea in my head and made the most amazing meaninful image that I am so in love with. Process very quick, even though there was a wait list and worked with me every step of the way. Stand out artist, professional, and end product amazing. I would highly recommend her as she manages to incorporate all ideas into a flowing piece.

  • Anna Sharkova

  • Steve Beck

    Amazing artist!!! I love it! Thanks for the amazing Koi :)

  • When I look at my custom design it still takes my breath away! Let me start off by saying that Stephanie is amazing in every way imaginable. I fell in love with her work when my friend had a design made last year. I finally decided to commission her right before she did a big move. In all the life changes and shuffle, she forgot about my design. I admit I did too. When I contacted her to see if she was settled in she was so beside herself she had forgotten! I was in no way upset but she was amazing. She worked closely and patiently with me to design exactly what I wanted. Although I just love her creative ideas so I let her run with most of it. She created a masterpiece and I CANNOT wait to get it forever on my body! She was so apologetic and even reimbursed my deposit! She is such a professional!

  • Chloe Thomas

    Absolutely thrilled with my design! It is everything I imagined and more. Stephanie is a pleasure to work with, listens to ideas and produces stunning pieces. I am so so happy this piece will be on my body :) Very smooth transaction - HAPPY HAPPY!

  • D. Fogliatti

    I'm so excited to get this tattoo! Stephanie captured exactly the elements I described to her and she created a truly custom, personal work of art. She was responsive, honest about her process, set expectations, solicited feedback at various points, and the result is everything I hoped for. I'm looking forward to finding the right tattoo artist so that I can have this as a permanent work of art I can always display. Thank you, Stephanie! Pictures of the final tattoo to come!

  • Julianna Fusco

    Let me start off with that Stephanie is INCREDIBLE. She truly has the customer's best interest at heart, and works with you to create a design that you love and one that will look good!! She kept in touch with me throughout all steps of the process, always making sure I would get the perfect design- and I did! I'm absolutely obsessed with this design and cannot wait to put it on my skin, it's better than I could have imagined, she really took my kinda weird request and made it beautiful. Couldn't be happier!

  • Bethany Monciavaiz

    She is a astounding artist! Love, love my design.

  • Dion Navarro

    So the first thing is that my actual design is not the one that will appear next to this review, so keep this in mind when reading. Stephaine was brilliant to deal with, there was an open line of communication and update, she never took offence to requested amends, and gave enough of a steer and opinion on the overall look and feel without taking over of making me feel in any way the piece wasn't entirely mine. it is clear from dealing with Stephaine and looking at her work that more then just a business this really is a labor of love and something she cares about which makes it all the more special for customers. I would certainly recommend the services of Stephanie Low Designs.

  • Peach Bird

    I'd been admiring Stephanie's work for almost a year before I was able to snag a spot on her waitlist. My design has a few unconventional things in it, the cupcake for one, and lots of big round objects but she didn't shy away from the challenge; in fact, she stepped up and knocked it out of the park. I feel like I changed things a thousand times, but she was very kind and nothing but professional, she replied quickly even though there is a 6 hour time difference between us. Stephanie was wonderful to work with and my tattoo design is everything that I imagined it to be. I cannot wait to have it put on my skin. Thank you so much, Stephanie!!
