WELCOME TO MY NEWS BLOG!

WELCOME! 

Just a litte note that I have been taking some time off from the craft fairs, festivals and farmers markets with the downturn in the economy.  I will be registering for a limited number of Christmas craft fairs this year.  Check out my Craft Fairs, Festivals and Farmers Markets section for updates on the craft fairs that I will be attending.  I am still adding new art and art products to my website.

Recent prints of Sechelt have been posted in the prints section and I have made some new bookmarks and clipart frames from local sites.  2012 Printable Calendars are now here! Check out the blog below for more news! 

I also sell some of my products on the Etsy website for homemade products.  My webpage is http://sjensenphoto.etsy.com.  Note, not all the products are on my Etsy website due to the difficulty of shipping products such as glass and are only available locally. 

Custom orders are always welcome and if you live locally, I am more than happy to meet you for an order.

I was inspired when I was requested to make some wonderful table numbers, table seating cards and small gifts for the guests for a wedding in Peru (see blog below) to start creating some new products especially for weddings.  I always love being creative so I have been currently designing products for weddings and special occassions such as wedding invitations, table numbers, table cards, thank you cards, bookmarks, luggage tags, etc. with new art made with damask and other creative designs. I have several designs almost complete and plan to showcase them shortly.  Keep posted! 

Cheers!

I completed an order of 620 mini canvas magnets with 8 different images of La Boca, Buenos Aires, Argentina. They were going to be given to guests as gifts while they were on a trip in Buenos Aires. I was able to create and design new magnets that would be distributed to over 155 guests. Very exciting project! Here's a sample of one of them below.

Recently I was requested to make some wedding table numbers, table guest cards and guest gifts for a wedding that was occuring in Peru. The theme of the products were a variety of images from my travels from Peru which I incorporated into each product. The end result was fantastic and the table looked great and the guests loved their personalized gifts. Here is a sample of some of the products I made. I would love to create some new and wonderful designs for your wedding!
