After finding an incredible designer for my blog/personal business card, I knew that I needed a solution to incorporate both my personal card and our restaurant business card for Alt Summit. After all, I attended the conference for both personal reasons and for our restaurant and didn't want to favor one over the other. The solution I came up with was to combine both cards in a Kraft Paper envelope (purchased here) and find an adorable stamp to use so that I could customize the envelope in order to stay consistent with both my personal card and our restaurant card. (whoa. run on sentence much?)
I found Trial by Cupcakes on Etsy and knew they could help me accomplish my goal. I was thrilled with their product and decided to order a stamp. Laura, of Trial by Cupcakes, was so helpful and helped me brainstorm the best design for my stamp. She not only gave valuable input, but put a rush on my order and got the stamp to me just in time for Alt Summit, despite my last minute order.
The card combination was a hit (pats self on back) and was even featured on Kirtsy's feature on The Business Cards of Alt. Holler!
Lucky for you, Laura has generously agreed to host a giveaway for your very own stamp! The stamp I purchased for my cards is actually an address stamp (example below from Laura's Etsy Site), so you can either do an address stamp, or simply a name stamp (like mine).
Or perhaps you'd rather have a stamp with your name, web site and email?
In order to enter the giveaway, please leave a comment on this post AND like my facebook page. For extra entries, feel free to blog, tweet or post on facebook about the contest. Just send me a link to your post(s) and I'll add an entry for you.
You must enter by Tuesday, January 31. The winner will be announced on February 1st.
These stamps are so well done and easy to use! They would make an incredible gift for your favorite letter writer (or keep it for yourself. I promise I won't tell). Please be sure to visit Laura's Etsy shop to check out her other darling items. I love the wedding maps! Such a clever idea.
Good luck!
