"Mommy Card" Give Away!

Yesterday I introduced the Mommy Business Cards that my friend Tawny created for my daughters for Valentine's Day. Whether you are a stay-at-home mom, work part-time or full-time these cards are an easy way to share information with other moms you meet. We often meet potential friends at our child's school, his daycare, church or the park. A mommy business card will eliminate the stumbling through your purse as you try to dredge up a scrap of paper and a pen so you can exchange pertinent contact information. With a mommy business card you have a card with just enough information {but not too much} for your new friend to contact you! These cards are also great to use as contact information for babysitters or when you drop off your child at someone's house for a play date. {They also fit perfectly in a Snappy Bag...}

Here's a sample of the cards Tawny created:

Birdies...

Flowers...

Chevron in Yellow...

And here's where you come in...

Mommy {Business} Cards...

Several years ago I was introduced to the idea of Mommy "Business" Cards by my daughter-in-law. I loved the idea from the get-go! Whether you are a stay-at-home mom, work part-time or full-time it's an easy way to share information with other moms you meet. We often encounter potential friends at our child's school, his daycare, church or the park.  A mommy business card will eliminate the stumbling through your purse as you try to dredge up a scrap of paper and a pen so you can exchange pertinent contact information. With a mommy business card you have a card with just enough information {but not too much} for your new friend to contact you! These cards are also great to use as contact information for babysitters or when you drop off your child at someone's house for a play date. Keeping one in your diaper bag might prevent it from getting lost. I wish I had heard of these when my kids were young!

Anyway, a few weeks ago when I made my Snappy Bag, I realized it was the perfect size for my business cards --

-- which got me thinking. Valentine's Day was fast approaching and I wanted to give my daughters a special Valentine. I could have designed the cards myself, but I decided to bow to one with more experience. I contacted my friend Tawny who specializes in graphic arts. She whipped up some Mommy Cards for all my daughters. I loved the fresh, appealing designs she created. I paired the Mommy Cards with some fabric and got to work on some Snappy Bags that would compliment the cards...

Here's a sample of the cards Tawny created:

Birdies...

Flowers...

Chevron in Yellow...

And here's where you come in...

Tomorrow I will announce a Give Away for a set of custom Mommy Cards from Tawny. The winner will choose a design and a custom PDF will be sent directly to her. Then the lucky winner can use the PDF to print the custom cards.
