Introducing Lavender Field
{Pearl Drop Pendant Crochet Necklace}
If only money was no option I would have so much fun... in many etsy shops for that matter!!! In this shop I don't think I could even choose just one favorite! Victoria, the talented creator behind Lavender Field gives such a modern twist to the ordinary crochet. Here is what she stated in her profile, "I'm forever a learner, and I have an insatiable urge to create, create, create stuff with my hands. After all that's why God gave us hands.... to put them to good and creative use! My style is very unique as I don't follow any trends, but actually make my own. And even though I find inspiration in colors and other things I consider beautiful, my jewelry is 100% a product of my own imagination."

To see lots more, visit Lavender Field. It will be hard picking just one favorite!

UPrinting Business Card Review
Uprinting offers a nice selection of sizes. You can choose from standard, square, slim to even a specialty shape. I chose square business cards since the shape is a little unexpected from the usual standard size. Size measures 2" by 2". Not only do you have size options to pick from, but you are also given paper options... 14pt cardstock gloss, 14pt cardstock matte or 13pt cardstock uncoated. I chose the 14pt cardstock gloss and am very happy with the quality and look overall!
The ordering process was very easy and the customer service is amazing. If there is any problem on their side with colors or design layout, they immediately contact you and offer a solution! I love that they inform you and don't just print without asking if a small change is made. They definitely put their customers first!
A few days ago I received a rolled canvas print from them and was blown away by the quality! The price is affordable as well! I will share more pictures of that as soon as my husband helps me stretch it onto a frame for hanging. Until then, check out all the printing possibilities UPrinting has to offer. I highly recommend their service!

Avoni's Boutique Review
Several of you may remember the adorable Avoni's Boutique that was introduced back in February. Generous designer, Tsasa gave away a pecious headband to one of Touched Creatively's lucky readers. Tsasa was so sweet and even sent my daughter a couple bows (shown above) for hosting her giveaway! Awesome! So I wanted to revisit her shop today and share a few of my thoughts on her pieces since I was able to view them first hand.
First of all, the bows arrived safely packaged in a box. They had plenty of space so they wouldn't be crushed. When my little girl saw them she immediately wanted to wear them! Getting her to stay still to take a picture was a whole different story!

Listed my favorite painting today, "Weathering the Storm." The painting has beautiful texture that is hard to capture in photos and prints. Being a original, it is pretty amazing... painterly with a special meaning.

Introducing Tess Carter {painting}
I recently came across the shop of talented artist, Tess Carter. Her paintings are full of life! I love the vibrant colors and freedom of strokes. You can't just look at one; her little fashionista's draw you in and you can't help but look at more. And another cool thing, you get to purchase the original painting for an affordable price! Awesome!
So hurry on over to Tess's shop, Cozy Little Cave to see more! Have fun!
