Free Shipping Update!!

Hello all! I've updated my website www.giftofgracephotography.com with the new notecards! They are packaged as the others with 5 notecards in a package and retail for $7.00. The nice thing is that there is now Free Shipping with all notecard orders! I'm excited about these new designs (as well as the old ones!) and hope you will find them pleasing as well. Remember that the profits from the sale of these items is being donated to charity.

Hope you are all enjoying the beautiful fall weather and that all of your school-age children are excited to be back to "work" :)

More Notecards

I have been greatly encouraged that the notecards have been selling well at some of the retail stores that I have them in! I'm looking at having another printing done and with the suggestions of others, have considered adding some designs to the available line-up! I'd love to have your input on these and if you have other ideas of verses or wording that goes well with blank notecards. See what you think.

Here are five designs that I plan to package as a variety pack - one of each design to make a package of 5 total.
















































The rest of these will be packaged as the previous note cards have - 5 of the same design together with envelopes.

Beach Moments

Hello all!
We were blessed to have a few days to get away with the kids this summer and chose to go camping at Warren Dunes in Michigan. We had a great time and enjoyed our vacation immensely.
I thought I'd share a few peaceful pictures from the beach. These were taken in the evening when the beach was much quieter and restful.
I hope you all have a wonderful rest of the summer.

Summer's Flying By!



I'm sure the rest of you will agree that summer is simply flying by right now. We've been busy with summer schedules (swim lessons, VBS, the usual) and are looking forward to things slowing down (maybe!?) for this last month before school starts! July is a busy month all the way through, but once we make it through fair week, we should be on our way to taking it a little easy. Right!? :)




The good news is that we have an official Gift of Grace Photography website where you can purchase the notecards online now. There are 20 different designs. For those of you who live near, just drop me a line if you want to purchase some and we'll skip the shipping!








One of my 9-year old's 4-H projects this year was photography. She picked it - really! Without any pressure from me. Anyway - I thought I'd post a shot or two that she's pretty proud of right now - I think I've got an up and coming assistant - what do you think? :)


Anyway - it's been fun to see what she comes up with - we did a LOT of pictures to come up with enough for her poster! She's had fun with the camera and has tried not to get too frustrated (you know how well kids like to take instruction from Mom!).

I hope you all have a fantastic rest of the summer - stay cool!

NOTECARDS ARE HERE!

They're Here! The notecards have been printed and they look great! I'm busy packaging them in sets of 5 with 5 white envelopes. They will come enclosed in clear acid-free plastic to protect the cards and envelopes as well as keep them together nicely.




Here are a couple of pictures of the finished product.

























Have a great day and God's blessings be upon you!

Notecards!

I have finally decided to go ahead with getting a "large" print job of notecards done for me by a local print shop. I'm excited (and nervous) about it, but look forward to seeing the results. I wanted to post a few of them here to let you see what I'm doing with them.

Have a great day!

Oh Beautiful for spacious skies...

...can you fill in the rest of the words? The words of this song and many others are deeply ingrained in our hearts and minds, and bring to mind the many wonderful blessings that God has given us in our country. There are many things we complain about in the current situation, but it's good for us to remember... We have MUCH for which to be thankful!
