Kiss My Knits!

Permit me to sing the praises of two fine people/organizations.

The first is . She’s an excellent graphic designer with lots of business and personal experience. She produces practical, elegant designs. Not just web art, either, but in dyeing clothes and yarn, as well as a myriad of other crafty talents. If you want something made beautiful, she’s the beauty queen to go to.

The second is Readystamps.com. They do very professional work, but they’re also a friend to the quirkier among us – look at this portion of their site for details on nifty stuff they can do. They are a division of the United Cerebral Palsy Association in San Diego, and they made some rubber stamps for me. Their responses were timely, their price was good, their customer service was excellent, and most importantly, the stamps look amazing!

I sent them a sheet of ‘s and my designs, and got back a matching rubber sheet.

I’ve cut the stamps apart and mounted them, and they print very cleanly.

This will be some nice value added on the outside of the box for my Jayne hat customers!

Another neat feature is that if you ask them to, Readystamps.com will send you the photo negative used to create the stamps, as well as the molds and other assorted production bits. These are things that you can use to create silkscreens or polymer clay imprints of your designs. I have zero time to do these things, but I’m psyched to have the opportunity. 🙂

A big, big thank you to for her faboo design work. This is so exciting! I’m lucky to have people around me who can do such nifty things. I’m working to learn the little tricks for making these stamps look even better. And I’m enjoying picturing my recipients’ faces when the EXTRA cunning box arrives on each doorstep!

And the thing is, she was!
