Why Creative Moments?

As the idea of selling cards initially formed in my mind, I kept asking myself why someone would order my cards when they could go across the street and buy a card on demand at the local drug store. Mine do have the home-made advantage, but is that really enough? I determined to add an incentive to buy my cards. I offer something that the store across the street simply cannot offer. You can personalize the cards you buy! If your boy is graduating, and you think my dreamy birthday card would work, if only it were blue instead of purple, just let me know, and it's done! I can even change the wording! You can tweak my cards however you would like at no extra cost! My only request is an extra week. I may need to brainstorm or buy more supplies for your card. So, as you look at my cards, feel free to email me about changes you would like. Send your requests to: RachelBalint@yahoo.com. I look forward to making something specifically for you! :o)

The wonderful season of Autumn!

Hello all! I sincerely hope you are in a place where you can watch the leaves change, feel the crisp fall breeze, and the chill in the air. Unfortunately, I don't, so I have taken to making my home the essence of fall! I have pumpkin spice candles lit often, and a red/orange theme in my kitchen. With my next check, I plan to invest in some fall decorations to invite the essence of fall into my humble abode. I dream of autumn colored garlands gracing the tops of the walls, pumpkins set in corners or as centerpieces, and a few carefully selected decorations to keep watch on the windowsill. I think I am falling in love with Fall! As I walked through the craft stores, some decorative little items jumped out of me, and soon several little cards arranged themselves in my mind. You can find them in the "monthly" section. And then let's all bask in the essence of Autumn!

Come and get it!!!

Ok, so after hours of trying to figure out how to have people pay, I stumbled across the possibility of adding a button! And voila! Buttons are added! The best way for you to purchase a card would be for you to go through paypal. However, feel free to email me at RachelBalint@yahoo.com if you would like to propose a check. I will probably only accept checks from friends and family, but feel free to present your case! Now that the site is up, go shop! And please let me know if there is a card you would like to see! Thanks all!

Baby Steps

Creative Moments is the birth of a dream I conceived years ago. Now, my dream is coming true! ... slowly. This, as with any birth, is the result of a painful journey. A chronic illness has stripped me of my ability to work. But, it has not stripped me of my ability to live! In fact, were it not for my chronic illness, I would not have the time to commit to such a venture. However, because of my chronic illness, Creative Moments is stepping forward with little, tiny baby steps. Such a slow progression may seem like a disappointment to you. But you can use it to your advantage, and I'll tell you how. Right now, I am very slowly getting the "next" card prepared. Are you looking for a card that's not there? Tell me! Yours can be the next card! You can even personalize it! If your little sister's favorite colors are pink and purple, and she really likes fairy tales, I can make a pink and purple fairy tale card just for her! This is not a "One card fits all" business! Peruse, enjoy, and maybe even request. The options are limitless! Make sure you check out our Facebook page! Just type "Creative Moments" in the search box! If you can't find it there, let me know, and I can send you an invite. Happy perusing! Creative Moments
