Branding Package FOR FREE!

Hello!
  I just spend ALL DAY trying to find a template to make stickers.  I could not find anything and was getting very frusterated.  I tried Paint, Word, Gimp and various templates online.  I also wanted to learn how to make my own business cards without having to pay anyone.  Especially becuase my buiness changes everyday as well as my products(I like to have my product images on my business cards)
  After hours of searching I finally found the perfect website!  You don't have to download anything and its super easy. 
   Avery.com!  They have a whole section where u can pick a template, add your pictures and custom text, then save it and print it off right there!
  Here is the exact link http://enu.print.avery.com/SelectSku.  I am so excited I found this website!  I made thank you cards, Stickers, and business cards all for free and in less than an hour!  I finally branded my new business with my fav pic!*  Which you will be seeing alot im sure of :)

Business Cards
I also got a t-shirt with my custom logo on it.  But I got it from vista print for only like 12 bucks.  On the Avery.com website I saw that they have a Tshirt transfer option.  I am going to try that soon to make shirts for my family and friends!

My favorite pieces of hemp jewelry

 Hello guys!  I wanted to show a you a few of my favorite personal pieces that I wear all the time. My first favorite I just discoverd is the blue Hemp Bracelet.  I threw it on one day and realized how awesome it goes with my olive skin tone.
 Another one of my favorites is actually also one of my newest projects. The adjustable Anklet/Bracelet!  I have been meaning to try and make an adjustable piece of hemp jewelry ever since I owened one when i was a little girl. I just recently had some motivation so I finally jumped on it.  It works best with colored hemp since it is softer and allows for more give.  Plus that way it allows me to experiment with colors which i love to do!  I made one called the bumble bee and another one called bubble gum.
