Cameron Cards

business of crafting. I have always had some sort of craft project on the go, but over the past few years I have come to appreciate creating handmade cards for many reasons. First of all, there are limitless possibilities for suiting the craft to my mood. If I'm having a reflective day I can put that energy into Sympathy, or Thinking of You Cards. Conversely if I am feeling giddy and excited, I can funnel that into quirky birthday cards. Card-making also feeds the life long learner in me - there are countless techniques to master, and so many ways to use them! By far my favourite element of hand crafting cards however, has very little to do with the creative process. Here's the thing - I love people, and I love the stories they have to share. Through my past volunteer and work experience I have learned that everyone has a story, and most people have many. I have seen first hand what a joy it is when someone finds something that resonates exactly with the story that they need to speak to. How great is it to stumble upon the perfect card that relays the perfect message (whether intended by the creator or not!) to the person who will receive it. Witnessing those moments, and helping create them for people is what Cameron Cards is all about. Each Senior's home day, every craft show, and all of my "Stop n' Shops" give me the chance to help other people send just the right message and to do it in a way that is personal and relevant to the receiver. It gives me such joy to see a customer find "the right card" for whoever they are shopping for. I am excited to expand this to the on-line world. I can only imagine the new stories that are waiting to be heard. What story are you looking to share with your next handmade card purchase? I would be happy to hear it, and even happier if you let me be a part of it!
