"Christmas" Iris Folding patterns collection

Hello everybody,
Sorry I haven't been posting much lately, but was so depressed because I found out that someone has been selling my patterns on Ebay without haveing any rights for that! She has been selling 35 of my butterflies and so I had to deal with that for quite some time...Very sad. Anyway, enough about sad things and let me tell you about my new collection :-) I have been working on it for quite some time and wanted to make the patterns not too difficult so that most of people can use them. This collection has total of 24 Iris folding patterns and + 9 sheets of Christmas embellishments / Inserts that you will just need to print , cut and attach to your cards ( very fast and easy way of making a card! ) The price for this collection is 20 USD.  In my previous post I  have posted some of the ready cards made using patterns from this collection.
If you are interested in purchasing this collection, please e-mail me at zartonqdesigns@yahoo.com  or mandalasoulart@yahoo.com

Wishing you all a great day!

Butterflies return!!!

Hi everybody! :-)
Here I am with a new collection of butterflies :-) It seems I can never get enough of them! So the name I chose for my first butterflies patterns collection is quite right: "Obsession" :-) Now this is my "Obsession 2" butterflies patterns collection :-) 20 new butterflies and additional 2 flowers patterns! :-) I decided to add the flowers patterns, because I thought you might want to combine 2 patterns together and make a whole picture! Sound nice ,right? :-) One of the flowers is the Iris Folding version of the flower from my "Crystal Beginning" painting, and the second flower is a new design of mine :-)
I priced this collection same like the previous one, only 20 USD. :-)
If you are interested in purchasing this collection, please contact me at
zartonqdesigns@yahoo.com
Also, since now I have 3 collections in total for sale, please tell me the collection name when you are placing your order :-)
Till later!

Finally!!! My mandala patterns are ready! :-)

Hi crafters! :-)

I finally completed my mandala patterns collection! Yayyy!!!! :-) Took me quite some time, but now when they are ready I can finally work on my next project, and I think you can guess what it will be, right??? Butterflies!!!!!!! Again! Yes, yes! :-) What can I do....I just can't stop creating them! :-) And especially now, when I lost my job...:-(

Anyway :-) back to mandalas...

This collection is called " Crystal Beginning ". "Crystal Beginning " because that was the name of one of my mandala paintings, I loved it so much, but had to sell it a few years ago. So I decided to make the Iris Folding version of it, which then followed by many other mandalas. You can see that painting on top of my post.

So now more information about my "Crystal Beginning" mandalas collection:

this collection includes 21 mandala patterns and 1 cross pattern. All of these patterns are designed by me and are not copies from any other source.

The price for this collection is 22 USD. I cannot charge less, because these patterns took a lot of time to create and I hope you understand. I accept only Paypal for payment.

I did not make a CD this time, since it doesn't make any sense, because the mailing price is higher than the collection itself! I will send the patterns by e-mail.

If you would like to purchase this collection, please email me at:

zartonqdesigns@yahoo.com

When I receive your e-mail with the purchase order, I will send you a payment request via Paypal, and will send you the patterns immediately after I have received the payment.

I hope you will all enjoy my new collection! :-)

Till later!

Anna

And 3 more

My mandalas

Here are few of my ready mandalas I designed and tested to see if the patterns are correct. My mandalas collection will have total of 20 mandala patterns and will be ready by the end of this month :-) I always loved painting mandalas and to be honest never would have think that some day I was going to make them in Iris Folding! But here I am and I am really enjoying it :-)

I will make a post about the collection information once it is ready ;-)

Hugs

Anna
