I would like to thank all my loyal MV readers and wish you all a wonderful start of Summer! I will be leaving for a two week trip to Hong Kong and The Maldives and have decided as much as I love sharing fabulous entertaining ideas and news about terrific deals and steals, I will take a mini-break from posting. MV will be up and running again after July 4th. The rest of my summer will be devoted to bringing, not only more chic event planning inspiration, but also lots of new features. So make sure to come back and feel free to send me comments, suggestions and any other feedbacks! To all the vendors out there, MV is always looking to share great services and products with all the brides and hostesses out there so please contact me about all your services and goodies. Until then, stay fabulous all! Xoxo, WKP

Etsy Friday: Crank Bunny Redux

WKPosner — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 11:21:28 +0000

Yes, yes, I know it's not Friday. Sorry for the delay but good things come to those who wait and patience is a virtue... and now that I'm done dosing out clichés...without further ado, here it is - Crank Bunny Redux! Shop, one of my first Etsy Friday boutiques, Crank Bunny for some deliciously whimsical, Grimm Brothers-ish pop-up cards. After my first write-up, the design maven, who has a pop-up book coming out soon btw {Paper Puppet Palooza}, sent me one of her lovely cards... I waited and waited until someone did me such a huge favor that they would deserve such a beautifully crafted and really one-of-a-kind note of gratitude. Tempted to keep it for myself, I mailed the card out knowing it was just too gorgeous to sit in my box of miscellaneous greeting cards and scrap booking trinkets. Check out some fabulous new designs since my last feature: A "secret code" card, "Let Them Eat Cake" card and a "Special Delivery" card perfect for a Chic-Boho-Fairy-Tale Theme shower!

Continue the hipster-garden theme by giving your guests a departing gift of SMP's message bean - there's a "thank you" one.
