Do you ever wonder how Mynotecards came to be?
Today, I want to take you on a journey from the birth of our humble beginnings to what we are now.
Once upon a time my card making was just a hobby.
In fact I started out creating a lot of small watercolor paintings as a teenager. I had a collection of them They were never framed (what a shame) To me having all this creativity and drive to constanlty create seemed pointless if I wasn't going to share it with anyone.
What was the point of making all this stuff and sticking it in a notebook for no one to see.
In the meantime I grow to love letter writing and would spend time writing letters to cousins, friends and my penpal in the Netherlands
Finally in 1982 , long after those teen years were over,
I rediscovered my love of watercolor painting.
It was a way of relaxing after chasing a toddler and attending to new born all day.
I was a stay at home mom with no car and a husband that worked 14-16 hours a day 6 days a week.
My inability to travel to the card store to buy any cards caused me to make my own thank you
for the baby gift cards.
My aunt had gotten one of these cards and said she loved it and framed it
Then something amazing happened - we saw how much joy my notecards brought to people, and we decided to share it with the world!
And the rest is history!!!!
