Funcards

 

How did you pick your store(s) name(s)? (feel free to write up each shop name if they each have a story) *	It all started out with an free e-card website we started with funny animal photographs. The website is called... you quessed it, funcards (http://funcards.ueuo.com). Since we received such positive response on the photographs, I started looking for a way to make paper greetingcards out of them as well. That's how I found Zazzle, and love it! And since Zazzle has so many different kind of product, we don't limit ourselves just to the greeting cards. We now have a wide range of all kinds of product, still with the focus on funny and heartwarming animals.

http://www.zazzle.com/adorable_baby_donkey_boy_gift_tags_postcard-239806052343072572 Adorable baby donkey boy gift tags. I like these because the baby donkey is so cute, and the idea of gift tags is so handy. A lot of people use businesscards for gift tags, but I think an disadvantage of that might be that you have to buy a bunch. http://www.zazzle.com/teach_your_children_to_read_bumper_sticker-128478523881178956 Teach your children to read bumper sticker I think the mother cat and baby kitten reading a book together look so sweet. I think it's a fun way of showing the importance of learing how to read. http://www.zazzle.com/lovely_baby_donkeys_mug-168595221085399346 Lovely baby donkeys mug You don't see so many products with a baby donkey, and this donkey is so adorable. http://www.zazzle.com/marionette_doll_bag-149663017347831376 Marionette Doll Bag This is a photograph I took of a marionette doll I have, which was made by my ant Johanneke who is an artist., and I think it's so beautiful. (Johanneke is now starting her own store with all her marionette dolls and drawings). http://www.zazzle.com/ook_namens_ons_pvdd_bumper_sticker-128212596560569412 Dutch Election bumper sticker I really like this photograph I took of 3 generations female sheep. If you zoom in you can really see their faces, which are all so different. I made a Dutch Election Sticker out of it, for the "party for animals" which we have in Holland.
