Hello! I'm Emily although I go by Emele in all of my online places. Emele is a combination of my first name and middle name... I'll let you guess what my middle name might be!!















I'm English but have spent 6 years living on the Greek island of Crete - That's why you'll see a lot of prints with that special mediterranean feel in my Etsy store! Right now I split my time between both countries - Summer in England, Winter in Crete... The best of both worlds!



I've been into photography since about 2004, I fell into it by accident when I got my first digital camera.
Before that the only photos I took were snapshops at Christmas and on vacations!




















As well as selling my prints through Etsy (http://emelephotography.etsy.com/)
I also sell my photography as home decor and gift items at Zazzle (http://www.zazzle.com/emele1) where you can buy cards, magnets, keychains, mousepads and so much more with my photos on!

I LOVE to Sew

Fabric Greetings is a great Etsy shop that features specialty handmade fabric cards. She shares..." for me, sewing is the greatest form of relaxation. I have done other crafts, but I always come back to the sewing machine. I just need to sew! I also teach for local quilt shops and fabric store. Fortunately, I have a loving and supportive husband who understands this. And he knows exactly where to put the sewing machine when we pack the car for vacation.I love sending cards - all kinds of cards for no special reason. So I started making these fabric postcards as a way of letting someone know they are special. No two cards are exactly alike, just as no two people are exactly alike. I have sort of made it my mission to convince people to send a card that fits the person receiving it."  Enjoy a visit to her wonderful Etsy shop

I am a retired teacher who thinks she was born with a sewing machine at her finger tips. I LOVE to sew and I love to send cards to family and friends. So when I discovered these fabric postcards, I knew I had found something that I would enjoy doing. It is my mission to convince people to send special one of a kind cards to special people. We aren't mass produced, so why settle for a mass produced greeting card.

I am lucky enough to have a huge sewing studio that could easily get out of hand. So I have cubbies for the colors of fabrics I work with, many hanging spool racks to keep threads organized and off table tops, and a drawer unit devoted entirely to the embellishments and cording for my cards. My counter height cutting surface is always a disaster, but I have learned to work with that. The best thing about all this is that it is on the second floor of our home and nobody ever needs to go up there except us.

My only advice to those starting out is to find something that you are passionate about and go for it.
Life is too short to not enjoy yourself.
