I almost can´t believe it´s already 5 years back, when Friederike! found her way to me
and I got hold of a sewing machine. This brought me to changing brushes and canvas into scissors and needles.
So many good things happened since then and I´m VERY grateful for all the encouring support I recieved
throughout the past years, that allowed me to keep on doing what I love so much.
Today I´d like to say THANK YOU! to each and everybody who left some kind words here on this blog,
sent me an email or supported my tiny business in any other way!
The last weeks have been very busy. We reworked my website a bit and I recieved a wonderful gift from my husband
to my anniversary. He spent every minute of his spare time in implementing a new shop system.
We just pressed the life button, so it´s brand new. Please take a look around.
You will find the latest herzensart additions, like Britain greeting cards and also the viking cards are back again,
a Grenadier rubber stamp and the little punk stamp are now part of the herzensart range too
Also new is, that I´m offering some of my designs "made-to-order, such as vikings, cowboys and co.
They can be found here.
For the next 5 days (starting today, ending on Wednesday 25th August), we give 15% anniversary discount
on plates, rubber stamps and cards.
We hope you like what you see and find the shop easy to handle and navigate and we would be very grateful
if you´d leave your feedback in the comment field below. This will help us to improve usability.
We also have something to give away! By commenting you have the chance to win one of five
give-away-sets, containing a herzensart rubber-stamp of your choice plus a set of Britain greeting cards.
Good luck!
Friederike and I are celebrating with a glass of champange now. Skol!

Happy 5th anniversary! I only discovered your work and your blog in March this year, and now I recommend you to everyone.
Best wishes, Renee
Happy Birthday!
Ich wünsche Dir und Friederike noch ganz, ganz viele erfolgreiche Jahre :-)
Der Shop ist schön und funktioniert ;-)
Einen ganz lieben Gruß von
myriam.
Happy birthday Herzensart ! Cheers to the many many years of wonderful creations to come !
Congrats! So I was looking at your shop page again and I thought of something that might be helpful. Under your shipping costs you could include a table for zone 4 in US dollars. Since zone's 1,2, and 3 will probably be paying in Euro's that doesn't so much matter, but if you could include a column with the US dollars for zone 4 that would be helpful. I LOVE your melamine plates by the way. LOVE them!
(Also, I LOVE that you have the sold items page, so much fun to see where they went!)
Viele, viele Glückwünsche zu diesen 5 wichtigen Jahren! Ich bin immer wieder hoch erfreut,wenn ich deinem "Journal" unterwegs bin, ... wahrhaft einzigartige und wunderbarste Dinge ! Und ja (ich hab es vorhin schon mal irgendwo gelesen)... mehr (herzensart)Wikinger braucht die Welt!!
Happy Anniversary! I am surprised you have only been sewing your darling Vikings for 5 years. You are marvelous. Love, love, love watching to see what you'll create next.
Wishing you another 5 creative years!
Love, Alissa
@pinksuedshoe: that´s a good point, will check what we can do.
As currency rates are changing permanently, we probably could include a currency converter to the shipping cost site
Happy aniversary! And good luck with the renew web and the shop.
I think that more of words of support are said, just one more thing...continue enjoying with your job and fulling our lifes with childish feelings. Thanks
Congratulations!!
I´ve discovered your blog just a while ago and it´s amazing!
Happy anniversary!
Happy Anniversary! Your work is so nice! Wish you all the best for the years to come.

Dear Sandra. Happy anniversary! Hope you celebrate this fact also with your lovely and funny vickings:). Best regards from Wikkie (writing you from my holiday in France).
Sting speaks for me when he says "Every little thing you do is magic".
Thank you for shearing.
Congratulations on your anniversary! And your new website is brilliant.
I wish you lots of creative joy and business for the next 5 years and beyond.
(I still have 3 of the cards I won from you in 2008 in frames in my living room. They remind me of my Dad!)
Skol!
