Designer Brings Innovative Cards to Dallas F!NDS
January, 2008 – For the second year in a row, Eloyce Newman, founder of Sparkle Designs, brings her unique line of greeting cards to the F!NDS Dallas Temp Show at the World Trade Center, January 18-21. She will showcase her cards at booth 2525 on the 12th Floor from 8:30 am - 6:00 pm. At last year's F!NDS Dallas Temp Show, Sparkle Designs won two awards: Best of PAPERF!NDS and F!NDS Best Booth Overall for the 12th Floor.
Sparkle Designs produces a fresh line of greeting cards that offer unique wishes for everyday life experiences. Each of the imprintable, fill-in, and gift-enclosure cards is printed on high-quality paper and features original designs ranging from whimsical to contemporary to traditional. Newman's cards come in dozens of styles and colors, and her designs can be personalized by hand or printed on a home or office computer.
"With the founding of Sparkle Designs," says Newman, "I can share my creative talents with others. When customers give Sparkle cards to family and friends, I'd like them to feel the joy that I experience when I design these cards. Sparkle cards are created to celebrate everyone’s special moments – and offer a meaningful way for people to speak from the heart to those they care about most."
New ideas flow consistently out of Newman's studios. This year's show
features several new lines, including:
- a wild west collection of western initial cards called “Fancy
That”.
- new flat gift enclosure cards that are perfect for florists
and others who enjoy making gift baskets – or gifts of any kind.
These cards come in unique 2 7/8 inch squares.
- new western looking cards with blue bonnets, a truck and
cows, an armadillo, and a cow jumping over a pepper shaker.
Eloyce Newman is an artist who grew up in West Texas painting landscapes of her family's ranch land and creating handmade cards that she gave as presents to family and friends. In 1994, after receiving her bachelor's degree in visual arts from , Newman taught beginning drawing and painting classes. She then spent ten years as a public relations specialist for a Dallas based university, where she developed valuable experience creating newsletters, brochures, websites, and other innovative computer graphic designs, including special events invitations. Newman would often handpick materials from local scrapbook stores to make the invitations herself – at times, more than 200 invitations for a single event.
"I've always enjoyed making cards that were different and unique," says Newman.
