Since I share most of my life with you all… here’s a bit of good news!

On December 8th my partner Mike and I went to Quebec City. He planned the trip, and had some awesome adventures lined up for us.

He hired a photographer and popped the question in Place Royale.

I was offline for a bit savouring the moment, and busy behind the scenes producing orders.

As the chapter of one my stories ends, a new chapter begins. ❤️

⚠️important news⚠️

Hi everyone! It’s with a heavy heart I’m here to announce our website is closing down. I may or may not reopen later back on Etsy with an extremely limited catalog. The full details are on my website, but the quick story is things are becoming hard to keep up with. Costs are astronomical, and my work life balance has been nonexistent as I work full time on top of this.

You’ll have until December 31st, 2023 to place potentially your last ever order with me. Starting now, all orders with an ambassador code give an extra 5% off at checkout, and orders $100+ offer a free mystery tag, while quantities last.

Orders placed before this announcement will have 4 weeks (or less, if possible) turnaround - orders placed NOW will be 4-8 weeks depending on the volume of orders placed.

Once all final orders are fulfilled, the website will be shut down permanently.

Truly from the bottom of my heart, I want to thank each and every one of you for your support. I have loved getting to know you all. I will stay in touch even if I decide not to continue stamping on Etsy.

I appreciate your patience with me at this time.

Thank you

Ashley ❤️

Hello everyone! It’s been a crazy few weeks over here… heck, a crazy few months! Where has 2023 gone? Are we all in this weird universal worm hole where the year just vanished? Just me? 👀

With this being said, the Howlidays are quickly approaching. I am asking my followers if you’re planning on doing a gift order to please consider placing it sooner than later to avoid disappointment!

Usually the canda post system gets slowed down significantly and I cannot control postal delays. I am almost caught up on my regular orders right now, but that could quickly change.

I’m a one lady show here, and I also do work full-time. I love doing this, and it’s definitely a passion, but it isn’t unfortunately profitable enough to pay the bills. I do this purely to keep funding my own stamping obsession, which benefits you with new designs when I can! I also love seeing all the doggos wearing their WNC gear and chatting with their amazing hoomans. Please keep in mind on top of 40+ work hours a week I have to produce, package, administrate, social media, photograph, distribute, order supplies, and more! I will close orders if it gets too busy to manage so as to not miss turnaround time.

Turnaround is generally 4 weeks, sometimes quicker. The turnaround is just the time it takes to produce the order. Shipping is always an extra time on top.

I want to give a heartfelt thanks to everyone who has supported this teeny tiny small business, I am very appreciative of your kindness 🥰 it’s much easier to do what you love when the people who support you are so understanding and wonderful.

When you get an uncommon request and you don’t have the stamps… you improvise! I made this boomerang by hand with an “I” “-“ and curve stamp. What do you think, how did I do?

I love receiving pictures of my work being well used and loved 🥰 there’s truly no higher compliment.

Thank you so much to Lily’a owners for sending some shots of her new tag!

Hey everyone! I’ve decided to run a sale on my website. 25% off everything (excluding apparel), discounts are automatic. Discount codes are not stackable.

I’ll likely only run this sale for a week or two, so if you’ve had your eye on something now is the time! I only have a handful of orders being produced right now, so shipping should be quicker than my usual 4 weeks too!

Thank you as always for your support in my small business 🥰 I really appreciate it

I love this design! It would look great with a busy sky, too, but I also like a super busy bottom part of a tag and the simplicity of just a name at the top.

Do you like a tag full of design? Or is simple better?

Anyone else know the type? 😂 Paisley is DEF chaotic neutral. IFYKYK 🤪

Would this be a fun design for the store? Could do all the alignments as an option, and with or without the florals.

Tag your chaotic neutral friends 😅

📣 ANNOUNCEMENT!

My Etsy shop has been reopened! To celebrate, I’m running 25% off on the Etsy shop only!

Let’s get honest. Sales this year have been pretty brutal. I haven’t been able to bring much new product in due to that. I’m hoping that reopening my Etsy shop gets the word out about my products to some new eyes!

While reopening my Etsy shop is mainly about growing my audience, I wanted to share this sale so that my repeat supporters who buy from my website have a chance to grab a product at a discount, too!

Purchasing from my website is still the best way to support me (off sale time!) and my website offers more customization than Etsy does, so all of the fun shapes and more designs will always be available on www.wanderingnorthco.com

Cute lil spring/summer number with some sunflowers 🌻😌

Did ya know? I have ZERO orders on the board right now. That never happens. I’m all caught up so if you need something quick, now is the time to order!

We love a good heavy weight tag! These tags are extra thick, extra durable, and can even be stamped with a design on both sides without the impressions showing through.

What design would you put on your heavy weight tag?

This request was inspired by Peggy's Cove! I don't have quite the right rock formation stamps, but I tried to get creative with what I have.

Swipe over to see some pics from when we drove down east and actually visited Peggy's Cove a couple of years ago.

What do you think, how did I do? 😁

Let's post something a little different 🫶

This special keychain had big meaning and impact to this orderer, who I will keep anonymous for their privacy ❤️

I really love how this turned out. I am so open to custom orders, all you have to do is DM me and we can make your vision come true.

Not me being super late in posting some awesome shots from my ambassadors 🤦‍♀️

But this shot especially is so stunning, it needs to be shared. Especially right after Canada day, it's a perfect shot of our gorgeous scenery we are so fortunate to have.

Thank you for such a great shot of Aspen rockin' her WNC tag ❤️

Happy Canada Day 🇨🇦

Unfortunately I'm not celebrating this year 😭 I came down with some nasty bacterial virus, and I was supposed to attend a bachelor party for one of my best friends but I didn't want to spread my 🦠

So, instead, we spent Canada day inside this year napping all day 🥲

Nevertheless, I am super proud to be Canadian, and wanted to post quickly a festive design I made recently for .the.bc ❤️

This tag was seriously ✨out of this world 🚀

Can't beat a good space tag. I was given the permission to go crazy with the space 🌌 theme, so of course I had to sneak in the astronaut dog 🐕👨‍🚀

Thanks for the trust and fun!

I really love the Drifting Canoe design, but I haven't had an opportunity to do it with a night sky... Until now!

I love how the night sky works with any design. Did you know you can request it on anything?

The best part about premade designs is anything is changeable when you make a design piece by piece.. I can customize every little aspect of the tag to make it your own. That's pretty special.
