Card Making

Category for all my handmade cards. I started making cards in 2009. I thought i’d catalog my progression to see if I continue to progress.

Happy Friendship Day Cards

Not sure if this is done everywhere, but at our local school it’s not ‘Valentines Day’ it’s ‘Friendship Day’.  Also, they are called ‘Friendship Cards’. Anywhoo, I wanted to do this idea I found on a blog last year but didn’t get too until now. I love how they turned out but it was not(…)

Baby Bird Shower Card

I made this card more than a month ago. My sister in law, who has already had her baby, had a baby shower which is who I made this card for. Here is how the card progressed. First, I chose my paper. I’ve expressed on here before that I have and primarily use nothing but(…)

I have tons of photos that I’ve been taking (even video of a technique that I will be editing soon for posting!) but haven’t had the chance until now to start posting them.  This was a baby shower card that I made for my niece  a couple of weeks ago that I wanted to share.(…)

I have another birthday card to share today. I made this one for my niece and she seemed to have really liked it.  Being my own worse critic, I think I may have over done the embellishments a bit. I wish I would have put less ribbon on it and less flowers. It took away(…)

Happy Dad’s Day! Card

I wish I would have set a little more time aside to have put more thought into this card for my Dad for today but still I am glad with the results and he liked it as well. My inspiration was all the cards and boxes I saw recently where people  fashioned paper pieces into a ‘tie’(…)

My Second Card – Welcome Baby!

My niece had her 2nd daughter this month and we are going to see her for the first time at our memorial day cookout. I thought i’d make her a card for the occasion to put her gift inside. I think I had a much easier time with this card since before hand I had(…)

My first card. I know.

Okay, I’m putting it out there … my very first card. I see things I like and things I don’t like now that it’s done. Over the weekend I found these great fabric leaves at a yard sale and instantly thought they would look good on a card or a scrapbooking page. That was where(…)
