Joyful Card

This is a “Joyful” card. I love the wrapped presents. Again, when you have such pretty paper, it isn’t necessary to add a lot of embellishments to the front. Here I simply layered a strip of patterned paper and added an embellished tag. The sentiment on the inside will say it […]

Happy Christmas Card

This card is another of those that will be handed to its recipient. I usually make cards like these when they are to accompany a gift that I’m either giving or if I’m mailing the present and card in a box. The dimensional embellishment on the envelope precludes it from going through the […]

Bag Making, Box Making and Frame Making Kits

I love the Bagamites, they are cutest little way to create a gift bag. And the Kreate-A-Bag template kit has so many great sizes - this little guy is the smallest size - the other templates make much bigger bags. Perfect for gift giving - there’s a wine gift bag, and a lunch […]

Christmas Cards

Making Christmas Cards

Creating cards doesn’t have to be difficult. This is simply a sheet of 12″ x 12″ 2-sided patterned paper - cut in half, and then each 12″ x 6″ sheet is folded in half to make two 6″ x 6″ cards. The envelope is the perfect size and was created from the template […]

Card Making: Day 31 - Last, But Not Least

I had a great time making these cards. I’ve always loved working with paper, and card making is so gratifying. For one thing, I sure love not paying $5 for a card at the store! By now, of course, all of my family and friends expect hand made cards - I’m sure […]

Card Making: Day 30

For this card, I stamped and wet embossed the designs. I then tore out the paper, and inked the edges. I love glittery things on Christmas cards - it always seems so festive.
This is a 6″ x 6″ card and envelope made using Green Sneaker’s Templates.
