There are few things more personal than giving someone a handmade card with a personal note inside. It doesn’t matter if it’s a birthday, sympathy or just a hi-how-ya-doing card….it shows the giver truly values you and took the time to find the perfect card.
I have always wanted to make cards and over the last couple of years I have collected items to make said cards. I have a Cricut, two embossers (one manual, one electric), various stamps, dies and cardstock.
I have regular colored pencils, the entire set (and I’m talking entire!) of Chameleon pens and watercolor pencils which are so far my very favorite to work with!!!
I am in the process of coloring (with the watercolor pencils) many images then I will go through all of my cardstock, embossing folders and stamps to see what kind of cards I can put together. I hope to eventually have enough different cards both in sets and and in singles to start putting them on my etsy site.
Here is a photo of the watercolor images I have done so far.
I am pleased with they way they came out!
That is awesome. You must have a craft room, that room inside your bedroom? I would buy some.
I am following your blog. Love you busy daughter.
