One of my cards
In my “profile” I mention that I like to make cards. Well, here’s an example. It is the first I’ve done (that I like) without looking at someone else’s and copying every move they made.
I made it using various stamp sets from Stampin’ Up!, do not go there. It’s highly addictive and will rob you blinde rendering your check book useless. We have a local lady that is a “demonstrator” and I usually do not miss a Stampin’ Up! party, much to my husband’s disappointment. But it does help my crafty side and is very satisfying. I can now save money making cards that are super expensive fun and expressive, instead of buying the store bought .99 cent kind that are so impersonal (said with a deep amount of sarcasm).
Just another habit I thought you should know about me.

very creative! i would love to receive a handmade card that nice! much more meaningful.
That is really great. I had a friend that did Stamping UP and I attended a party years ago. I have various supplies to make cards and sometimes still do (I also like to decorate my own gift bags.) I just find that now I’m riding again, not much gets done in the craft department! 🙂
What a beautiful card Joan… its great fun making your own cards, I love making them.
I have to admit that I have not entered the world of Stampin up…. (yet)!
Very nice, I tried my hand at making cards last year, mine not nearly as nice, I’m afraid. That is very good. Love it!
