Using a few bits from the card making stash and then some more of the 3D Decoupage sheets that I got last year I've made some thank you cards and a couple of birthday cards. I think there are now enough cards in my card box for the year.
I'm working my way through all the card making stuff acquired over the last 30+ years, really don't want to buy more or move it all again.
Thank you for all the comments yesterday
Back Tomorrow

They are beautiful, I have stopped making cards at the moment as I have plenty. I still keep a few odd crafty bits though.
ReplyDeleteI like making the decoupage cards and was given some by a friend who was giving up cardmaking. Very therapeutic to make.
ReplyDeleteIt's such a joy to send and receive home made cards, isn't it1
ReplyDeleteYour cards are very nice Sue and it's lovely to receive a pretty card. I use to make for lots of cards for the hospice to sell until I moved and can't make them now but still have all the stuff I am hoping I can make them again.

I love the cards with the blue hydrangeas. Receiving homemade cards is so much nicer than bought ones.
ReplyDeleteYour cards are lovely, I use the decoupage sheets, they make up such pretty cards. Although had an e-mail recently to say the company is closing, what a shame. Helen S.
ReplyDeleteOh Bother, I didn't know Craft Creations were closing down,what a shame, they are the only place I've found the very thin sticky pads for 3D decoupage. Stopping their magazine must have caused a drop in orders.
DeleteI also to love Craft Creations magazine, but admi I have not seen it fir a long.

Your cards are lovely Sue.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I miss making cards, but not enough I guess to start again. It's nice when you get into a creative frame of mind though and designs come easily isn't it. You can happily lose yourself for a few hours and have something nice to show for it at the end.
Your cards are beautiful, must make people smile when they receive one.
ReplyDeleteIts always a joy to receive a crafted card. Yours are beautiful, made with love.
ReplyDeleteThought I'd let you know they are not closing until the end of March, but are only taking orders until the begining of March, the lease is up on their building so need to clear out everything by the end of March, I just had a look and they currently still have the sticky pads, so you could get some to tied you over if you needed.

ReplyDeleteThose cards are a delight, so fresh and pretty. I hope you have plenty of indoor things to keep you occupied for a day or two - the weather forecast looks...cold.
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely Sue and so much nicer to receie than bought ones because they show such love and care.
ReplyDeleteVery lovely cards Sue my daughter does lots of craft stuff and finds reasonable priced materials on The Works website including books much cheaper than in many other places.Many thanks for your blog I thoroughly look forward to it and enjoy it x
ReplyDeletePs Sue my daughter also lives in Suffolk x Jo
ReplyDeleteThe cards are just beautiful! I hate to think of all the arts and crafts supplies I have squirreled away. I really need to go through everything and possibly donate some to the local Community Center. They have a day care and a before and after school program, and I'm sure they could put it to good use.
ReplyDeleteLovely cards. Those that receive them will be very lucky.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
