At 13 cards I'm way behind on 52 card challenge but I have decided that from now I'm going to follow the prompts and get cards done for the rest of the year. I also aim to get caught up and meet the challenge of 52 cards this year. I'm making a start on my special christmas cards this week - eeek!!
Although I don't send all homemade cards, each year I do send send around 20 special handmade cards which I personalise for my friends and family. Over the next few weeks I'll be creating a few cards that look nice but that I can mass produce quickly so I can be nice and prepared this year. I'll be making 30 this year (at present count), so I'm looking at 6 designs.
Real simple card again, but this week I got the cuttlebug out. I don't have any kraft card and so I recycled a diet coke box which is Kraft on the inside, I used a christmas tree embossing folder by provocraft, added some stickles and topped with an aqua ribbon for a pop of colour.
I used a scalloped white card, but if I'd have had a plain edged one, I would have used that. I shall be making 5 more of these cards to go towards my 'special cards'.
Products used:-
Card - Hobbycraft
Embossing folder - cuttlebug (unable find find a current source, although available on eBay)
Ribbon - honey pie selection by cosmo cricket
Stickles - crystal
