One of my goals this year is to make more of my own cards AND give them away!! I either make them so far in advance that I lose them, or forget until the last minute and then it is too late. A friend from my Gypsy class (Bonnie) gave me a Tim Holtz Flower die cut which I used to make this flower. I am having so much fun cutting different things with my cuttlebug that I can't really cut well with my cricut (newspaper, book pages, fabric, etc).
I also cut out a bunch of sentiments like celebrate above and filed them in a plastic envelope thing so I am prepared for those last minute cards. I also ran the sentiments through the Xyron. No excuses!!!
I made this card for one of my daycare moms for her birthday. It is simple, yet a little sassy just like me!!
Do you have any other tricks that you use to make card making any easier for a fellow scrapbooker? I would love to hear them!!
Look at you and your card making skills! Gorgeous card... you really should make more!! lol! That is one of my goals too this year! I am trying to force myself to make a card with the scraps from each scrapbook page which seems to happen about 50% of the time! Well... it's better than I did last year!! I love this flower! And I am totally impressed that you have already cut sentiments for future use... you are too good!!
