Have you seen how expensive cards are getting these days? With the end of the school year comes Thank you cards for teachers,graduations,summer weddings... along with all the birthdays, plus fathers day and oh my gosh... that was a tun of money spent on cards. Have you seen all the great card kits they are coming out with lately? I thought I would share just a few from Basic Grey,Fancy Pants and We R Memory Keepers. Just to name a few. The kits include everything you need to make the cards and you can even add your own touches with ink, pop dots,ribbons and bling. The kits range in prices $8-$18. The more expensive kits tend to have more cards and embellishments but you can always add your own.
You can find some of these kits at your local scrapbook shops or I found them all plus more at ... scrapbook.com
I am the mother of two great kids. Keith is almost 21 and Kamryn is almost 18. I have been married to my very supportive and loving husband David for 21 years.I have been a crafter almost all my life. I had a teacher in 3rd or 4th grade who taught cross stitching and that was the start of it all. I have cross stitched, tole painted, knitted,made beaded jewelry, and now I am a Scrapbooker. I have been scrappin' for about 12 years.
(2 years cards and stamping, 10 years album making) I started making cards and it just didn't grab me like scrapbooking the 12x12's. I think it is all about my love for the pretty papers especially since I seem to have more pages without pictures! :)
This blog is where I will share my work for you to enjoy. I hope you like it!
