Calling All CARDS

Cardmaking! Its special because each card is one of a kind, some of them designed specifically FOR the recipient. Years ago when scrapbooking became popular, i swore i wouldnt get into it. There just seemed to be so much involved, so much to buy, etc. But after a while the scrapbooking bug bit me. Even more so, I realized that making cards is practically if not exactly like doing scrapbooking and I really became interested in that. For my moms 80th birthday I made her invitations with torn paper and jewels, rubberstamping and more. They read "youth is a gift of nature, old age is a work of art". I do lots of custom card orders in my etsy shop and really enjoy it. http://www.craftheart.etsy.com. I recently made a super girly, frilly card as a custom order and the inside read "what the F**k?" Seems the buyers friend was a prim and proper woman, but as the buyer tells me "she cusses like a sailor". I really enjoyed making that one!

I do still BUY some cards when I find some in a style that I dont make myself or one that just catches my eye so that i have to have it. I found this scarecrow card in jessis shop http://www.jessijewels.etsy.com/ and its simply amazing. Alot of work went into this one: rubberstamped and colored in with colored pencils and chalk. Its lovely. Browse around her shop. she also makes jewelry!
