A fun card making blog
A friend of mine asked for a set of thank you cards so I went back to a product set from Concord and 9th. The images were stencilled in seven colour combinations. I trimmed each of the panels and adhered them to grey cardstock and then a coloured card base. Some gems were added to each card.

These cards were all made the same way. I inked a circle that was masked on the card front and then heat embossed silhouette images inside the circles. The sentiments were also heat embossed and I die cut the front with a stitched rectangle die. Each front was adhered to the card base with craft foam.
Which set is your favourite?

At a recent crop, I used some layering washi tape and created 72 images - yes - 72! I die cut them in squares and circles and layered each on a white mat. The front card panels were all embossed and I added a gold hot foiled sentiment at the bottom.
I give these to my church for their Christmas market - people are always asking for Chrimstas cards and these were quick and easy to make!

I made two sets of eight cards each using my Betterpress system along with coordinating stencils. Each of these cards was pressed in black ink and stencilled. I trimmed them down to fit on a black mat and a green card base. Some silver gems were added to each along with a sentiment.

I created a single card like this a while ago and decided to make 16 of them to separate into two sets of 8 cards each. They are perfect to give away as the sentiment can be used for almost anything.

I recently visited a napkin store and bought several packages of napkins and rice paper. They make such beautiful card fronts. I only had to create mats and bases and add sentiments to make complete sets of cards - fast and easy!
This is the first post showing a selection of these napkin cards. I made almost 100 cards in total - terrific to give away!
Enjoy,
