So I did some more cards.

First, the “Love” card. I did the spots with a sponge dauber. The Cherry Cobbler paper in the back is actually two toned paper. Put it though the big shot and then sand off the top layer, and you get two tones of red making a beautiful border.

The birds were so much easier then I thought they would be. I thought they turned out really good for how simple it was. All done with the bird punch.

So I finally started a website. I thought I would start with the first two Valentine’s Day cards that I have made so far. I plane on making a bunch more. I do have these for sale for $4 each. If you would like one just let me know. I’ll have more soon. And I do plan on having some kits for kids to make their own cards for their friends.

Well, I’m not sure what else to say in my first post… I think it’s going to take me a while to get used to this. Oh well. Have fun!
