<\/a><\/p>\nSometimes I take a pre-printed piece of card and just add a strip of paper, some ribbon or a charm and a message – so they don’t take too long to make!<\/p>\n
I have a Cuttlebug cutting\/embossing ‘machine’ and used it to emboss backing card or even to cut a shape to add to a card.<\/p>\n Last year, trees featured on many of my cards.<\/p>\n Last week I started making cards for this year. While I was in Brisbane back in July I bought 2 sheets of paper at the Kaisercraft shop and used them to make these cards – quick and easy – and I love the use of less traditional pastel colours! (Unfortunately the scanner hasn’t done real justice to the colours!)<\/p>\n I was able to make 12 cards using those 2 pieces of paper, some card scraps and a bit of kindy glitz!<\/p>\n The other thing that I did while I was home last time was to pre-cut and emboss some white card using my cuttlebug – and I have made another 2 dozen cards featuring the embossed ‘pictures’ and a few crystals and pearls. <\/p>\n A piece of ribbon or a hand-written message and they quickly came together!<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
