Before I had kids I was all about making cards. Scrapbooking didn’t have much appeal to me. Really, how many scrapbook pages could I make of my husband drinking Mtn. Dew? When I had kids I was all about scrapbooking for many years, but lately I’ve fallen in love with card making again. It seems somehow less important to mess up a card, than to mess up a scrapbook page.
If it’s been ages since you made a card, give it a try this week. We’ve got lots of beautiful examples for you to be inspired by, or just outright copy. We don’t mind at all if you copy, as long as you have fun making a card!
Today I’m sharing a sweet Mother’s Day card I created using the Banner Designs file from the Craft Room. To create the layered mom sentiment I used the Embossing Tool and embossed on vellum before I cut the letters out. I love the look of embossing on vellum and it’s definitely my go-to look for elegant cards.
