Re: Xmas Cards Hand Made

That's pretty Azure, I like that.

There is a big place near here that runs day courses for different crafts and card making is one of them. I started doing some a couple of years ago, but mine always seemed to look like something off Blue Peter and made by a 5 year old, so I gave up.

Re: Xmas Cards Hand Made

I have been making greetings cards for a number of years now and always make my Christmas cards, they are usually started after Christmas and finished by the end of March, then I have the rest of the year to concentrate on my other cards.

Thank you Aysa

You can buy kits as well which is bit easier but more expensive

It is a lovely hobby but time consuming as well
I sometimes print the best ones too.

You're very kind. I might have another go, I did enjoy it I must say.

This is a Decoupage ono in kit form where you carefully glue small parts on top of each other to make it three dimentional.

You can also buy inserts to put in the centre with text as well

Re: Xmas Cards Hand Made

Yes, I remember doing some decoupage, I've still got some of the tiny sticky pads that hold the layers apart. I liked that.
Still got quite a few rubber stamps as well.
