Hello - Again

Hello, again...

Just another way to say 'Hello'.  Just in time for summer.  This is one of my favorites.  The colors are so vibrant.  Just you can't help but smile when you see this card.  I love the dimension.  Every element on the card is raised except for bike.  The bike is covered with Glossy Accents to give it a bit a dimension.  It's a really nice twist in the design.

I hope you like!

Mass Production

So...have you ever needed to make a lot of cards in a relatively short period of time?  I have and that can seem like a daunting task, but it doesn't have to be.

I recently received an order for multiple "Thank You" card sets and I wanted to manage my time wisely on this project.  (I can become distracted so easily some times. LOL)  So to ensure the best use of my time, I implemented a true 'mass production' type style of working.

Below is the video that I created to demonstrate my version of 'mass production'.  I hope you enjoy it!

Oh, and of course I couldn't leave you without a picture of the card that was featured in the set.

Check out the video to see how I made several of these cards in short period of time. 

Thank You

I know that we have many opportunities throughout the course of a day to say two little words that means so much...."Thank You". Well, a dear friend of mine contacted me to make a card for her for just such an occasion.  Not only is she a dear friend, but she is also one of my loyal customers.  So of course I was pleased to design a custom greeting card for her.

After thinking about her reasons for wanting the "Thank You" card, I knew that the design would need to be simple, elegant and bold.  So this is what I came up with.

Supplies for the card:
1. Soft White Cardstock from the Paper-Source
2. Black Cardstack from Michaels
3. Alpha Stickers Dimensional Chipboad by Colorbok (actual spelling)
4. My custom handwritten font cut out with my Pazzles Inspiration Electronic Cutter
5. Baker's Twine in Red and White
6. Window image cut out with my Pazzles Inspiration Electronic Cutter
