Our mailboxes don’t usually come with nice surprises. If you are like me, you set your bills and such up online so you don’t have to deal with them in the mailbox, and let’s face it… it is easier. But wouldn’t it be nice if when we did make the trip to the mailbox there was a beautiful card waiting to be opened with YOUR name on it ! I think we forget about snail mail sometimes, but just think of the smile on that person’s face when they see it. It is time to take back sending cards and making people smile. Every Thursday I will post a card sketch that is pretty easy to put together even if you are a beginner. I hear you.. “That’s easy for you to say!”. But what if I can guarentee you that you can make a beautiful card? Would you give it a try? That is my challenge to all of you. Here is a sketch to start you off with.
When your card is completed, send me a copy via text @ 801-597-4896 or e-mail and be entered into the monthly drawing for a Oldie but Goodie Stamp Set.
If you need help in how to get started, let me know. I am happy to create a set of tutorials taking you from the very beginning!
Start with a piece of cardstock of your choice and cut to 5 1/2 ” x 8 1/2″ and fold it in half. Next is a rectangle 3″ x 4 1/2″ use a punch for the bottom and go from there. What’s that I hear? You don’t have any tools to even get this far? Click on the links and take a look. Yes, some you can get at a local craft store with a coupon, but will they get online and help you out? I can always jump on Skype and show you what you need! Call me if you need help!! 801-597-4896
