Over the last few days I have shown you some cards that have been made FOR me and not by me. Because I make cards I find that at Birthdays and Christmas time people won't make and send me cards because they don't make them like I do.
It wouldn't do for us all to make cards the same and the simple fact that it is handmade by YOU makes it super special to those that you give them too. Give the cards that you make with love and be proud of them.
Earlier this year I started a Card Class in my own home and most Wednesdays we have met and made cards. I regularly post on these pages the cards that my two lovely ladies make.
Here are the ones that they have made in their own homes and gave to me at the last class for this year.
More tomorrow ...

ReplyDeleteI also make cards & find that some of my friends, but mostly my family, are also afraid to send me cards for the same reasons. It is such a shame that by others feel so intimidated by our creations. I encourage all to make cards if you are so inclined, no matter your style. They are lovely, each & every one!
ReplyDeleteThese cards are awesome. The ladies were taught well. Gwen Giles
ReplyDeleteLovely cards by your card class ladies, nice to know that they are making them on their own as well. Lucky you to have such good friends. Happy Holidays to Mary and Brenda.
ReplyDeleteBravo Mary and Brenda, your cards are A1! I'm sure Christina is over the moon with her pupils.
ReplyDeleteWishing you all a really lovely Christmas and a bright and cheerful New Year.
