Designing And Making Cards

A handmade card is a work of art that expresses how you feel about someone. Their joy in receiving such a personal card will be matched only by the pleasure you take in making it. Techniques like paper modeling and collage, rubber stamping, and splattering are easy to learn, but when you apply them in different combinations to craft motifs and decorative backgrounds on ten projects (or your own designs), you'll get some great effects. Send cards for all occasions! Birthday Balloon is also a perfect way to wish a friend a bon voyage, and Heart for a Sweetheart is appropriate on Valentine's Day or an anniversary.
