Welcome to our World Card Making Day celebration! Today is all about card making, sharing, and inspiration. There's just something special about giving and receiving a handmade card, whether for a holiday, special occasion, or "just because". We hope you'll hang out with us all day long, as we share new cards every hour for fourteen hours straight. There might even be a few giveaways mixed into the day, so keep your eye out for them ... in fact, there might be one happening at the end of this post ;)
“No Place Like Home” card, by Shellye McDaniel.
For this card I wanted to utilize the Designer Tape, but I also wanted a scalloped edge, so I grabbed the decorative edged scissors and set to work. In keeping with the warm, fall feeling of the card, I added the two wooden buttons. No one has to know that there are snowflakes on the other side of that wood button :) A simple zig-zag stitch from my sewing machine completes the cozy and inviting card.
Supplies:
Thankful: Our Spot, Burlap, Cute Cuts, Alpha+Bits Stickers, Ciao Chip Icons; Designer Tape: Pickle Juice Chevron; Button Market: Snowflakes (reverse)
"Happy Thanksgiving” card, by Malika Kelly.
I love the chevron trend right now so I used my Cameo to cut a small chevron pattern to give the background of my card some interest. I dressed up the chipboard house by adding some glossy accents to the windows. The Happy Thanksgiving sentiment was cut from the borders paper, I simply snipped the end to make it like a flag. Then I added another flag from the Thankful collection to finish off my card.
Supplies:
Thankful: Bountiful, Perfect Day, Borders, Chipboard Icons; Flags: Thankful 1
