Cards from the Heart!

It's that time again folks!  It's time to start making cards once again starting with a few samples for my sister who will be celebrating her birthday next month!  I know it's still a long way, but like I mentioned in the opening of this blog, this one of the little things I like to do when I have nothing to do.  And right now I have some time on my hand.  How better to keep me occupied but by making some cards of my own.

I don't have any particular theme when making my cards but I thought this time, since this sister is special to me, I've decided to include some of our favourite pictures as part of the card which I imported from my Picture Files.  Of course, using on-line applications helped a lot too!

And since this sister is a special person, I decided to make two cards so that I could choose the one I feel is the best to represent my sister.  Of course, if I can't choose one, I will probably send her both the cards that I have made.  After all the cards are for her birthday!

And, oh yes, I have made these cards to fit the commercially sold envelopes because I am afraid the postal services may not send my cards to my sister if they feel that my personalized envelopes do not fit their postal standards.

Card from the Heart

Nothing beats giving someone something from the heart especially one that you made yourself.  For my son's nineteenth birthday, I made him a birthday card.  It was my first hand-made card after many, many years.  I remember the last time I made my own card was about thirty one years ago.  Evidently, that long hiatus has caused me my card- making skill.  I will have to start making more of my own cards again.  Don't be surprised if you get one from me soon!
