From the heart


I have always felt that handmade cards carried a message stronger than any words I could write on the inside.  No matter how simply made, a handmade card says "I cared enough to make one especially for you."  Thank you cards and "just because" cards are the most fun to make, at least to me.  These cards are where you can let go and let your creativity shine.  Try something new . . . try wacky colors!  Sympathy cards are the most difficult to make, but a handmade card says it is from my  heart . . . and that is what counts.

This is a card I enjoy making for my teacher friends.  It reminds us just to kick it up and dance sometimes.  Stamp by The Angel Company.
