Handmade Cards 002

Handmade Cards 002 : Here are some handmade cards I had received from my friends all around the world.

I have boxes of these handmade cards.

Occasionally, I will take them out to admire.

Ranging from simple to the more complex cards, these are also a great source of reference for me.

Through these homemade cards, I learnt from my friends some of the many techniques of making greeting cards.

Lovely oriental postcard made by Jody Morrison. Jody embossed the stamped images on faux wood card. She then edged the card with gold marker.

Beautiful creation!

Debbie M. stamped the image and coloured it with markers. Then she glued it onto layers of brown, beige and again brown cards.

She also stamped the word “SMILE” in black on white card-stock, cut it out and attached to the bottom right of card.

The whole artwork is then attached to a plum coloured blank basic card.

A simple and clean card that will surely bring a smile to the recipient (ME!).

Thank you, Debbie, for thinking of me.

Amazing how Linda skilfully cut out these pictures of the water lilies and dragonflies and layered them on top of each other with foam tape.

She made the whole piece of artwork to stand out by attaching it to a maroon decorative crumpled paper and then attaching it to the blank basic card.

Thank you, Linda for your beautiful card.
