Making cards - Ideas for a card craft beginner (part 2)

Pink.

I need inspiration....

It's my mother in laws birthday on the 26th. I'd really like to send her a homemade card but I'm having card makers block (and I'm a bit nervous in case she won't like it). I'm thinking flowers but that's as far as I've got. Does anyone have any ideas?

Die Cuts With A View have launched this ingenious range of card making kits in a stack. Each stack contains over 190 stickers, 10 printed textured cardstock cards, 10 solid textured cardstock cards, and 5 sheets of printed paper. Available in eleven themes. The folded card size is 5.5" x 5.5" (approx 14cm x 14cm)

Was £9.99, now £1

still in stock ...fill up...lol...works out to 5p a card

I've already got/used the 'thank you' and 'happy birthday' card stacks. My friend's mum bought them for me in the states and sent them to me last year. They were £8.99 each to buy in the UK at the time. Can't believe they are £1 on the artymiss website and as you say are still in stock

saveapenny - could you possibly send me the password for your album as well please, if I ask very nicely ?

saveapenny

Sent Maggie...once I get all the painting and decorating done there will be more to upload and I will try and sort it out properly as well to make it easier to find stuff. There is alot on there now and its all hard to find

Pink.

saveapenny,

I love your cards....they're amazing! :T

Thanks for the advice re MIL's card. I had a mooch around google and found this website with lovely cards: www.cardsbycarolyn.co.uk The designs are really simple but gorgeous and they have an online shop which seems very reasonable for embelishments and has some things reduced. Has anyone ever used them?
