Random Cards...

A fellow card maker, Dolores, made a similar card like this a several weeks ago and I asked for the directions. Here's what she shared... 

Take scraps of paper that are 3.5" long and cut at an angle (don't measure). Cut your coordinating cardstock 3" x 5". Start at one edge, glue your first piece down. When you glue the next piece, leave a space. If you had the wider side at the top, put it at the bottom this time. Continue across and don't worry about overhang. When the bottom cardstock is full, trim the edges. Cut one inch off the long side. You'll now have two pieces, one is 1" x 5" and the other is 2" x 5". Assemble your card as it appears above.

This card went postal on June 1st...

This card was made for Christopher for his 20th birthday. I was CASEing my own creation from January 2nd which was in red's. I made three more LIKE this which are on my Instagram post of 6-17-20. On those, I added a circular birthday die under the straight white one. Looks cool...

This was my Father's Day card, put together quickly because the day snuck up on me...

Sent as a thank you for the Designer Series paper I received from Wilda on June 15th...

So, here it is, two months later and I'm back to edit and publish this post. HOWEVER, it appears there's been a change at Blogger that is not as user friendly as the previous version. If that is the case, this may be my last blog post. This makes me sad since I've used this as a diary of most of my card making escapades since December of 2011. For some, change is good. For me, not so much...

  1. Beautiful cards, hope you had fun with the scrappy strip card. It turned really neat, love the sentiment too. Hope you got Blogger figured out, I gave up on my blog long ago.

  2. Just looking at the strip card and directions, I want to do it again. It was fun. Blogger? Who knows yet...
