I also recently discovered a great way to store my cards until I give them away. I have a Cropper Hopper picture storage container that I purchased years ago but never got around to using. It has worked wonderfully to store my delicate cards. It is one large box with 32 individual 4"X6" containers that I can put at least 2 embellished cards in back to back without fear of them getting squashed. I thought I had come up with a new idea but soon learned I was not the first to come up with this idea. ;-) I did learn that others have even used a similar item to store their wood mounted stamps. I don't know if the Cropper Hopper brand is still available but there are others out there such as IRIS brand carried by Joann's, Hobby Lobby and Walmart.
Now to get to my latest cards.
Here are a few masculine cards:
My favorite is the cowboy boot.
I needed a sympathy card recently and these are what I came up with:
With Mother's Day, graduation, and a wedding soon approaching, I made the following:
My daughter thought that it would be fun to make a couple of baby cards, so here they are:
Here is a thank you card I made for a friend who trimmed our dog for nothing:
Birthday Card:
I hope to have time to make more soon. Although, we need to work on Mother's Day gifts for my mom. We were thinking about make yoyo sachets and square glass candle holders from the Dollar Tree with my kids' pictures printed on vellum and glued to the outside with a flameless tea light inside. If these materialize, I'll post pictures. :-)
