Cards and Tags Thursday












I have never been much of a card maker, maybe because I'm a terrible stamper and "most" cards have stamped sentiments. 
But I am learning to use the stickers and papers I have and I am really starting to like it. 
Cards are like little pieces of paper crafting fun!  And I wouldn't be here if I didn't love paper crafting!  
I still don't make up the cards ahead of time, mainly they are made just for special occasions.  
Here are a few I've put together for you today.


 "Happy Trails" - Goodbye Card
Simple Stories "Take a Hike" papers and cardstock stickers
Other: solid cardstock, twine, ink and a cloud punch

"Spread Your Wings and Fly!" - Off to College Card
 My Mind's Eye "The Sweetest Thing" papers
Simple Stories "Vintage Bliss" chipboard stickers and cardstock stickers
Bo Bunny Doily& Maya Road Vintage Wood Mini Butterfly
Other: ink and twine

"You are Such an Amazing Friend" Card
Teresa Collins "Memories" & Dear Lizzy Lucky Charm papers
Bo Bunny Doily, Fancy Pants "The Good Life" stickers and heart button & 
Simple Stories "24/Seven" cardstock sticker
Fancy Pants "Memories Captured" Ephemera 
Other: twine and buttons

Once again, I hope you have enjoyed the cards I've shared with you.  
I know I enjoyed making them! 


See you again next week.
Amanda
