If you're like me, you love to make hand made cards, but you hate that people throw them away. Well, I figured out a solution that makes the card both a card and a gift:
In essentials, all I did was cut some slits into the front of my card and slide the artwork in. It's quick and easy. When I posted this video on social media yesterday, I got a few questions about how to cut the slits, so I put together a quick tutorial:
What do you think? Is this an idea that you'd try out?
Thanks for stopping by!

Ever since my son entered college, I’ve been making cards for him. Collage mostly and somewhere in the card, meaningful. Sometimes funny, sometimes thoughtful. He, and his husband, recently moved from Manhattan to an 8 bedroom house on Long Island. In his bedroom, he showed me a drawer in one of his dressers. It was PACKED with all the cards that I made for him in the last 22 years. He has now started in the second dresser draw and I noticed that the latest cards are influenced by you, Gelli printing and my collage.
I appreciate your tutorials, friendly manner of presentation and giving me new ideas for my son. Thank you. gb
