Card making!

Hello everybody!
This post is about one of my hobbies! You can guess from the title that it's about card making.
I love giving handmade cards to the ones I love. I just find it more personal and unique than buying one. I like spending time thinking about what kind of card would suit to each person. What kind of shapes, colors and patterns I should use to make a card that would be perfect for the person I will give it to. So I wanted to share some of my latest creations and give you maybe some inspiration to start making your own homemade cards!

This is a card I made for my sweet valentine (obviously!).

Father's day.

 Anniversary card.

A card for a friend's sweet baby girl.

A birthday card.

Easter card.

Christmas card.
There are a lot of YouTube channels about handmade cards where you can find tutorials and get some inspiration. My favorite is this one! You can find so many beautiful ideas there.
If you do make a card please send me a picture! I would love to see it and post it on my blog!
Thank you all for stopping by!

      Sure you can! Start by choosing cardstock with beautiful colors and patterns that you love and put together a simple card with a beautiful sticker on it. And that's it! Your first homemade card would be ready!
