Description

Don’t think of another birthday as getting older, think of it as becoming vintage, like this card. The vintage queen bee birthday card uses brown toned layered stamps and sepia blended ink to create a vintage background hosting the queen bee. Pretty single flowers scattered about, soft pink elements and the typeface of the sentiment all complete the vintage vibe.

The Joy of Giving Beautiful Handmade Cards

I love getting snail mail. A handmade card in the mail is a special treat these days, don’t you think? Not only are they unique, they’re a cute and thoughtful way to let someone know you are thinking about them. You took time to make it or you took time to find just the right one. And during this time your thoughts are on the recipient.  Handmade greeting cards bring a lot of joy to the maker, the giver and the receiver. Vintage is a real passion and I’m sure you know a vintage lover who would really appreciate this card.

My Card Shop has plenty of handmade greeting cards whether you want to stock up on some general cards to keep on hand or you’re looking for the perfect one for someone special.

Me time

Now and then we all need a little time to ourselves to simply wind down. Paper crafting is a great way to relieve stress by focusing your attention on a crafty project. Once you have completed it, the feeling of satisfaction is very rewarding too!

I hold classes around Auckland and at my home in Aka Aka, no experience is necessary and you will create 3 handmade cards. At 2.5 hours each class is an opportunity to unwind, chat and create cards as well as friendships. I have a similar card that was a recent contribution to a tutorial bundle, view my other card.
