And here is Part 2 - Let me give you a heads up!  This one is tough - lots of thinking, wiggling of the fingers and slightly different outcomes than expected! LOL...

Hello Everyone!

Episode 2 in my Simplicity in Card Making Series!

Today let's look at how we can use our paper pads to create our own interactive card!  Whether it is a 6 x 6 or a 12 x 12 paper pad, they most likely include a focal point page where it is a saying or even a scene...  Why not turn those pages into a puzzle!

Your puzzle can be packaged up and placed inside your card so your recipient can create your sentiment!  Watch the video below to see just how easy it is to create another beautiful card just using your paper pad and basic supplies!

Hello Everyone!

Sorry I have been away for awhile, but as we all know life tends to get in the way of what we enjoy sometimes!  But all is better and I am hopefully back on a normal schedule!

Anywho, I have decided to start a series called 'Simplicity in Card Making'... In this series I will go over how to use up that stack of pattern paper we have all horded over the years.  ...and yes this includes both the 6 x 6 and the 12 x 12 papers!

This is the first, in what I hope to be MANY more videos!
