Card Making

I think this week, I'll go through some of my various hobbies that I have briefly mentioned in passing. For example, in my Spoonflower post, I mentioned that I had originally signed up for the beta for card making.

It was my youngest first cousin once removed's birthday last week. He turned five! In addition to his presents, I made him a cute little card (none of which I've managed to get out in the mail yet -- oops!). It's not the most elaborate card I've made, but it's certainly cute I think!

Most of my papers and envelopes I buy from my favorite store in all of NYC, Kate's Paperie. Every time I go to NYC, I try to stop by and buy pounds and pounds of paper. I get all my stickes from Michael's, and sometimes some paper from there as well. In the past, I have even made my own paper (usually out of tissue paper), but it's probably been over a decade since I've done so.
