My You’re a Lifesaver Thank You card was an idea born out of a VBS decoration that I had made. The theme last year was “Under the Sea” and our classroom was the inside of the submarine. I made life rings out of paper plates, red construction paper, and twine. I thought it would make a great Thank You card, so I set about creating one to enter into the fair. Here is what I came up with – a simple to make, nautical themed thank you card that is perfect for everyone! (more…)
Check out this super cute retro camper birthday card! A friend of mine at work camps and when I was in search of a birthday card to enter in the fair, I stumbled across a camper card and decided to create something similar. I have always loved those retro, teal campers so I knew the color scheme would be perfect on the card. However, choose colors that your recipient loves to make it even more special! (more…)

My dad was a mechanic and loved cars his entire life. I am sure he would have loved to receive this Father’s Day Card for Car Lovers!

What are ATCs? Have you ever wondered? ATCs are also referred to as Artist Trading Cards. I have seen mention of these before and have found “ATC cards” at the scrapbook store but had no idea what they were. Recently, I joined a website dedicated to snail mail – from postcards to letters to small crafts. I came across a beginner’s ATC swap and thought I’d try my hand at them. For all you scrapbookers and cardmakers… they are literally just miniature scrapbook pages! I am addicted to them! The best part is, you can easily make them with your “scraps” from scrapbooking and other crafts! Keep reading to learn more and see some examples I have made!
