Found my Cardmaking Mojo

Monday 20 August 2007 - - 1 Comments

Well for some time now i have not really made a Card, Done plenty of Dominoes, LO's ( Scrapbook pages ) and Atc's and much more ....

But as for Cardmaking it seems to have taken a step back! which is a bit annoying & at the same time upsetting as Cardmaking really is my 1st love, But for some reason or other i lost my love & mojo for making them, it seemed to turn into a chore...

Well recently i brought lots of goodies to make Toppers with , i've thought if i make the toppers and keep them in boxes in there themes, Ie Christmas, Boys Birthdays , Girls, Weddings etc...
When i come to needing a card if i don't have a suitable one already made in my box , I could simply chose a topper & a card blank and then make the card which will take me at the very top & i say very top 30minutes!
I feel that this system is alot better than staring blank at a Cardstock - And wondering where to start ? What to do ? How to do it?

Now all i have to do is start making all the lovely toppers - Which strangely enough i seem to love doing?

Here is a card i made late last night before i went to bed , using the Topper method ( well i had to make the topper first as i don't have any made yet! )



I decided from now all instead of stamping onto a bit of paper or a preprinted " Inside Reads" Card - I will stamp the inside images onto Super Large Tags, Which you can then see what the greeting inside reads but also you receive a Free matching Gift Tag when the card is brought!
