Hello All Occasion Card

Hello friends!  How is everyone doing?  It has finally cooled down for now in Southern CA.  It was over 110 for several days; but the high today says it was only 81.  Wow!  What a difference.  

I create cards for my sister, Alice, that she gives to her friends with her own poems that she creates.  I also create some of the same or similar cards for me.  I have lost track of which ones are her cards and which ones are mine; but I am trying to post some of them.  I love clean and simple cards.  I love to color with Copic markers; but I also enjoy not having to color at all.    

Instructions for how to create this card:  This is an easy A2 card; which is 4.25 x 5.50 in size.  The 3 pieces are approx. 1 inch for the 2 smaller pieces and 2 inch for the bigger one in the middle.  My border piece at the top is a little over 1 x 4 inches; but you could size it whatever you wanted.  Look for something to add where the heart is at the top.  I looked for sentiments I wanted to use and then found the oval die cuts to fit the sentiment.  You can use one die or layer them as I did.  I hope you enjoy my card and use this information to create your own cards.  My instruction videos are too long, due to my arthritis in my hands.  I prefer to create them and then show them.  Lol!

CTMH is out of business now; so my part as a CTMH consultant ended April 30, 2024.  I will continue using their products for as long as I have supplies.  They are still my favorite products and I will always have a place for them in my crafting and in my heart. 

Remember - Keep On Creating!!
It's Good For Your Health!!
