Make A Card | From The Desk Of My Cat

As I said last week, this year I’m going to make more cards and give them to people.  I love that I can just sit down for 20-30 minutes and make something, without having to find photos and print them.  I’m really digging this cardmaking thing on a regular basis!  I’m naming this series on my blog “MAC” for “Make A Card”.  Which, I suppose, makes it sort of a series on my blog.  :-)

This simple Thanks card looked easy enough, but it took longer than I thought to make it.  Probably because the alpha stamps I used doesn’t have corresponding dies, so I had to fussy-cut the letters out by hand after coloring them in.
