Did you see my announcement on Thursday about our Free Fight Like A Girl Printable Journaling and Card Making kit? If you missed it, click here!
Today I've got some more card inspiration using this fun FREE Printable kit. My first card uses one of my favorite "go to" stamp sets - Bouquet of Love. This stamp set is perfect for so many occasions and I've given LOTS of cards... so many that I need to be careful that I'm not giving the same card to the same people. hahaha
For this card, I simply cut out the sentiment from one of the 3" x 4" cards and added it as the sentiment. Easy Peasy! A little Toffee Twine adds a nice finishing touch.
This set combines two of the journaling cards in the kit. I first stamped YOU ARE from a stamp in the Fierce stamp set - another favorite! It was easy to get perfect placement with my stamp positioner. Do you use one? It's my most trusted tool and never far from my crafting space.
I love the effect of the Ribbon die cut from the paint chip journaling card.
This next card is for one of my daughters who has been working super hard to prep for the SAT test that is happening TODAY. Life can be so challenging at times but she ALWAYS pushes herself past her fears and struggles to make good stuff happen. And, she's always kind and supportive to her friends and fellow classmates - even getting up extra-early this morning to drive another student to the test. Please send your positive test vibes to her!
The Label Maker stamp set gets a LOT of use around here! This card took about 3 minutes from start to finish but I know my daughter is going to LOVE it!
This set is so fun for cardmaking and scrapbooking. Grab it while you can... it's only free for the month of October!
The kit includes SIX 3" x 4" cards and comes as an easy to print PDF file.

The thing I like the most about card making is giving away something I made myself, I think it truly means something for the one that receives the card. Sorry for my bad frenchie English....

There are two things I love about card making.
The first is that I get a chance to use my
creativity for something important.
The second is that I can give my friends
and family something that I've made and
tailored to their particular interests.
Card making is an excellent way to fulfill
both of those goals.
thanks for sharing.

I'm already signed up for the newsletter; I like stamping because I can see results of creativity in an hour, whereas other crafts such as quilting or crocheting might take weeks. Sending homemade cards also keeps me in touch with friends. My friend Anita shares my live of Amuse
