I just love making cards and I can make them day and night. It is great fun being surrounded by papers, glues, embellishments etc. and<\/font> putting a card together using all types of methods.  <\/font><\/p>\n

I have never been artistic, so it just shows that it ‘is never too late’ to take up a new hobby and enjoy the ongoing process of learning different methods – and, believe me, there are many.  <\/font><\/p>\n

There  are three methods of card making that suit me, namely 3d decoupage, heat embossing and tea-bag folding and most of my information comes from watching videos on the computer.  I would just love to sit and do embossing with a real person sitting with me!  I now have enough knowledge to pass on to others – and I have enough papers, tools etc. to make cards for a very long time. <\/font><\/p>\n

My cards are all one of a kind and I think that is what makes them special. <\/font><\/p>\n

To do 3d embossing you need quite a lot of patience to cut out all the pieces required for each card – but there are ways around this too -buy die-cut pictures!  (I have never seen these in Israel, but they can be bought over the internet).<\/font><\/p>\n

It is enjoyable teaching others and seeing their enjoyment when ‘their’ handcrafted card is finished.<\/font><\/p>\n

Hopefully I can meet some other people who enjoy this hobby as much as I do.<\/font> <\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
