Making cards for the kiddos is always fun. In this video I create a Valentine card and a Birthday card in a masculine and feminine style. I used a die set from Simon Says Stamp for the checkerboard backgrounds but you could certainly cut them from strips of scrap card stock. I used the little puppy and kitty from a stamp and die set Iβve used before and added some simple watercoloring. Probably not the best cards for mass production but fun, and special, nonetheless. π (Supply list is below)

Remember, if mailing a card with layers and embellishments in the United States, be sure and buy “non-machinable” postage so your cards don’t get smooshed in the USPS postal machines.
