Card Drive Cards

 Hi all!

Today I thought I'd show you some more of the

Christmas cards I made for the

Caring Hearts Card Drive.

You can find all the information about this

wonderful drive on 

Vera Yates Blog

All the cards from this drive are sent to 

residents of nursing homes and senior care facilities.

I made several of the same cards.

Once the stamps are set up in my

MISTI stamping tool, it is simple 

to make several at one time.

I was inspired by Julia Altermann

to make this card.

Here is the card that inspired me.

I set up the stamps on my MISTI,

then removed the star stamp.

I stamped all the sentiments with 

VersaFine Onyx Black Ink

I then re-positioned the star stamp,

removed the other stamps and

stamped the stars with 

VersaMark Ink

and heat embossed them with 

WOW Gold Sparkle Powder

I glued a few small star sequins

around  for a little more sparkle and

tied "bakers twine"

that I made, around the panel and

tied a bow to finish it off.  

See how I made it on 

this post

I accidentally got some black ink smudges

on this panel, but went with my motto

"There are no mistakes in crafting,

only opportunities to be more creative"

and I cut the panel down, adhered it to the

card front and added a bow at the top.

It's a little different than the others, but just

as nice, don't ya think?

Thanks for stopping in.

I hope you've been inspired in some way

and I hope you'll join in the

Caring Hearts Card Drive

and help bring smiles to the faces

of some of our seniors.

Until next time,

have some fun crafting!
