Mary Jane Lee put this idea in my head today when I was looking at her site. I made a few of these a few years ago but forgot about how much fun it is. Anyway I made three today. Just have to figure out what to do with the inside of the cards.The ones I made today have glitter on them, and on me and on the table and on the floor. So the next ones I make I will be using something else.Anyway check out her site she has all the info on the free pictures you can print off. Thank you MARY JANE LEE.

Welcome Nancy Jo! You just got right to it girl! They turned out great! There is NOTHING you can't do!!! Oh Nancy Jo, the kind of glue I use is a liquid glue. You can get it at Walmart, JoAnn's & Michaels.
It takes a little time to dry but looks pretty and stays on the paper.

Hugs,

I like making cards and whenever I send anyone anything I enclose a homemade card. Yours are super, Nancy Jo. Remember the ones we made a few years back. Keep it up. MB

I love homemade cards. I am going to be making my own Christmas cards this year even though I have never made a card in my life. But I scrapbook so I have some place to start from.

Great minds think alike...I have started making cards but that's where the similarity ends! Ha! Ha! Yours are beautiful! i didn't think of getting images...I was cutting things from magazines...DUH!?!? Nancy Jo yours are gorgeous and then I checked out Maryjane's blog site and OH MY!!!! How lovely! The cards and the mantel decorations and lights...WOW! Impressive and so cozy! I will post my cards when I am done but I don't think they are going to be quite as professional as you guys but it is fun regardless!

Wonderful! I just love little crafts like these that you can make at the spur of the moment. They don't take much time or material and you wind up with a unique gift. Thanks for sharing!
