Hi Everyone! I attempted one card art exchange unsuccessfully. It was then cancelled for the summer, and my interest in it went wild. So I got some tools and learned a few things and am back. I haven't joined yet, but thought it might be fun to exchange some ideas with others here, and see how others view the craft. These are the first two cards I have put together this month. They are for my adult children's birthdays. It would be great to share some creations here. I see a lot of stunning Tags on pinterest too that provide inspiration too. Looking forward to hearing from you but! You don't have to post pictures to join the conversation. Welcome!

Beautiful cards. There are several swaps throughout the year on the forum here. Christmas card, Valentine card exchanges---all fun. and other seasonal or birthday card exchanges. so it is a lot of fun. Keep looking at the 'swap' category. Enjoy, MB

I like to make cards too. I love your cards, especially the rose one. Pinterest and Split coast stampers are my favorite sites to get ideas.

Your cards are gorgeous!
I'm a papercrafter too . . . making cards, tags, ATCs, journals . . .
It's all been on hold for a bit because of glamping season and I'm up to my earlobes in making aprons that I sell at Farmers Market and on my Facebook page.

Yes Cozy, pinterest is also where the tradition of exchanging ... Still exists. I have found sites that have tons of illustrations and such available and easy to download. Cee Jay I Love, Love, Love your aprons! Looks like many people do too! You seem to have a very wonderful life. So happy to get to know everyone here, too! :)

Hi Christen,
I love your cards. Simply stunning! I make cards for my family for holidays and family events. Have also done some for the neighbors. There usually are card exchanges going on here too. I was for a Christmas card exchange one year and it was wonderful. I too love seeing all the cards on Pinterest. Fuel for ideas and it's nice to see how some folks do various techniques. I don't have many punches or stamps but continue to buy a little at a time. I also use my paint shop pro program to create digistamps I can use and print off my computer. I love how creative you can get making your own cards.

Happy farmgirl sister #353

I was on Pinterest this morning gathering ideas for cards and journal making. I love the creativity of people. Pinterest is a dangerous place, I can spend hours on there.

I'm a new farmgirl and this seems like the perfect spot for me to post my very first post. :) I'm a card-making fanatic and would be delighted to exchange hand-made cards anytime with anyone who wishes to exchange mailing addresses with me. You can see samples of my cards on my blog (listed below in my signature)--Best, Barbara
