Tutorials Main List

Greeting Card, ca 1900.Image via Wikipedia
When I first started out with card making a couple of years ago, I marvelled at the beautiful and creative handmade cards that people would regularly create, and I started to think there was more to card making then just cutting up and sticking down pices of coloured paper with greetings I printed out on my computer.

And so began my journey into the wonderful and incredibly jouyful world of papercrafting, rubber stamping and card making.

This post is the main list that contains the links to all my articles on this topic. Enjoy!!

A Vintage Christmas

Loving this beautiful Decoupage card. I think the vintage look is starting to grow on me, and there is nothing that says a merry traditional Christmas quite like this card.

This gorgeous vintage greeting card, was made using Anita's Victoriana Die-cut Decoupage Duos.


I love the fact that you dont have to use scissors, you can just pop it out as it is die cut! It really helps save time in your decoupage projects and handmade card making. Plus I think the poinsetta looks absolutely fab decoupaged and it doesn't get more traditional vintage christmas card images than that.


Till next time!
