Handmade Greeting Cards

I am a TOTAL paper addict and no matter how many greeting cards I already have in my 'collection', I am always searching for more to add it. When I was a child, about 7–10 years-old, I used to collect stationary and exchange it at school with my girlfriends, kind of a hobby. I had this huge plastic binder I could barely carry under my arms, filled with all kinds of cards and paper goods, and whatever I was, the binder was there -isn't that cute?! I used to love to show it off to my friends and whoever asked me to see it. So precious~

Anyway, below are some of my favorite handmade cards for the day and I would like to share it with you. Enjoy~

I love your blog. The cards are great. I am working on my studio, thanks for the ideas. It seems to be an overwhelming task. I can't keep it clean long enough to paint!!

Thanks for the inspiration, Tonia
