Personalising cards

Back in June I took some cards I had already made and stepped them up to personalise them for my niece and her son my great nephew… so I thought I would share these on my blog to show how I do this.

I made this card some time ago using my the gorgeous florals from the lovely Altenew florals but added a different sentiment.

I chose to add the foiled cardstock sentiment die cut and then a foiled die cut sentiment strip. Next I die cut and stacked the 30 from a coordinating colour foiled cardstock and added that on top.

This made the card really special and perfect for her 30th birthday!

Next up I went with one of the cards I made using the Cards by Kendra challenge and the Pet Collection kit and turned this into a fun card just for Henry.

Firstly I went with a large die cut 2 from the foiled cardstock. Then I added the die cut letters for his name and added the glitter glue to them to make them sparkly!

Really pleased with how this came out too!

I make so many cards with no purpose in mind – I create because I enjoy creating – but it was good to have these then become something very special for my niece and great nephew.

Happy crafting!
