As promised...

The beginning of a new month is just as refreshing as the beginning of a season. It signifies the start of something, a chance to do something different this month from the past month. It is as with every day, a new experience!
As promised, I will begin listing new items in my Etsy shop as well as on this blog and for some give a little more detail.

Take this one for example...


It was the first of my handmade paper cards that I cut and designed. This card is not yet listed in my Etsy shop, but soon. It is made from handmade 100% post consumer recycled paper. The flower petal and center is cut out of the card and lined with a pre-designed paper. Then the outside of the card and the edges of the flower are dusted with a lilac pigment ink. I used glitter and a purple rhinestone to complete this card. And as with all of MCG cards, this card is lined for a little note. I couldn't find my knife to cut it but I had the blades right there next to me, so I cut it holding the blade in my fingers, talk about determined...anyway it was cut and my fingers hurt and when I was done, I found the blade under a sheet of paper right in front of me!


Next is a set of cards that are just perfect! I wanted to keep them for myself (as most crafters and artists do!) but I know that when I feel that good about it, it must be perfect!


This set is listed in my Etsy shop now for sale. After I made the first one, it came to me that this card could be used for the Holidays as well as any other occasion being celebrated. You will find more pics in my Etsy shop. They are blank inside and lined. I can also personalize the inside greeting making it an even more perfect card.
