The Tyranny That Is Card Making

In Shimelle's guide A Year Of Blogging, she suggests for today sharing a handmade card or two. When I read that, my heart sank! I think I'm one of the worst card makers there has probably ever been ... and still, every now and again, I feel compelled to try and overcome my fear. Thank you cards for birthday presents received by DS is behind today's attempt ... but at least I used the sewing machine!

Hi Ruth, sorry I am so late but I want to thank you for the lovely little notebook you sent me. It is gorgeaous and so right for my granddaughter. She loves hearts and pink. I will make a picture and show it on pink Saturday.
Thanks again

But Ruth, they're *lovely* :-) You're so talented at making mini-books - cards really aren't so different! And as these prove, you CAN do it xx

Ruth, these cards are lovely! I struggle with them as well .... they need to say so much in a small space - it is a challenge ;-)

They're great and at least you've made some!! Being back at work doesn't work with scrapping very well.
