Never Say Never

If you had asked me a few years (or even months) ago if I would ever make cards I would have said never. And guess what I did in the past few weeks? I made about 10 birthday cards. A few girls at the Dolls & Decorations message board suggested to set up a birthday list. Everyone could join the list. The only criteria was that you have to send a birthday card to each member, and of course you get lots of cards in return. I was a bit naive to think I could just buy a card and send it. I soon found out that you had to make your own cards. Well, that was quite a surprise for someone who always said that card making was dull and not my cup of tea. But.....I now have to admit that I enjoy doing it. I am not very good at it yet, and not always satisfied with the result, but it is a start. I think a handmade card is much more appreciated. Do you agree?

Wow, Ingrid hoe kun je nu beweren dat je er niet goed in bent. Hoe moeten die kaarten nu nog beter worden?

Via Two Peas kwam ik op je blog terecht en je kaarten vielen me gelijk op. Schitterend, jammer dat ik pas in augustus jarig ben. LOL
