QUICK TIP

Do you struggle making the messy swirls of twine?  I do!  Struggle no more.

For this card I wrapped the twine around three times and tie it in a knot around posts I have for a handmade bow maker. Remove and spread out the layers and adhere it to your card.

Tic Tac Toe Trio

Make a card quickly and without stamps and inks and use up your scraps of beautiful paper.

When gifting cards I often allow the recipient to choose a sentiment.  In a package of three cards, I give them a choice of Get Well Soon, Happy Birthday, Praying for You, Thank You and Thinking of You.  I usually give an extra Thank You and Thinking of You sentiments. I make the sentiments up ahead of time by using my Crafts by Beth CPP Sentiments.  Copy, Print and Punch.  Click HERE for more information. I also include a business card stating how to use them.  For the business card information, see below.
