Card Making Ideas - Why Card Making

By Dan Lennart

It seems that all my friends and relatives have their birthdays in a row with November as a busiest month. Nevermind the Christmas! With Easter rapidly advancing and my money running low, this is when card making ideas started to come to my mind. I thought that self made greeting card is a great way to express your creativity and thoughts for family and friends.
Handmade cards are so special. After all, what makes a more beautiful keepsake than a beautifully personalised handmade greeting card?

You can literally make a bespoke greeting card for every occasion! It's easy to personalize your handmade cards with a name, a nickname or a personal bit of information about the recipient. You can incorporate their favorite hobby or interests in your handmade card design.
In today's world of mass-marketing, you can certainly expect your handmade cards to stand out from the rest. For the person that receives your cards, it means something more. They know you've put that extra thought and time into it.

Many people have been known to even frame the hand made cards they receive because of the thought and time that has gone into creating it!

In fact, don't be surprised if your handmade cards become a talking point... making handmade cards

As I started to create greeting cards, I discovered that card making can be very fun, satisfying and even addictive! Once you start to make them, you will tend to create more and more. You'll naturally start to look for card making ideas and techniques.

I'm a technical person, so I always wondered where people take all these creative ideas from. And as a technical person I had to organize all information, advises, ideas and guides I had.
And then I thought, why not share this with other people who may be also interested in making greeting cards for friends, relatives, or maybe even for profit.
