Cards

I've recently decided that to buying cards is expensive and I really like to send cards for special occasions. I have a stack of papers that I bought at JoAnnes with my 50% off coupon and have other scrapbooking items that are not being used because I never have the time and patience to go through pictures to make one.  So I've decided to use all these things to make my own cards.  Some occasions I still buy cards from the store; usually because I can't think of anything creative to do, but I'm really trying to think of new ideas.  So here are some of the cards I've made.  Two are mother's day cards and the other one I made to give to a couple that just had a baby that live down the street from us.  All items like I said came from the "Stack of Paper" books that you can buy from JoAnnes.  The flowers I got in a scrapbooking kit that I received for Christmas.  This is a beginner's cards so don't look to close!
