Card sketch ideas

Ever get stumped for unique card ideas....or just need a way to start?  Try this site Card sketches at Witty Living to get different ideas for your cards...  Each idea is set up for you to create exactly as the sketch is, or twist it a bit and do something different to it.  Just because they have circle embellishments on the page, doesn't mean you can't use a square shape instead!  

  
This card was originally created by a sketch...I used paper that I loved and had just a little bit left of, and didn't use on another project...  I then took a simple daisy punch, and placed a brad in the middle of it.  This type of card can be recreated using just about any paper or shape that you have available. 

Make a quick card when you are making a layout, or other project...  Keep them stashed away in a shoe box that you have altered, or some other type of item!   Card making is really easy, using a few basic stamps with a few ink pads!   Check out your local craft stores to be able to purchase cards and envelopes that are ready to fold and create! 

I started out making cards...and then started making scrapbooks.  Cards are very easy to make, being able to customize for each person you give them to.  Start out making a few cards, using some of the sketches shown in the link above.  Or, you can go to this blog I found, that will give you 365 sketches and examples too!  Check out http://cardsketchaday.blogspot.com/ for her ideas...
