Well, ages ago now I made thse cards for my calligraphy class (years 7/ and 8, about 14 yrs) to write their verse by hand inside with a verse for their dads for fathers day. Ours is the first Sunday in Sept here.

This image is embossed, coloured with Promarkers and is a discontinued SU set.

Same stamp, labels 8 fancy dies - hand cut to frame it - embossing folder is Bubble from CB.
+(688x800).jpg)
Same as above, script embossing folder from CB.
+(800x600).jpg)
This is same folder as top one (Sorry - cant remember the name of it) have hand cut around frame, to mount it up on DP (Kaisercraft I think).

Gracie's frame embossing folder, the printed image and verse is from an old calendar and re-sized.

Same as above.
The children did very well they chose one the little poems I had brought along and wrote in their own hand the verses - they really surprised themselves - it is was a great blessing!
If you want to see more of their work from the calligraphy lessons look on this post here and here.

Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
What a wonderful assortment of beautiful cards using so many of the different CB EF's, and making each card look unique & special. I can just imagine how very proud those children were of these lovelies. Thanks for the amazing sunset. So very awesome & what wonders we are blessed with, if we just take time to see. Merry Christmas and tfs. Many Hugs, and here's to a healthy New Year as well.

Thank you for your visit this week. I am so late replying as I have just got stuck in and finished all my cards. I think the cost of postage is gradually killing off the sending of cards these days, which is very sad really. Although it is good to keep in touch digitally, it is still nice to receive something you can actually hold in your hand, something that your friends have taken time to create for you. Hope you have a good Christmas. xx Maggie
ReplyDeleteHi Shaz
