How much do you spend on Birthday and Special Occasion cards?
My Mother in law mentioned to me a couple months ago that she spent $35 on 5 cards. REALLY!!??
So I started making my own cards for Mother's day, Father's day and Birthdays because I refuse to pay $5, $6 or even $7.95 per card. By making my own cards I can get as creative and personal as I want and not have to settle for a cute card with the wrong saying or the perfect card at a high price.
Card kits can be found at Michael's or Joann's at a great price and if you use a coupon they're a steal. Add a few embellishments, a stamp, a sentiment and/or a personal message and you're done!
