Making Some Special Cards

 I've had a card-making kit lying around for several years now (I know--embarassing!), and there was always one reason or another not to make the cards.  But I finally did!  They combine quilting and cards--what could be better!?!

Here are the results--all heart cards.  The kit included the cards with the cutouts.  I supplied everything  that is not paper!  




The instructions said to layer fabric, batting, and a piece of paper, then to zig-zag them to the cards.  Here you can see the back of one card, after I have removed the paper and cut the excess fabric/batting away.



And in this photo you can see that the cards have two folds in them, so one side gets glued over the messy back-side of the pretty hearts.



I chose the fabrics and accessories, and I couldn't be happier with my new cards!
