Creative Card Making Tips:

  decorate your envelopes, punch holes in them or even use them
  to quill.

• Keep a notebook by your side, in your purse, bag or on
  your night stand to jolt down creative card ideas, tips &
  techniques you might have discovered

• I love to use black magic for vintage looks, but you can
  rip paper to give it the same look and it’s inexpensive.

• Carry your pre printed stamp images where ever you go,
  along with some colored pencils. You can always color them
  while waiting for an appt or ride.

• Make sure to use washable inkpads when doing arts with children.
  As it can get messy and stain their hands and clothes.

• Buy a pack of baby wipes to clean your rubber stamps.
  No need to go out and spend money on expensive stamp cleaners.

• When done using ink pads, always store them up side down
  to let the ink sink to the top of the pad.

More Creative Card Making Tips:
