WCMD

If you're a crafter, especially a card maker, you know what yesterday was.  Yep, World Cardmaking Day. Here is how World Card Making Day started, if you're interested. It usually helps us to get started on those holiday cards and a good time to make cards for causes like Operation Write Home.  There are many other causes that accept cards too.  Click here to see what other places you can Craft It Forward. If you do not make cards or crafts you can always donate money to said organization. I know envelopes are needed at OWH.  Well enough about that. Onto the cards I made yesterday.  Not only is it fun and relaxing to create, but a lot of challenges offer chances to win more goodies to make more cards. :)




I challenged myself to make a Z fold card. I had previously watched a YouTube video, or two or three, a couple of weeks ago.  I decided to google it again yesterday and found simple instructions here.

Here are my cards:
This first card I used Tim Holtz Core'dinations cardstock, K&Co Brenda Walton Flora and Fauna and Cornish Heritage Farms What Cancer Cannot Do stamp.  This will be entered in Core'dinations WCMD challenge.

I hope you were able to create yesterday. If you were not able to, then today is always another chance. Smiles.  Thanks for taking time to stop by and see what I've been up to.  Hope you have a great week!!
