Last night

Last night after Mom's Birthday BBQ I brought out my cuttlebug machine to show people how I made the Birthday card. My niece Alexis and my nephew John wanted to make cards for their friends. So we picked out paper and what embossing plates to use. Alexis made a birthday card for her friend Emily. We embossed her card out of green paper with the circle embossing folder. John used the same embossing folder that I used for my mom's birthday card, but he used pink paper. We stuck white paper on the inside so they could write little messages to their friends. Then they each decided that they wanted to emboss their envelopes. We used my Fiskars embossing plates for those. John chose little animal footprints and Alexis chose one called 'rug'. Their friends will enjoy them. I wish I had pictures of their cards. I love doing crafts, especially with others. That was fun for me to see them have fun. :-)
