Inspiration - Greeting Card DreamScape

Creating Greeting Cards can be a wonderful activity to combine design talents with written word, poetry, or simply tender messages.

Creating Greeting Cards

Creating Greeting Cards is a wonderful craft that can nurture your creativity. Making the cards electronically, by hand, or a combination of techniques can give you wonderful results.

You can create the card design and the poetry yourself, or purchase blank cards (designs on outside-blank on inside), or purchase cards with poetry that you create the design.

If designs are your passion, and you are not going to be as enthusiastic about writing, blank cards are very popular as well.

We will explore what kind of supplies you might need for a variety of applications.

First,
Here are some Cards from Whimsy Art Cards on EBay. Inspiring creations!

Card Making Supplies

Would you like to design the cover and create the greeting as well?

The primary supply item you will need to create a greeting card is the card stock. Recently I discovered an exceptional resource to purchase paper made from sustainable resources. No trees were harmed to make these beautiful papers and you may be surprised what the primary ingredients are.

The following is an excerpt from EcoPaper.Com

EcoPaper.Com aka Costa Rica Natural makes the finest eco friendly journals and tree free paper. We have Banana Paper Journals, Tree Free Paper Reams & More. One ton of our fiber saves an estimated 17 trees.
