Card Project

22 years ago

I am getting quite a collection of family pictures on disk and enjoy making cards with them. One idea I had was to crop out individual pictures of the subject of the card out of pictures where they are with others. It is neat how it brings out the sweet little expressions that kind of get lost in a larger picture with a lot of other people. I made another card like this one for my nieces sweet 16 birthday.

Well, that didn't work either. When I type the address directly into my address bar it works.. I wonder if GeoCities doesn't work here... anybody know?

Thanks for the great idea and directions. I will definitely give it a try. Thinking about using them for note cards, invitations, and gift tags so they can be sent out year round.

The great thing about ATC's is there is only one rule and that's the size. That is sometimes intimidating. These are a great way to experiment with new and unusual art!! I hope you decide to share your work with us I'd love to see it!! There are several galleries online, along with specialized groups just for ATC's and ATC Swaps on Yahoo. good luck, ginger

I made the purse using a homemade baseball card template and used daughters wedding pictures on it.. I could not get a good picture of it... She loved it and even used it the minute she got it... I did lace the corners instead of taping them and I also used a cloth handle. I made two like the directions said and I was not happy with the corners taped.. I made a card one and an old maid card one to carry crayons and color book and flash cards for grandbabies. I am working on another one now of pictures of the grandboys... grace

So you guys are seeing the card on this page? I can't. All I can see is a box with a red x. Maybe I have some kind of block or something?

Thanks for all the great compliments. I have used so many of your great ideas over the years hopefully I can come up with some helpful ideas too.

We just bought a new old house and most of my time is being spent on all the remodeling stuff and unpacking all the boxes. Hopefully things will slow down and I will be able to post more. All my older projects are on CD's packed in a box somewhere! GEEZE.. what a pain. LOL I will sure be glad when I have more time to spend computer crafting!

Linda, I have to check the properties of the picture, copy and paste it's address in the address bar and view the picture that way. Then when I come back here I can see it on this page. Strange, but sometimes I have to do it that way. ???
