Craft Ahead, Worry Behind – Hello
Finding an unexpected card in my mailbox amidst bills, catalogs, and junk mail always makes my heart race with excitement! It’s nice to know that someone is thinking of me just because. In 2016, I want to send hearts aflutter with random greetings. I challenge YOU to do the same! And to get you started, we’re sharing inspiring card ideas to say hello today.
Each day this week we will be sharing some of MFT’s greatest hits based on card themes that you use the most often — thank you, celebrations, get well, sympathy, encouragement, hello, and birthday cards. Pin the ones that you love on your Pinterest boards and then once things settle down a bit, use these cards as inspiration to get your stash well-stocked for the year. Won’t that be a great feeling?While you’re at it, be sure to follow My Favorite Things on Pinterest so that you won’t miss one fantastic project, tutorial, or video!
Here are 8 ideas for making hello cards that you can pin for later inspiration! Below each individual photo, you will find a direct link to the original post of the card if you are interested in products and/or techniques.
