Have you tried sewing through card? How did it work for you?
Love these. Thank you 🎉
Something to keep in mind for anyone planning to mail these in the US... It takes more postage to mail a square envelope than a rectangular one (that is within the dimensions for first class mail). If someone is looking to buy cards for this project and a rectangular card suits them as well as a square one, they might want to go that direction. The post office usually has a stamp specially for square envelopes or one could just put two Forever stamps on it, which would be overpaying but it's convenient.
I make fabric postcards, everyone I send them to love them. Thanks for sharing making cards,
Love this idea. I have lots of holiday themed fabric scraps, so I'm thinking Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and Valentine cards. 😊
They look gorgeous ❤
Thanks!
Love it! Great idea!
I have used the brown packing paper from Amazon to make wrapping paper! Yes have used my sewing machine. I used metallic thread to make it really pop!
Please do more videos with the cards❤❤😊😊
Great idea!
Thank you for sharing this! Love it.
THANKS❤
I had not thought of using fabric to make Christmas cards, or birthday card, or new baby cards, etc. I am so excited!! Thank you!!!
Yeah! Glad you like it!
These are so lovely and charming. I used to make a lot of cards with stamps but now I sew instead. However, you have inspired me to make a few cards. I used to stitch a lot on my cards and never had a problem. I would love to see how you made the little (log cabin?) card and more scrappy card videos would be very welcome.
The little log cabin was a paper pieced log cabin block. It was just leftover in my orphan block box!
This looks like so much fun! ❤
Keep it simple and they spectacular. I use the photo cards and insert orphan blocks - your idea is so much easier❤
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Great video will give it a go thankyou🎉
Awesome ideas. I will definitely make some! I can see how they can become addictive.
Yes they are very fun and quick - always a recipe for getting hooked!
These are lovely!! I’m so excited to try some. My mom was good at mailing cards… it’d be nice to carry that tradition onward. Thank you again for all of your fantastic content 💕
Glad you liked it! Thanks!
Love this Kristen! My brain is bubbling with card ideas for family and friends. Thanks ❤
Have fun! Glad you liked it!
Hi Kristen. I wanted to share a podcast I thought you might enjoy. Quilter on Fire. Episode 177 interview of Radha Weaver. Discussion of sustainability in quilting, in particular with jeans. Ms Weaver spent several years working for Levi’s and was so interesting to listen to. Hope all is well
Lovely idea ! I knew I’d saved my tiny scraps for something 🤔😀
Have fun with it!
I love this idea. Thanks for sharing
Thanks!
Love love this idea -- thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much! So glad you liked it.
OMG! Those are so very beautiful, just love the cards. Cant wait to make some soon. Love spending time with you all the time…😊
Aw thanks! 💕
U welcome, gotta go, n watch more of yr vlogs while I’m babysitting…😽
Brilliant idea, I’ve done this before & they are always well received!
Thanks!
Nice cards. I have been making them for years for all occasions. My technique is to make the motif first like slow stitching, layers etc. then sew the finished item to the card. Last Christmas I had not made enough and a friend was disappointed and told me so when I sent her a commercial card.
I forgot to mention that I sew my motif onto a piece of batting so it it like a mini quilt that is then sewn to the card.
@susanrascone2098 beautiful
Great ideas!
Thanks!
Love it!
Thanks!
What a fun and cute idea!
Thanks!
What a brilliant idea - the possibilities are endless. Thanks for sharing. ❤👍from Somerset
Glad you like it - enjoy!
That's a cute idea. I do have one question - do you backstitch at the beginning and end like you with fabric seams?
Yes I would. My Pfaff does that automatically when I start and stop but otherwise yes a little backstitch is a good idea.
If you do not like the look of the stitching on the inside of the card you could cover it with plain paper. Thanks for the inspiration .
I actually like seeing the stitching on the inside but yes you could absolutely cover it.
Great ideas!
Thanks!
