10 Handmade Card Ideas to Say “I Love You”

Sneak Peek Day 3

May 7, 2012      Nichole Heady      27 Comments

With the May Release we are bring you some fresh ideas, right from the farm!

Sneak-Peek-5
I have designed a new set that embraces the rustic farm trend that is so prevalent in the industry now.  It is full of classic animal silhouettes, some unique background options to "ground" the animals and of course, some incredible sentiments as well.

Sneak-Peek-6
And when you start thinking about a farm, of course chickens followed by chicken wire come to mind!  A new background set is coming your way that really captures that farm feel!
