You're currently viewing Splitcoaststampers as a GUEST. We pride ourselves on being great hosts, but guests have limited access to some of our incredible artwork, our lively forums and other super cool features of the site! You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
I KNOW we all love to make cards ... you wouldn�t even be READING this if you didn�t!!! And oft-times we make cards just because a challenge dictates, or because we want it for our �arsenal� of �just in case� �
Today, I would like you to make a card with a specific purpose in mind. In fact, I would like you to make a card that directly reflects something about the person for whom you are making it. A favorite color � a hobby � something they collect � just make sure that your card reflects the character of the person who is going to receive it!!
My sample is for my brother-in-law, Richard. Not only does he LOVE bowties, but he also rides his UNICYCLE to his law office every single day!! Rain/shine/or snow!! Here�s an article about him, see??? (He is someone I would DEFINITELY say has a LOT of character!!)
Uploading: Remember the keyword is without spaces. Use a comma between keywords with a space after each comma.

Great challenge! I like your card and story. If I have time to participate in the challenge later today, it'll be great to get one or more cards for upcoming birthdays completed. Let's see ... one person loves cats, another has fresh flowers in her house year round, another has a collection of wizard stuff, another loves rock music ... lots to work with there!
Wendy, this is such a great challenge, encouraging us to be really thoughtful about who the card's going to! Thank you! Here's my card for Dear Neighbors
Great challenge Wendy! It was an easy one for me because I love creating cards with the recipient's character in mind -- that's what cardmaking is all about -- creating something special for someone special. Here's my Fly Fishing Heritage card.

I have a friend who's celebrating her birthday soon, and her favorite color is pink, so this card will be going to her. Thanks for the great challenge!

Here is a card I made for a friend who's Uncle will turn 91 on Christmas Day. He asked to make a card for him, I tried to make the birthday part vintage due to the age milestone.
You really have to go to my blog to get all the details and see all the pictures PA130013-Copy.jpg
