Yes, card making!! I made my FIRST card a few weeks ago for mom, it was SO mediocre and plain but it was the thought of the card and what I wrote on the inside that mattered. (It was a 'Thank you' card for Mom!)Ok, so my 2nd card, I made yesterday! NO... It's NOT the one that I posted the picure of, that one is Madelyn's card that she made for me!!! It is so fun to have Madelyn make you a card because you know she is going to put her very best and hard work towards it. The yellow ribbon is one of her favorites and I think it adds to this card. Madelyn always insists that you write on the inside of the card, so she told Grammy (Mom) what she wanted to write. I went into the other room and Madelyn just went off spouting a lot of different things, I thought it was so cute. The paper wasnt big enough for Grammy to write EVERYTHING she said, so Grammy just wrote some of what she said.
We exchanged cards and I read what she had written and she read what I wrote. Then she told Grammy she needed a bow on hers too. So my mom made her a bow and she glued it on. When it was all done, I asked for a hug and a kiss. She gives good hugs! As she was hugging me she said to me, "Em, we will always be just friends!" YAY! I will always have a best friend! Woo!!! :)
As for the card making thing.... I guess I'll just come out of the closet on that one... I scrapbook and I enjoy it! :) I've made 2 cards, 2 6x6 books, and I'm almost done with my third. No, I am not going to join Emilee's Stampin up club once a month and have 32342874982 punches, stamp sets, pads of paper, and embellishments... (a year ago I wouldnt even had KNOWN those terms let alone know what they do!) but I will continue to scrapbook and make cards. :) Now that its out in the open, I feel a huge weight lifted off my shoulders! HA! Jk!
Happy scraping! :P

I see you have my problem... everything in pairs. "Creative decorating" is usually done in odd numbers. It just bugs me when everything doesn't have a buddy!
Cute card. I am glad your neice loves you so much.
