Monday at Mere’s: Card Challenge

Hi there,  my name is Sara and I am one of Meredith Cardall’s Creative Team members.  I am here today to push you to get your digital scrapbook holiday cards created and printed to share with family and friends.

I have found that sometimes ordering the generic cards that some stores offer is not as fun as customizing my own.  Cards are not just for the holidays but can also be created and sent to family and friends throughout the year with updates and photos.  Being a Military Family, our relatives often miss out on the little things that happen with us and our children.  This gives us a way to celebrate each of their little achievements as well as giving family a keepsake they can keep with them and share with others.

I create my cards in a 4×6 format so they are easy to print and easy to send.  I purchase my envelopes (Invitation size) from our local store and these cards fit perfect inside and also look professional for sending.

So now for the Challenge!  Take the template and use it to create your card.  It does not have to be for the holidays, just use it as you please.  You can even change it and make it a 6 x4 card by rotating the template 90 degrees.  Please use at least 50% of Meredith Cardall Design products (Freebies also work!).  Upload this to your favorite gallery, come back here to the blog and post your link in the comments! On November 14th, one random winner will be chosen to receive a free kit of their choice!!!

Here is a preview of the Template:

I hope that you find inspiration in this Challenge.  Thank you for taking on this challenge and I look forward to seeing your card creations!

For truly professional printing, check out Persnickety Prints.  With their metallic photo paper or pearlized cardstock, your photo cards will literally shine!

Always Remember Friday Free Gift

One of the hardest things for me to scrap is loss.  But I am committed to scrapping real life.  I feel like it is important for my children to know that I am a real person and I experience hurt and sorrow.  Not everything in life is sunshine and roses.  But something I have learned over the years is that scrapping and journaling about my losses has helped me to heal.  We can heal from our hurts, sorrows and losses.  This week’s freebie is especially for those who have experienced the loss of a child or know someone who has experienced the loss of a child.

This freebie coordinates with Always Remember, a collab with SuzyQ.

Head over to SuzyQ’s blog for another coordinating freebie and a fun tutorial on aligning objects in Photoshop.
