Fun Cards To Make
Creating for Sheer Joy Sake!

Try making some fun cards! Life is too short. So let's take some time out to enjoy ourselves.

These are handmade cards created solely for the sheer joy of creating. In our busy schedule, it is good to relax at the end of the day or week just to have some fun and 'me' time simply creating.

Why not spend some time to create some fun greeting cards for kids or adults; for just anyone. Let them know that life can be fun, funny and enjoyable too.

Better still, invite them to create cards with you.

Making handmade cards for the sheer joy of creating using various fun techniques is the best playtime for families to spend quality time together.

Spirograph Cards

I have always been a kid at heart where spirographs are concerned. Love it so much that I will draw spirograph patterns all over my journals, altered books, and greeting cards.

Spirograph Designs

You can have hours of fun just making these spirograph designs. Design with the spirograph set on white cardstock. Color them with metallic gel pens, cut them out and just paste into your cards. Lovely! Try it!

Here are a few of my Spirograph Cards.

Butterfly Card

A 3D butterfly resting on the centre of a spirograph flower. Corner punch is also used on this handmade square card.

You can read how I create this card here.

Flower Card

This fun card is also done using a spirograph design - another flower. Colouring the design with acrylic paint and then cutting it out to layer it on coloured papers. And finally attaching to a square off-white basic blank card.

Here, I also used a photo corner punch to decorate the four corners.
