Children's Picture Book Day happy birthday card

Celebrating kids.. it is so much fun to create and celebrate the children in my life.  Today, at our Coffee and Cards, this adorable little girl named Charlie came over and asked to create a card.  I love seeing the world through the eyes of a child.  So today's 365 Reasons to Celebrate is Children's Picture Book Day and I knew I had to play with this collection and create something fun!

Celebrate the Day handmade card making tutorial

I have a little secret to tell you... I can't help myself, when I grab my mail.. if there is Happy Mail I have to STOP right there and open it up.  I find myself reading notes, letters and such more than once even.  Am I alone??  

On today is Card Reading Day and I had to say that this had me re-read some of my more recent happy mail... and smile with the pictures and words they included.

Recently I sent these beauties out to those on my mailing list.  I added a little word sentiment to it but today I wanted to show you the peek-a-boo fun inside to this card.  
An Easel Card is so easy and fun to create.  Something special and new with just one little additional score line.
~  Score a full sheet of Old Olive card stock, long ways, at 2-3/4" and 5-1/2" (using our Simply Scored board or our Stampin' Trimmer).
~  Turn 90* and cut at 4-14" (our Stampin' Trimmer can do both with the cutting and scoring blades in one fine track).
~  Cut the Rich Razzelberry card stock to 4" x 5-1/4", Whisper White to 3-3/4" x 5" and the Suite Soiree Designer Series Paper to 3-1/2" x 4-3/4" and adhere them together (here I used a circle punch to round the corners of each for interest).
~  TOOL TIP:  A Super Strong Adhesive that I love is our Tear Tape.  This tape is ideal for projects that move or interact.. like this Easel Card that can open and close!  3D items and more work great with that adhesive as well.. 
~  Adhere to the lower scored area of the front of the card. 
~  Stamp the inside of the card and adhere the calendar.. this will help create a framed type of art for your desk (or the desk of those who you care for).
My other secret... here are the cards from our Christmas.  ALL of my mail was in a big metal bucket until last week.  I was soooo busy during the holidays that I couldn't look up and through my mail.  What a fun thing to do this past week, reading the notes, Christmas letters, seeing the pictures of our loved ones.
Happy Card Reading Day!  Sending a card, receiving a card... I know that when I receive any Happy Mail, I find myself tearing it open at the mail box.  It happens so rare and is just so much fun!

What Others are SAYING about Getting Crafty with Jamie

Jamie is so passionate and creative about making cards - and wants everyone else to join her in the fun! She is so encouraging and positive in her attitude, helping me along when I get frustrated - and then rejoicing with me at the finished product! I love going to her classes to get new ideas, learn techniques, and have loads of fun in the process. ~ Christine C.

Jamie has wicked awesome classes! If you don’t like a particular stamp or paper/ink color Jamie wants you to change it to suit your style! I did my sister-in-law’s entire bridal shower from invitations/thank you cards, party favors to decorations, it was quaint and whimsical! Everyone ooh’d and ahh’d! I’ve had lots of special requests for classes and Jamie delivers; she always has tasty treats and flavored coffees too ~Ashley W.

I have been attending Jamie's classes for over a year. Her ideas for cards are fresh and fun. She always tries to have several different styles of cards available, so everyone gets to make cards that fit their personal style. The techniques she shows each class can be used in many different applications. She is very patient teacher when instructing class members on how to use the Stampin Up products. ~ Carol D.

If I looked up the word sparkle in the dictionary, I would find Jamie Albanese picture there. I have had the sweet blessing of knowing Jamie and her family for over 5 years now. Every time I am with her I feel loved and inspired. When I am in one of her classes I feel my creative juices flow, as she encourages me to go outside my comfort zone. Jamie helped our girl scout troop make cards for a soldier who needed some encouragement!!! For any of you who have not been in one of Jamie's classes, please don't let another day slip by. She is a beautiful friend and she will become yours too. ~ Blessings, Karen:-)

Jamie has a great eye for style and flair, and it shows in her work. Yet she can pick up on your own individual style and makes great recommendations. I love that she is always flexible for last-minute decision maker mommies like me! So much fun to host craft events with your friends and family - that personal touch always means so much. ~ Adonna
