I was going to do this last week BUT my camera went nuts for a few hours. It snowed that morning so I dashed inside to get pictures of Mandy playing in her first snow. Took several pictures, came inside to have breakfast and went back outside with them, THIS time Mandy had her sweater on since I knew there was snow.
Camera would NOT focus and little green dot blinking along with the battery light blinking... I though, ok need to charge the batter. Since I didn't go to work until noon, I had time. Battery charged STILL would not work. Fortunately, after I got off work, the first googled fix worked, took the lens off again but this time, took a soft cloth and wiped the connections on the lens and the camera. Worked!
Ok, everyone is wanting to get ideas of how to display our cards. Here is mine and post all yours too.
I got these mini clothes pins at Walmart in the teeny tiny scrapbooking department. They have the 50 wooden ones shown here for about $1.99 and also have multi color plastic ones for about the same size and price in the same department. They also have some slightly bigger wooden ones in about 25 to the package.
They also have some plastic ones in the baby party section and some other wooden ones in the kids craft section where the foamy sheets, felt sheets and paint-your-own sun catchers are. I just think these are the perfect size and like the look of unpainted wood mini clothes pins. Some cards don't really need clothes pins, some can just be draped over the cord.
The cotton cord shown is in the beading department and comes in red and white as you can see in the tiny sample. It is a little bigger and sturdier than bakers twine BUT if you have it, use it. It is also about $1.99 each. You'll probably need 2 packages each, I'll warn you, they do run out of the red and white, that is why I have the package of gold and unbleached cotton, I'd given up, bought this and then naturally, the red and white came back into stock.
You'll need clear push pins or something to run around the top of the wall. I used my red and green Christmas dog and paw print ribbon that I got YEARS ago to put at the top of the ceiling. I like to put them at the top of the wall in the craft room and leave them up all year. They make me smile. They are also a nice addition to your foyer or living room.
Here are the pictures of the packages you are looking for:
Here are some of the cards from 2 years ago pinned up close to the ceiling.
Ok, now it is YOUR turn, show us how you hang your cards.
Next time, I have a technique or maybe it is a trick to share. A type of pop up card where there is no cutting of the pop up part. All you need is a way to score cardstock.
