PremadeHandmade Card Kits
Hi Everyone! Today I wanted to tell you a little bit about our company. As I was creating a Christmas card I started thinking about all the equipment I was using to make a single card. I remember when I started all I had was a rubber stamp, ink pad and some scraps of paper and very little knowledge of how to actually put it together to make it look like more then just a homemade card. I didn't even have a paper cutter! I would just measure and cut with a pair of scissors! The circles were a real challenge using my compass to make the circles and then trying to stay on the line - the circle would get smaller and smaller as I continued to trim again and again, trying to get it to look round. I soon realized I needed to invest in some fun equipment if I wanted to even come close to making a fabulous card.
First I bought a paper cutter, then a Big Shot. After purchasing the Big Shot I realized I needed those wonderful Nestibilities to make my die cuts look great (one of them being a circle). After buying my first set of Nestibilities I found I needed another set if I wanted them to actually "nest".
I began to realize just how expensive all this is and overpowering for someone to get started - thus PremadeHandmade was created. Our company was designed with the novice in mind - someone who loves crafts but has not, as yet, purchased all the different tools they need and maybe are not totally comfortable creating their own designs. Our card kits are already cut, die cut, embossed and ready to assemble. All you need to do is stamp the image (stamp included in the kit). A great way to make your own handmade cards to send to your friends!
