Birthday Cards - Greeting Cards - ”Blue Collage Card”
In craft stores, you can find a most wonderful selection of scrapbook papers. Not only can you use them to make beautiful scrapbook pages, but they are just perfect for making cards as well.

In a craft shop you can find a wonderful selection of designer scrapbooking papers. By combining 2 or 3 that match, you can create wonderful and unique collage cards for all occasions. This is an example of a card using 3 papers and arranging them in a pleasing way onto a blank card.
