These are real cute! I will have to go to the blog to find out how to make them!

Oh how cute! I will sign up as soon as I have finished up the current swaps I am working on.

Glad to see there is some interest. I thought they would be a great challenge. I often forget just how much one can do with the little things.

Candyn29 01/16/2010 #

ok, just read the instructions, going to get 1 started

This is so original! I'm in!

I made my first card to see how it would go. They are pretty simple to make. But you do need to use the heavier card stock. I used a scrapbook paper and had to sturdy the back up with another peice of the same paper. Because of the glue stick it makes the back kinda curl up....Of course you can flatten it out with a heavy book!

Here is the link to the one I made. This ones going to my sons Teacher

Does the cards have to be "look through" I made some christmascards similar to the above, but they had a backing and it was more like a 3d effect, you could shake them and have the beeds move around.

Here is the template I used

Would you let this count too or would they have to be exactly like the ones shown in the picture?

Sucks - there has to be a _ between schneemann and schuettelkarte and another one before the b

I give up :(

Emkay 01/20/2010 #

When I add the comment it takes away the _

It has to be ....schneemannschuettelkarteb.html

BrennenB 01/20/2010 #

I don't see why it would have to be see through. Anything similar is fine by me. Thanks Emkay.

Candyn29 01/20/2010 #

BrennenB 01/22/2010 #

I forgot to mention envelopes! I just edited the swap to include envelopes for each card too.

Candyn29 01/22/2010 #

OOh I was wondering about that! I have envelope templates, so I will go to work on those.

BrennenB 01/23/2010 #

I'm so glad to see people are interested and joining this swap.Yippee! I finished my 3 cards last night and can't wait to make more! They're so cute I don't want to give them away.

Sorry, I can't join, because postage for sending three cards with an envie would be too high (due to size limits). Too bad, I really liked the idea.
