Gifting someone a handmade card is like preparing food from scratch. But instead of using ingredients, it would be with stickers, construction paper, and markers.

Someone out there in the world would love to be surprised with a card. The great news is you can be the person who surprises them!

If you are still not convinced, here’s how to overcome the following excuses.

1) “I Can’t Draw”

While that could be true, you can still be artistic:

  • Use stickers
  • Trace pictures
  • Use cut-out designs

Think carefully about what your recipient can talk about for hours. What makes their face light up in a matter of seconds?

Is it ships, dogs, or hamburgers?

My recipient enjoys food. So I cut out hamburger buns, lettuce, tomatoes and glued them all together.

I even cut out sesame seeds. I then added encouraging stickers to fill the empty spaces.
