Mass produced cards

This Papercraft thursday I'd like to show you the cards I made for my niece (& her parents) to give as Thank You cards for the gifts they received at her naming ceremony.
I made 33 of them in total


Making several cards with the same design can get a little tedious, especially if its a complex design so I try to opt for simple ones. I also set up a kind of conveyor belt style, cut all papers first, attach ribbon to all of them, then fasten to card etc etc. This way if I do get bored of any stage, I can move onto another stage for a little while, and go back again to do the rest of the cards.

As long as I know the person I find doing something in their style far easier than doing my own style, such as these cards using quite a bit of pink, which most of you will have realised by now I really am not a fan of pink .... is this just a case of me not having discovered my own style yet? Love to hear what you think.
