I consider ALL my cards are hand crafted, though I do use my Cuttlebug to emboss backgrounds or die cut Nesties. I rarely use printed papers (sometimes I colour backgrounds with inks) and never use CDs (I don't possess any); mostly the designs are rubber stamped and coloured with pencils, watercolour paints or Promarkers. Frequently I cut the base cards myself from A4 card but I do have A5 card from Papermill and packs of 7x5 cards because it seems wasteful to cut those from A4. I use peel off sentiments and sometimes as an embellished border, but the greeting inside is usually stamped. I use a variety of techniques like parchment craft, decoupage (all hand cut of course!), teabag and iris folding, stencil paste, lacé (again, hand cut), stitching, spirelli, origami.....any others?

I don't mean to offend anyone, but I just can't see any point in sticking a printed picture onto a printed background and calling it a handmade card
