Waterfall Cards

We are into the second day of October and it is truly feeling like fall here.  This made us want to share a few more fall cards we created.  This card is called a waterfall card.  You will see why when you look at the pictures.  There are 4 squares that layer on top of each other and when you pull on the bottom they will move so you can see the other squares.  It's our new favorite and you can do so many things with it.  

Check out the video, which shows how the card actually works!

Welcome to Simply Be Inspired

We are excited to launch our blog and show you some of the designs we have been working on.  Please check out the right side of the blog to find out about us and contact information.

We have been making cards together for what seems like forever, though in reality it has only been a few years.  We started by taking a stamping class as a nearby stamp store and fell in love with card making.  We got together to create our own Christmas cards with friends and quickly began building our stash of supplies.  After scrapbooking for years, we mainly began adding stamps and new paper, which is addicting!

In May of 2009, we realized how much fun we have designing and creating cards together.  We decided that we would love to start a business together.  What is better than starting a business with one of your closest friends?  So Simply Be Inspired was born.

Since then we have created wedding, baby, birthday, and many other invitations.  We have also created Christmas cards and occasion cards for different clients.  We also spend a lot of time creating our own cards to send to friends and family.  I don't think either of us has bought a card in over 2 years.

We are up for any task and will try any new technique that you are interested in.  You can find examples of our cards on our Facebook page.  :)
