Hello all you Mini Card Kit fans!!

If you aren't sure what a Mini Card Kit is... I'm gonna tell Ya!!

She constructed the perfect little bundle of everything needed to 
create a wonderful array of greeting cards.

Perfect for beginners because it offers you a great taste of all the supplies needed for a

are just the right amount of paper, card stock, embellishments and ribbon.  
Just the right amount to give you a little sample of what you will want
