"This title features step-by-step instructions for 100 adorable card making projects, perfect for whether you're crafting a last-minute birthday card or looking to stretch your papercraft skills with an all-occasion 'anytime' card. With 50 basic cards and another 50 cards with an interactive or dimensional feature, there are plenty of options no matter how experienced you are or no matter how much time you have to spend. Step-by-step photos will help readers work through all the tricky bits to create truly memorable cards with swivels, pop-ups, spinners, shakers, sliders and more for birthdays, holidays, celebrations and no reason at all." (psst...you can also buy it here!)
Of course, if you're making cards you need something to make them with right? Well, have we got a second great prize for you! Today's winner will also win...
The February Card Kitchen Kit from Jillibean Soup! Each kit is chock full of products that coordinate together to create at least 8 fabulous cards. A typical kit will look something like this:
- At least 8 pieces of 12"x12" coordinating pattern paper
- Full sheets of either coordinating die cuts and/or stickers (many times both!)
- Usually 3 different trims such as silk ribbon, grosgrain ribbon, crocheted trim, baker's twine, natural twine, etc.
- Fun embellishments that work wonderfully on cards, interesting buttons, cool brads, kraft tags, mini alphas, sentiment stickers or stamps.
- A set of 8 cards with envelopes. We love Kraft so most kits will have contain some kraft cards and envelopes. The other cards included will coordinate with the papers in the kit.
PLUS, With each kit you will also receive a full, detailed set of instructions to create 8 cards. Note that you will have a ton of product left over to create additional cards or projects (with ideas from your new book!). Everything will come to you un-cut so you can use the products as you see fit if you don't want to create the sample cards.
A spectacular prize today right? Just leave us a comment below before Thursday, February 23rd at 6:00 p.m. EST! Good luck!

I have never tried to make handmade cards, just scrapbooking layouts for albums. I would love to win this prize and start a whole new area of scrapping.
