Our collective cardmaking journey ...

Welcome to our Advice Blog about favourite techniques and products for Cardmakers from seven (7) wonderful friends, each with 20+ years of cardmaking experience.  

Group of Seven Cardmakers

For the past couple of years, each month our group has had a Zoom call to try out new techniques (or revisit older techniques), as well as discuss art products.  It's been a lot of fun!  We are continuing to meet up in 2023.

We will be sharing our experiences here on this blog, Group of Seven Cardmakers.

Group of Seven is a Canadian group of iconic artists who inspired the name of our blog.

Our Group of Seven share the love of art
and the idea that knowledge should be shared. :)

Each monthly post will include photos of the group's cards made using the monthly technique, along with links to their individual blog posts, which will include their experience with the technique and products they used.

On the right sidebar of this blog will be a list of Techniques we've tried, with written instructions (listed alphabetically).   Links of any videos we've used will be included in the written instructions.  I will be slowly adding previous techniques we've tried over the past couple of years.

We hope sharing our experience with techniques and products will be helpful to other cardmakers.

Our first Group of Seven technique post goes live January 28, 2023 at 10am PST.
We hope you'll come back and check it out!
