Cards are getting close to completion in the card factory," in our lounge.
They are close to "final assembly." Every one is different.

Here's a birthday and a Christmas card, ready for packing, for someone in the Netherlands. I need to send them this week for any hope of them getting there in time.

A lot of them now are kits, which give you the choice of different elements, so you can choose how you make up an individual card. You have to cut them out, some in triplicate to get the decoupage effect with scissors, some of which have blades no longer than an inch.
Sometimes she'll ask me for something that I have to search the internet, then print it off.

Some are very complicated.

Like these special occasion ones for family.

This hobby she partly uses as a distraction from the discomfort of her medical problems.

They look great and i know about decoupage and it takes a lot of concentration.
