Hand-made Note Cards











These are the handmade note cards I made that went into the tins I created (look at previous post same day).  I stuck mainly with "thanks" and "happy Birthday" since I knew those get used the most on a daily basis.  I left the inside of the cards blank( all cards are from Micheal's recollections).  The "cupcakes" and "thanks a latte" I made using my Cricut Imagine.  The stamps were colored with copic markers using GinaK heavy weight white cardstock.  It is great for copic marker coloring since it is a 120lb weight.  The stickers are various ones that I have had for several years.  Since I bought my Cricut and I am really into stamps, I don't use or buy stickers anymore.  So I have a large collection that I am trying to use in my projects. The labels I made with my Gypsy cut out on the Imagine.  They are stock shapes that come with the Imagine.  Border punch is from Fiskars.  I love using that one because it is easy to use.  The stamps "happy birthday, thanks and thank you"are from "Stamps of Life".  I hope my Mom and Mother-in-law like them.  I took a week to make 40 cards.  The envelopes I bought from Office Depot" simple A2 envelope.
