Quick, simple & FABULOUS!
Teresa has done all the hard work and designed classic motifs within each of her collections that can be used for a multitude of projects. I personally feel my blood pressure rise when I know I’m down to only a few sheets of her black and white dotted papers!!!
This week I want to share something totally simple, inexpensive and can be made in a flash…but you can dress it up as much as you want! I have some friends with birthdays coming and here’s part of their birthday gift (shhh, don’t tell)…
Super simple and classy and frugal monogrammed note cards…you can of course make these whatever size you’d like (mine are small, 3 1/2” x 5” with 1 ½” patterned paper strips). Find a font you love (I used the font "leroybrown") print it on white cardstock, punch it out with a 2” circle punch and back it with friend’s signature color. Bam! The timeless patterns from the Mr. & Mrs. collection are perfect.Tie the set with a ribbon or package your cards in a made to match box…I used a medley of papers to add lots of patterns to this card box.
But wait, wouldn’t this be perfect for a bride’s gift!!!
Whoever receives it…I think they’ll love it!
Have fun!
Janna I would love a hot to for the card box. So very cute!!!!!!
