Oh how easy and yet so nice. I have tons of paper and have wanted to make some cards for my sister to send. I especially liked the more detailed cards. I guess one is limited only by their imagination.
Thank you, Jackie, for this video.

That’s right–the possibilities are endless with this method (at least until you run out of paper). Ha!
I needed to make a bunch of thank you cards for my daughter and didn’t have much time. Using this simple format, I was able to make a dozen cards in 1 hour! Yay! I used the “stitched so sweetly” die rectangles instead and some floral DSP. It really is endless what you can make using this format. Thank you!
I’m so happy to hear that this format worked well when you needed it! Have a stamp happy day!
Such a great idea. Thank you for sharing. This will definately be a MUST TRY for me.
I love the clean, simple and easy cards.
It makes me smile knowing these ideas are helpful to you–have a stamp happy day!
