A Note For You! Happy Mail with Crafting Forever

There is always a reason to send some happy mail. Thanks for helping me out, Hope you feel better soon, Thinking of you, Thanks for being there, Lets meet up for coffee...  Isn't it lovely to receive a little hand made note card in the post? That little spark of colour in amongst the bills and junk mail?

So I had a little play with the Crafting Forever stamp set to create this one. 

The note cards come in a pack of 20 with envelopes, all pre scored and ready to go. I added a little stamping and used three colours. Lemon Lime Twist, Melon Mambo and Bermuda Bay. I added a little Lemon Lime Twist Ombre Ribbon to the card and stamped on the envelope, I want it to stand out in the post! 

An added bonus with this stamp set is that it contains Stampin' Up!'s angel policy stamp too.

I wanted to use just one of the pens on the stamp that has three images on it, to make it look like it has written "a note for you" . You can see how easy it is to do that here in my quick You Tube Tutorial of how I made the card.

A quick and simple card I will pop in the post . I hope it brightens their day 😊 It has got me thinking of all the people I could send a little handmade notecard to. So many... Do you like getting a hand written card? Let me know in the comments.

Dimensions

Notecards are 5" x 3 1/2 "

Lemon Lime Twist layer: 4 3/4" x 3 1/4 "

Home To Roost Note Cards And Gift Box - Saleabration Sunday

Home To Roost Note Cards And Gift Box

Saleabration Sunday

Thanks for joining me for Saleabration Sunday, bringing you a new project every Sunday throughout Saleabration.

 You can Shop Saleabration here.

I really love the Rooster image in the Home To Roost stamp set. When I saw it I knew I wanted to team it up with the Gingham Gala papers for a farm house feel so I created these notecards and a box for them too.

There is a good selection of sentiments in this set to create with and with a variety of colours in the Gingham Gala DSP it's easy to create a set of note cards with.

I used the notecards and envelopes. They are so handy. They come in a pack of twenty in either Whisper White or Very Vanilla. They measure 31/2 " x 5 " so my Gingham Gala front panel is 3 1/4 x 4 3/4. The Rooster is stamped in Memento ink and coloured in with just a few Blend pens. I have used one of the circles from the Stitched Shape Framelit Dies. I love them but you could use a circle punch just as well.

The box is super simple to make using the envelope punch board. If you don't have one, put it on your list, There are so many boxes you can make apart from envelopes.

You can see my You Tube Tutorial here showing how I made both the cards and the box too.I hope you enjoy it. Do give me a thumbs up and subscribe if you do. Oh and don't forget to click the little bell for notification of future videos.

Box Measurements-

Card stock at 8 1/4 x 8 1/4

Score and punch at 3 1/8 and 4 1\8 on both opposite sides

Turn the card 180 degrees and following the score lines, punch and score again. Repeat in the opposite side.

Corner round the corners.

Here are all the products I used to make the notecards and gift box with clickable links to my online shop
