Simplicity Sells


I often see simple cards selling on Etsy, obviously there is a niche. This note card was quick and easy to make and in the process of making it - I figured out a way to quickly make the sentiment and sentiment mat layers using my Brother ScanNCut. I have spend nearly two weeks creating a tutorial that will be available FREE with your $50 Stampin' Up! product purchase from me using my Hostess Code. The tutorial will also be available for $9.99 once it is released. It is a Game Changer!!!

  • Very Vanilla Note Cards*
    • I used Card base measures 4 7/8" x 7"

* I created my own faux sentiment die cut and shadow using my Brother ScanNCut. Every stamp can be a die!


* I used the Delightfully Detailed Note Cards & Envelopes purchased in 2019. Once one layer or more is added to the card, they barely fit into the envelope. I trimmed the cards 4 7/8" instead of the premade width of 5"
