I made a couple of sets of cards today. I'll show you one of them today, and the other sometime soon. I thought I would keep it as simple as possible and use very few cuts and neutral colors. Fort his set, I made 4 of the exact same card. As I get better at this, I'll probably start making card sets with different cards in the same color scheme. Also, these are blank on the inside. My intention is to give these as a gift, and I even purchased some clear card boxes, which make my cards look way more professional!
These are A2 sized cards and I cut the front butterfly at 3" from the Straight From the Nest cartridge. I know!! I need to use my other cartridges. I can't help it that I love this one SO much!! The inside butterfly was cut at 1". This was so easy it's ridiculous.
I think these would be great to keep on hand as last minute gifts! Ever forget a birthday or another occassion? I have and these would make the perfect "Oh, I so knew it was your birthday" gift (wink)!
