Super Quick Note Cards Two Ways with Bella & Friends from Stampin' Up! UK

I hope you are having a Happy Monday?

We have two of our Grandchildren staying with us (my son lives in the flat above our home)

And with so many Kiddies having Birthday Cards, it is essential that you have a range of unisex quick cards that you can either have pre-prepared without the (Sentiment) or just whip them up in a flash.

Well that is exactly what I have for you today. I have used the Bella & Friends Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! as it's images are perfect for Children of any age and gender.

Note Cards make the process even faster and cost effective, since there is no wastage

In the ecample aboove, I Stamped straight onto a piece of Cherry Cobbler Cardstock using Archival Black Ink Pad. This was then mat (layered) onto the Crumb Cake Note Card

In the card below, I have used the same stamp, different sentiment, but stamped straight onto the front of the note card.

The Sentiments in this stamp set, are perfectly scaled for note Cards. Some are large enough to die cut.
You could also add another stamped image to the inside of the card, & on the envelope, to tie everything in.
