Finally... something to send it in.

Here is the link to print out the envelope I promised.  I have one envelop in blue with the dots to match the card.  Of course,  that will use more ink but it will look really cool.  Then there is a template that is blank.  You can save both pdf files to your computer by clicking on the little disc icon at the top left of the page.  Then you can print it out any time.  They both will fit onto an 8.5 X 11" paper.  You can print the plain template onto colored paper for a neat look too, still saving your ink to use on the cards.
 Here is the plain template..

Here is the color envie to print..

I hope that you will enjoy using the card and the envelopes.  It is always fun to create something yourself.  Just because it is my design that doesn't mean you can't add your own touches like, ribbons, buttons, stickers and stamps to make it your own creation.  I appreciate feedback from people who enjoy using the things that I post on the blog.  And try out the website to see if there is something there you might want to purchase.

More freebies

I started thinking about cards and how my first rule of thumb is "Find your envelope."   Because without the envelope you can't mail the card.  It is the pits to make a beautiful card only to find that you do not have an envelope the right size to put it in.  
So I have decided to add a matching envelop with the cards.  Most people do not want to use up so much ink on an envelop so I will just put a little matching color image on the envie.  People with photo editors can add more if they want it.   So... off I go to make the template for a standard 1/4 page card.

Cards for the Novice

If you are one of those people who love to send one-of-a-kind cards that look like personal effort was taken in the making of it - but - you don't necessarily have the time to do so; you may enjoy my 'digi-cards' which are on pdf files ready to print.  The cards can be printed on card stock and then cut and folded to make a single layered card.  The file will also contain elements that you can cut out and glue to the card for a  more personal touch.  It can then be embellished even further with bows, buttons, dried flowers, anything you can imagine.
And just for the heck of it.  Let's see if this works. 
click the following link and load the page.  You can print straight from that page or save the file and print to make the card from one of my "Quilted Cuties" designs over and over.  (Tip for printing - when the printer option come up make sure that the option to rescale the page is set to 'none'.)

When the pdf file opens you can print it or save it to your computer to use again and again.   I suggest that you pint it onto white card stock.  The card uses a 1/4 size page envelope  or 4.5" X 5.75".





I hope you enjoy this little token of my appreciation for stopping by my blog.
