Another Note Card Set

I enjoy making note card sets and giving them as gifts to friends and family. It's also fun to get notes from friends and family who have used one of the note cards I made. I'm often reminded of one of the designs I had done before I was keeping samples of my work! I am very fortunate to have a paper supply store in the area that sells good quality card stock and other card supplies (pre-folded cards, envelopes, etc.) very inexpensively. The note cards that I am featuring today were made with a card blank that has an embossed  center and is pre-scored so all I have to do is stamp. The card blank measures 4-7/8" X 7" and is scored at 3-1/2". When complete and folded, the card is the size that is often associated with Wedding Thank You cards.
For this notecard set, I used the Heart Deco peg stamp set by Rubber Stamp Tapestry. The sentiment is from the Sincere Salutations stamp set by Stampin' Up! You can whip out a set of these note cards in a mere matter of minutes--it's that easy!! Rubber Stamp Tapestry offers over 120 wonderful peg stamp sets in different themes. Since I started buying some of their peg stamp sets, the company has  branched out to offering individual peg stamps, fabric stamps, border stamps, and block stamps, as well. One of the great features of these peg stamps is their "placement line"--a line along a portion of the wood dowel that is an indicator, or guide, of the image's orientation; that makes my stamping so much easier!

Tomorrow is the QKR Stampede Frosty in July Blog Hop; and here is my final sneak peek of a project that I have in store for you:
I look forward to seeing you at the Hop and look forward to your comments and impressions of the Hop, as well. As always, thank you for stopping by and visiting. Have a terrific day!

Now how did I miss this post? What a beautiful card! Your friends and family must love getting these gifts from you. I can't imagine anyone not loving them.
I will have to check out that link and see what that company has to offer.
I have some small stamps, but never thought of using them for something like these cards. How beautiful!
