Nope still not pregnant yet. haha. I just decided to make these quick and easy baby shower thank you cards to put in my booth for sale. I got these cute simple (and cheap) note cards from Big Lots (12 for $1.50) and I decided to spruce them up. I used Lindsay's baby rattle digi from the Babies & Bows Collection. However I didn't feel like coloring 12 of these tiny rattles (not to mention I'm not so great at staying in the lines when they are that small). So I imported my digi into a free program called Paint.net and colored it digitally. I was able to pick colors that matched the note cards perfectly. Then all I had to do was print and cut them into tiny circles. I also printed the words Thank You on a larger circle layered them w/pop dots.
That's right folks! Buy 2 stamp sets, get one free! If you're shoping in her Shophandmade Store, just purchase the 2 sets you want and when Lindsay emails your order to you, she'll ask you which set you'd like for free! So easy! Not to mention, for every $5 you spend, you get a free stamp! Merry Christmas to you!
And don't forget to stop by Lindsay's blog for your weekly freebie!
Now it's time for your Thursday freebie! Here is a useful little svg for your thank you cards. I've cut it as small as 1.5" and it cuts wonderfully!

ReplyDeleteCute cards. A good time-saving tip, too. And I know I will use the svg- it looks great.
ReplyDeleteI love how you colored your images with the computer - what a time saver! My DS does this with drawings he makes. Maybe he will show me how...
ReplyDeleteThank you for the file. It worked this time.

It was almost strange to see a non-Christmas, non-Winter type card. I think I've forgotten about every other kind of card. Thanks for the adorable reminder Tamara. Beautiful job.
ReplyDeleteFabulous idea Tamara! Love the way you "spruced up" the cards - and like Melissa said - an adorable reminder that there is life outside of this Season! :)
