6 Cards From One Sheet

Do you sometimes need cards fast?  Do you make thank you cards? Come see how I took one 12x12 sheet of pattern paper and turned it into six "thank you" cards. I learned from my Mom and my Grandmother at a young age that it's important to take the time to thank people with a written note. I still do that, usually with a handmade card.  I have since passed that etiquette down to my four kids and hope they carry it onto their children. Yes, sometimes they moan and groan (as 3 of them are boys), but I hope they are learning why gratitude is important.

Once you have all your card fronts attached you can add little touches. I added some sparkle on the center trees with a glitter pen. Added some flower embellishments to keep it kind of flat for mailing. Stamp sentiment on the outside and inside. In one hour or less you can have six cards made in no time.  I had to make more than six cards so I used a few sheets from the matching MME 6x6 paper pad too. If you pick really detailed pattern paper, this makes it look like it took you a week to stamp it all. I always look for a deal on my craft products and usually save 50% or more on whole collections, so everything matches.
