Good thing all has been quiet between me and the kids' teachers this month. I had yet to make my monthly notecards. I made these just in time since I have notes that have to go in and now I have something seasonal AND pretty to write them on!
When I made my polka dotted card for the CAS challenge last week, someone had commented that the design would work good for stationery. This got me thinking about my notecards for the month.
So I cleaned the red off my polka dots from Papertrey and stamped them with Glorious Green (SU). The shamrock (Storage Units Ink) is also stamped with glorious green. The shamrock layer and the green circle layer both have mounting tape on them - I wanted to go for a bit of dimension with this one.
Some sets of notecards take longer than others but this month these are truly a 5 minute job. Within 30 minutes, you could easily have a whole set of these. What a wonderful gift to give to someone who likes to write little notes or for teachers who are always writing notes. A set of these with envelopes fit nicely into the Papertrey clear boxes and look so nice and neat when all packaged up. I think I'm onto the start of the year end teacher's gifts with this idea - its never too early to start thinking year end gifts!
What a neat idea for a stationary set. It turned out great. TFS

Don't you just love when you can accomplish so much in a reasonable amount of time - even better when it looks so good. Great notecards!!
