Treasure Life Notecard Gift Set

I know you are probably tired of seeing me post cards using the Treasure Life stamp set, but I simply cannot stop. I just love this set! We are heading out to some friend’s house in a little while and I really wanted to bring them something to thank them for inviting our family over for dinner. They are a sweet family from church that just became missionaries. They are constantly sending out notes and thank you cards to their supporters, so I thought a note card set would be appropriate.
Gotta run or we’ll be late. Have a blessed evening! *Ü*

Smiles,




ETA: I have had a few questions about how I made the cards. They were actually pretty simple. I created the border and the personalization on the computer in Adobe Illustrator using a free font called CAC Pinafore. After I printed them out on cardstock, I stamped the flowers and I was done. The hardest part of the whole project was trying to get my cardstock to go through the printer without jamming. LOL! After I made all the cards, I put them in a clear box and tied some Cocoa grosgrain ribbon around it.

  5. Hi Lisa, I get your blog posts sent to my email so I don't comment as much as I should! But I just love this notecard set! I love the colors you chose, the simplicity, and the personalization. I just got Creative Suite so I just may have to try my hand at hybrid cardmaking :) Love it! This stamp set is just perfect.

  7. I have long loved Treasure Life (had to re-purchase it as someone borrowed it and never returned it) and absolutely adore all your cards using it! You give me plenty of inspiration! Thanks, Lisa!
