Heaven Knows Your Special

Today's cards are simple and pretty.  They are two of the cards I am creating and putting together as a Christmas gift.  The circular image is from the Just Believe stamp set and the sentiment is one of the stamps in the Blessings From Heaven set. The sentiment and image are such that the cards can be used for any occasion: birthday, anniversary, thinking of you and many more. The inside of each card is left blank so there is plenty of room for a handwritten message. I know I mentioned this in other posts, but when I am making cards to give as presents, the embellishments used are typically flat, such as the butterfly.  Once you start adding the bulky embellishments to the card, the chances of additional postage start to increase.  I have a pretty good idea of when a card needs additional postage, but the gift recipient may not be familiar with the mail restrictions.   Speaking of postage, a nice little addition to the gift package of handmade cards would be the stamps and you might be saving someone a trip to the post office.  Have a wonderful day!
