I'm always in a hurry and never enough time so I'm really excited about Quick & Easy Scalloped Note Cards & Envelopes. They give me a quick pretty base with 4 great colors to start with--so I don't have to choose among 50 colors--just 4--that limits my choosing time significantly.

Then the scalloped edge on the note card and on the matching envelope really adds  pizzazz to my creation with no effort on my part...so now all I need to do is add a bit of decoration on the front and I'm good to go.

Today I'm using a cute little new stamp and die bundle from the new catalog  called Pretty Pavilion.Since the note card is slightly smaller than a regular sized card I chose a couple of the smaller stamps to use....here's the result:

I stamped in Memento ink so I could use my Blend alcohol markers. I love my Blends--the color flows so evenly and brightly...I never have to worry about streaking. And when one marker runs dry (yes, I use them a lot) I only have to purchase one marker and not the Combo.

I'm going to give you the brief directions for this note card followed by the Supply List. You can hit the Shop Now button or click on one of the product images below and you'll be in my store. You can order your supplies to create these cute cards.

Today we'll create a beautiful card with Gorgeous Color with No Coloring...here it is:

Am I right--isn't that color great....and another super benefit....there's no stamping either! This is one of those cards that you can create is mere minutes when you are in a crush..but the card looks terrific!

The secret sauce is that we are using the Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper--it has several sheets with lovely designs...the one used for this card have several images that would work well with the Layering Oval dies and simply layer with a contrasting color with the next sized up oval die.

One  last touch really sets off the bird images--that's a touch of Wink of Stella. If you know me for more than 5 minutes--you know I even sparkle up my dreams with a bit of Wink! (Didn't know you could do that? Just stick with me--you'll find tons of great uses for that Wink.)
