Embossed note Cards!

Hello everyone! I hope you all are having a great start to the long Labor Day Holiday weekend. My Daughter started school on Monday. She is attending a private Catholic school. I want her to have a religious education. My son attended Catholic school when he was going to school. I been so busy with school I have not made any projects this week. Here is some note cards I made a couple of weeks ago. Some of this note card can be used for lunch box notes. The embossing folders I used here on these note cards came with the Cuttlebug embossing machine when I bought it. Click to enlarge any photo!
The Cuttlebug embossed folders I used here are the Best friends (4) folders set. These note cards are easy to make. I got (6) cards out of 8 1/2 by 11 inches cardstock. When note card is folded it measures 2 1/8 wide by 3 inches length. To get this size I used a piece of cardstock 4 1/4 wide by 3 inches length. I used the Inkadinkado blending chalk to give white cardstock some color. I like the color it adds. Very pretty color.
I wrap them in clear wrap and they are ready to give as a gift! I gave my friend some of these note cards and she loved them.
I made envelopes for them too. I used the Plantin Schoolbook cartridge to cut envelopes out.

Cartridge used:
Plantin SchoolBook to cut (envelope) on page #79 cut at 3 inches.
