In the Stampin' Up! Winter Mini Catalog there are cute little 3x3 pre-cut and pre-scored cards for sale. They come 40 in a package and include the envelopes...so they're not a bad deal at $9.95! The color choices are Real Red, Pretty in Pink, and Whisper White, and the envelopes are Whisper White. I encourage you all to check them out! This may be an especially good route for those of you with children in school. Having the cardstock pre-cut and folded takes out tons of prep time! Following are a few samples (with the recipes below) that I worked up yesterday. One whole day off makes for lots of stamping time!
