One trend I noticed at CHA was notebook lines. Thick, dotted, elementary school line paper. Almost everyone had a piece in their collection. I also noticed a few seasonally colored lined papers. The handwriting line stamp in this set is going to allow you to make your own handwriting paper, for whatever project you are working on! There is nothing school or teachery about this card. :)
Because all the word stamps are separate, you can build your own sentiments. Here is a list of sentiments you can make, non-school sentiments.
- for you
- you’re the best
- thank you
I also made this flower from the stamps in the set. By stamping the leaf several times on patterned paper, I was able to create the flower.
And one last fun feature of this card-the notebook edge. I made that without an edge punch or die template. And to show you how, I made a quick video tutorial. If you need the direct link, click here: NOTEBOOK EDGE

Oh that flower is just perfect! I'm loving that paper you pieced it from, chic without being too froofy! LOL Super cute card, Kim!
Oh gosh...this is adorable! Love your little edge and the flowers!
Very pretty, love how you made that flower!
Wonderful card. It's great to see that a set can be used "out of the box" like you did with the flower.
Congrats to the winner (a little bummed it wasn' me)!
Kimberly this is a gorgeous card!!!! I can't wait to get my sets! (thanks again!)
Love this card the flower is darling thanks for the video!
Love the flower idea and the notebook idea is super also!!
That's so pretty! I love your idea about notebook paper! I have a punch but it makes the more boxy looking notebook paper, I'll keep this in mind for a rounder look!
love the tutorial!
