Hello Reader,

Today’s project features two sweet 3×3 cards created using yesterday’s free card sketch—proof that a simple layout can stretch beautifully into multiple designs. By changing just a few details, you can turn one sketch into a whole stack of cards ready to go.

NEW product spotlight:

Both cards showcase a trio of brand-new favorites that work especially well for clean and simple designs:

• Fabulous Sayings Stamp Set – January Product of the Month​
  A must-have sentiment set with a modern handwritten feel.
  ​Get it for just $5 with a $75 purchase (while supplies last).
