A quick card!

Good Morning! Blogspot is pretending to like me this am so I figured I better pop up some pictures now before it changes it's mind! This weekend I crafted with some great ladies and wasn't in the mood, so I made cards and my Valentine treat boxes that I posted on the previous blog! This is one of the cards that I ended up making.  VERY quick and simple but the sentiment says it all!



The stamp is from Robyn over at My Pink Stamper and is perfect for this simple card!


The trick to black cards is to make sure you have something to write on in the inside ... I've done colored gel pens before to try to write on black and I smudge them ... everytime, so I used a Fiskers border punch to make a decorative insert to write on! The card size is the normal A2 and the minimal detail on the front will allow for normal postage (Remember when you  start to use square cards or those with extra embellishments the cost to send will go up because your local post office will have to hand process them!)

I hope everyone has a great day, and as always thanks for stopping by and following Crafting with Meg!
