My sweet friend, Janene, gave me the kitchen towel that inspired this Kate Spade knock off card set. Janene also hosted our family for Easter. I told her I would make her a card set as a hostess gift. I always have trouble deciding what kind of cards to make for other people and hadn’t made them yet, even though Easter was a month ago. Since Janene liked the towel, I’m confident she will like this card set.
The card set includes six note cards and envelopes and six optional tags. I’m not sure if she’ll want to use the note cards plain or with a sentiment, so I put dimensionals on the back of the tags and she can have fun putting them on if she wants them.
I’m proud to tell you that I did not case this box from anyone. It’s a Stamping Mom original! Here’s the link to the directions to make the gift card box.
Several of you have asked about the flower stamp. It is from the Stampin’ Up! Paper Pumpkin April 2016 free set called All About Everything.

Today was therapy dog day and Super Man was out of town. That means I got to wash the pups. We wash them in our kitchen sink. Here they are after their bath.
They did a great job at their therapy dog visit. One gal who works there spent some time petting them and told us it really brought joy to her 13 hour work day. Not sure why it was 13 hours? I assume she has two different jobs back to back? Anyway Maya and Molly are happy to bring joy to anyone who needs it.
Super Man got home from his trip tonight and Ryan came home from college. It’s going to be a great weekend. Hope you have fun weekend plans.
Blessings,
Beth 🙂
Thanks Patricia. I’m glad you like the sentiment tags. I thought of it out of desperation. I want my friends to LOVE the cards I make for them, but I never know if they want a plain notecard or if I add a sentiment, what should it say? This way they can decide what sentiment they need and where to place it on the card. Makes it kind of fun for them too!
Beth, I like this card. My favorite is your idea of including messages backed with dimensionals
. So easy for recipient to take off backing and add to note card. Definitely now in my tips folder. ThanKS
Thanks so much Tonya! Here’s the link to the directions. http://stampingmom.com/directions-for-kate-spade-inspired-gift-card-set/
I actually just sent you a PM on FB asking if I could CASE your card set! I just subscribed to your blog rather than just having it bookmarked. I look forward to learning how to make the box! TFS such a great Kate Spade knock off card set! Love it! <3
Thanks Laurie. The flower stamp came from the Stampin’ Up April 2016 Paper Pumpkin. The ink colors are Night of Navy and the retired Yo Yo Yellow. I think any color combination you use will be adorable. I used Yo Yo Yellow to try to match my Kate Spade kitchen towel as close as possible. I’d love to see a picture if you are inspired to make a card!
Hi Beth, I love love your card set. What stamp set did you use and the colours of ink. Thanks so much..super lovely
Hi Robin,
Yes, I plan to post instructions for the box later today. Maybe we should make some when you visit in July!
Thanks Ruth! Can’t wait to see what you make!
Beth, what a fantastic card set! Love the idea of adding the sentiment tags. Did you make the box? If so, would you share how you made it?
What a beautiful gift for your friend, Beth. I feel inspired to try something similar!
