Looking for versatile free printable cards? Check out this cute girl drawing design that makes a great everyday blank notecard.
Today I wanted to share this cute girl drawing I created in the form of a printable notecard. This is a black and white design that is easy for anyone to print at home. Just print actual size and cut your paper in half. Then you can fold and have two notecards ready to use.
The great thing about this free printable cards design is that you can color it yourself and customize to your own needs. For the minimalist in all of us, use it plain, because it’s the message inside that really matters.
If you are more DIY and papercrafty, try decorating and embellishing the cards up. You can also make a crafternoon out of it with your kids, letting them color up a bunch of notecards to stash as ready-made stationery.
I hope you will enjoy using this design, because I’m always doodling up little girls, seems to be my default doodle!

Looking for free printable vintage valentine cards that aren’t creepy or cringey for modern day times? Download these updated designs!
Recently I came across this article of Sexist Vintage Valentine’s on Buzzfeed and it reminded me how the look of vintage valentine’s are cute – but they are often cringey and embarassing! I suppose they reflect the times, but the sentiments are usually not appropriate and certainly not what I want to say to my friends and loved ones.
So I thought it would be fun to riff off the vintage vibe and just design my own valentine cards. These new designs are definitely modern vintage, but they still have that old world paper feel. Now with a much more straightforward sentiment, I think these printable valentines would be great for your significant others as well as friends.
Just send them a note of love and care… especially during difficult times, because it’s nice to hear from friends and know they care. Download and print these at home, however many copies you need to send out. There are two different designs that can be printed trimmed and folded into traditional cards.

For personal use, feel free to download the PDF that contains both card designs for printing. Just click the link below and save to your computer.

Let me share a few ways to wrap gift cards for last minute gift giving plus free printable star patterned papers that you can print and use instantly!
As we get closer to Christmas day, gift cards make it easy to quickly check off your list, especially for hard to shop for friends. Are you are on the last-minute band wagon grabbing gift cards as a last resort? Or perhaps, you actually enjoy giving gift cards, because they allow you to show your gratitude without burdening people with another generic novelty gift item?
Personally, I really love the idea of gift cards if you don’t have a very specific gift in mind for your recipient. It gives THEM the power to choose what they truly would like and eliminates the random knick knacks and junk that ends up cluttering the house.
The problem is how to package up the gift card as an actual pretty gift.
You have to admit that it’s nice to unwrap an actual gift during the holidays. The element of surprise is always a delight. But even just the aesthetics of packaging up a gift, shows that you put effort into it. I think it’s nice to add a special handmade touch to gift card giving, so check out the ideas below for wrapping them up as gifts.
Even though gift cards are easy to pick up at the store and have pretty designs on them already, I still like to put them in a pretty envelope at the least. Or even better, is to package it in a pretty box or container that you can traditionally wrap up. The extra effort of packaging it up really does make the recipient feel special and loved. And for those who are making multiples for teachers or co-workers, it’s definitely a good idea to spruce up the gift cards with a handmade component.
Well, I love paper printables and the easiest way to package up a gift card is to put it in a small box and wrap it up like a traditional gift! Even wrapping up an envelope can be a nice idea, because there’s still that element of presenting a nicely wrapped gift with a ribbon on top.
So I designed a set of simple, elegant, printer-friendly holiday stars papers to share with you. They are easy to print at home, as many copies as you might need for wrapping up small items like gift cards.
