Mini Thank You notes

Thanks so much for all the well wishes over the past few days. We're very excited! I'm due mid-September and yes, we are going to find out if it's a boy or girl. :)

Today I thought I'd share with you a few mini thank you notes I made recently. I sold a few items in my Etsy shop so wanted to include thank you notes with the orders. I was super excited when I found out that I'd sold a couple of bookmarks. It's kind of a fun to sell something that you handmade yourself! :) But it made me realize that I needed to make some more thank you notes to have on hand.


My shop (like my blog) has sunshine in the title so I wanted to make something bright, happy and sunny. I decided to use the PTI Daily Designs set--the images are so versatile and I love the designs. I held off on ordering this set for the longest time and am so glad I finally ordered it! I used the PTI Lunchbox note die which is the perfect die to make mini thank you cards.


I stamped the tag in Versamagic Mango Madness and the sentiment in a dark blue Ocean Depth.

I also stamped a little hidden sentiment under the flap that the recipient won't see until they open it.


It's kind of fun to add little extra details and "surprises" especially when it's a simple card.

On the inside, I added the tree stamp from Daily Designs to accent the little message I'll personalize for each card.


Thanks so much for stopping by today. Hope you have a beautiful, sunshine-filled St. Patrick's day! :)

All are PTI unless otherwise noted.
Stamps: Daily Designs, Mat Stack 4 Collection (sentiments)
Paper: SS white
Ink: Versamagic Mango Madness, Ocean Depth
Other: Lunchbox note die

I just love these! I am a huge fan of simple thank you note cards and you did a fabulous job with these. I think I may need the lunchbox die now that I've seen this!

Talk about injecting a ray or three of sunshine into anyone's day! So lovely! I don't have this stamp set or die. Me thinks I need it now after seeing your magic worked with these. So inspiring Little Momma!

Ok, you might have just convinced me that I need this die! How fun to use it with my Etsy shop orders too!! So cute!! Thank you for sharing!

The stamp from Daily Designs fits perfectly onto the die. It looks so great. I love your hidden message too - I'm going to have to try that too. I have the die but the stamp set is another one on my ever growing wish list. Thanks for sharing a fun design.

These are so cute and I am sure will be well appreciated when buyers receive their orders.

I'm not familiar with that "sun" image, but I love it! Your little thank you notes are wonderful, Monica! I know that I always appreciate when a hand written "thank you" is included in my purchases, even if just written on the packing slip. These are really extra special!

I don't know why, but I never thought of this die for little thank you cards. What a great idea. I am going to add that to my cart right this very minute! Hope you are feeling well. Can't wait to see if your expecting a boy or a girl.

Great idea they are very cute! Love how you stamped on the top of the opening too.

Dana said...

Congratulations again Monica, and also on selling bookmarks in your shop too! Woo hoo!
These cute TY notes are adorable.

So cute! How thoughtful to include a personal thank you to your clients. These turned out great. I have a question - will a gift card fit in the lunchbox note die? I have been on the fence about it...

Melissa said...

What sweet little thank you notes! Perfect fit with your name!
