Let’s bust a myth right now—you don’t need shelves full of craft supplies to create beautiful, handmade cards. In fact, I’m here to show you how you can make three stunning cards that will wow anyone on your list—guys, gals, kids—using just three ink colors, matching cardstock, and one fantastic stamp set.
Watch the video below! I’ll take you step-by-step through the process of creating these great designs using the Ocean Friends stamp set. Think nautical vibes with lobsters, crabs, and seaweed for a clean, classic look.

Quick & Easy
I love that this project is perfect for all skill levels. If you’re a beginner, you’ll appreciate the simplicity. And if you’re a seasoned stamper, you’ll enjoy the creative challenge of doing more with less and making a quick card!
Don’t forget to stamp on the inside of the card and the envelope to make a perfectly coordinated set! Start creating cards that look like they came from a boutique, not a bustling craft store.
