Easily Customizable

This card is so easy to design!  Just choose one bold color!  Use it on the front of the card and the envelope.  Leave everything else the same (card base, inside and sentiment).  You only need one color of ink…black!

PLEASE NOTE:  The square card is too small to mail.  This card & envelope set is designed to put on a package or gift bag.  If you want to mail your card, you can put it in a regular A2 envelope or you can convert it to a 5″ long envelope which is the minimum length for the USPS to mail your letter!
