When I was asked to create this blog post, I was thrilled! Write about Simple Sentiments? Are you kidding? Sign me up! Our Simple Sentiments make card-making a snap. With a couple of clicks of a mouse you can print out these beautiful sentiments! Oh, and did I mention that they’re FREE?
I have to say that while our sentiments are simple to access and print, the designs are anything but simple – I prefer to call them Beautiful & Simple Sentiments. The majority of them include illustration. The illustrations and greetings can create an instant focal point for your projects.
Today I’d like to spotlight a card created by Go-to Gal, Betsy Veldman. The card features the ‘You Take the Cake’ sentiment from our March/April 2011 issue. The timing couldn’t be better because it’s Betsy’s birthday today! Happy birthday, Betsy! Thanks for sharing your talents with us and inspiring so many with your beautiful work!
Why not take a page out of Betsy’s book and rock a few sentiments yourself? Okay, I dare you. Click HERE to download the following sentiments:
And while you’re at, why not enter our March/April Simple Sentiments Challenge? Simply create a project using one of the sentiments you see above and upload them HERE. In this gallery you’ll also find additional projects made by the Go-to Gals and editors using these sentiments. This three-week challenge will run until midnight (MDT) on March 31. Three winners will receive a free subscription to Paper Crafts magazine or special issue of their choice AND some fun paper crafting product (to use with our Simple Sentiments)!
I can’t wait to see what you create with these amazing images!
‘Til next time…
Happy creating!

Betsy’s cards are always some of my favorites. Happy Birthday Betsy!
Love how she printed it out on the different patterned papers. Great idea!
Thanks for sharing!
this is an awesome! REally great job with this!
Happy birthday to Betsy!! I am such a fan of her style!! If I get set up with a new PC in time (no printer to work on and catch these sentiments) I’d love to give it a go.
Happy Birthday a day late, Betsy!! I love seeing your cards in all my magazines–you are so talented! I’m not very skilled with the computer, but may get brave and try something with one of these sentiments. Thanks for the inspiration!
Happy Birthday Betsy!!! I hope it’s a wonderful one.
I love this card!!! So fun!
Thank you for the reminder that Simple Sentiments are available! These are darling.
