High Society Stationery: Double Patterned Notecards

It’s been far too long since the last High Society post…but I’m back with the same snark as always. Today’s set is a little different than the others, because this time around, I actually don’t know the price of the original. All I know is that is that I can’t afford it…and you probably can’t either. How do I know that? Well….keep reading.

Mixed Patterned Stationery | Damask Love Blog{What They Say} This clean notecard has the surprise of a colorful pattern lining the back. This bespoke design was created for a specific individual. Contact us to begin creating your own unique stationery suite.

{What I Say} A few things are guaranteed: death, taxes and when the price isn’t listed…it’s too expensive. “Contact us” is the equivalent to “Market Price” at a restaurant….only difference is that I can probably splurge on the $80 lobster, but I have absolutely no intentions of handing over my mortgage for your colorful pattern lining the back.

I was about 22 when I learned the “Contact us for pricing” lesson. I was paging through an issue of Lucky Magazine and came across a pair of shoes.  The accompanying text had a phone number and instructed me to give them a call for pricing information. Like a dumb dumb, I wasted five minutes of my life calling that phone number only to find out that the shoes cost more than the going rate for kidneys on Craigslist.

Fast forward…ten…um…I mean, five years and I’ll never fall for that trick. “Contact us for pricing” is rich-speak for “Don’t contact us at all unless you own a castle.” Thankfully, I have plenty of crafting supplies to replicate their “colorful pattern lining the back”! Sadly, I have no supplies for making shoes, so I won’t be able to replicate those awesome pumps I saw in Lucky magazine.

Mixed Patterned Stationery | Damask Love BlogFor my version of this cards, I went with the “spirit” of the design rather than an attempt at mimicking the exact same pattern. On the original card, I love how there appears to be one pattern embedding within another – and I love the use of one color throughout. With that in mind, I created my own notecards.

Mixed Patterned Stationery | Damask Love Blog{1} Select a stamp with a matching die cut, then stamp the image that you’d like to embed within the pattern.

{2} Create die cut from Post-it Craft Paper and cover your stamped design. I find that it’s easier to stamp then mask the image. If you choose to mask the area then stamp, I found that it’s difficult to get the image perfectly lined up within the negative space.

{3} Choose a background stamp and stamp the entirety of the card.

{4} Peel away the mask from the card.
