Three Adorable Farm Animal Cards
Hello! Jen Kotas here today with three cards featuring the Justine’s Farm Collection by Justine Dvorak. This is a sweet collection of five press plate sets, four featuring adorable farm animals. One of the best things about BetterPress plates is that they can be used with the BetterPress System and the Glimmer Hot Foil System! When I’m already using either system, I like to make up extras, even if I don’t plan to use them yet. This is especially true for any sentiments.

Justine’s Farm Collection Introduction with Justine Dvorak
The Farm Collection was born from my deep love for the countryside. It’s all about the peaceful, simple life—think rustic barns, rolling fields, and cozy farmhouses. I wanted to bring that farm-inspired atmosphere into a stationery line that feels both nostalgic and fresh. Whether you’re writing a letter, making notes, or just jotting down thoughts, this collection aims to evoke the warmth and tranquility of farm life. I hope this collection resonates with you as much as it did with me while designing it. I will be sharing videos on my YouTube channel where I walk through the design process, share tips for using the templates, and show you how…
