Free Printable “Yo” Mini Card + SVG Cut File

September 09, 2014 // kristen // 2 replies

I have to admit that I’m not much for formalities and, while I can appreciate a more formal greeting or sentiment, I’m pretty casual with my own friends and family. Having said that, would I send this card to my grandmother? Probably not. But I think that it would be a hit with my friends, especially those who were fans of “Friends”. What can I say? Joey Tribbiani has kind of been my muse lately.

You can download the “Yo” mini card (4″ x 3″) below, and I’ve also provided an outline version if you want to take markers – I used Sharpie Metallic Markers, and I think the result it pretty darn cool – or colored pencils or what have you and color in the “yo” to make it your own.

And, for those of you with digital die cutting machines, I have a free SVG cut file, too!
