money is a concept. it's an abstact idea. an idea is a notion that exists in yer head. abstract means that it doesnt actually have any physical reality anywhere.
A note is just a physical reminder and proof that the abstract idea took place. It's a means of exchange. its a storeage device for abstraction.
exactly the same as QE.

QE is creating money to buy government and corporate bonds to encourage corporate lending and thus stimulate the economy. When (if) better times arrive, the bonds can be sold back into the market to get the money back.
