Thanks Again!



Here are MORE thank you cards! I made all of these on Saturday! Yes, I really need to do something else...and I finally can take a break from these!

Once again, I used retired dsp as inspiration. The first set uses Cottage Wall dsp, and features old olive and rich razzleberry card stock and embellishments. There is also a touch of daffodil delight. In fact, the Free 4 All challenge on Friday was called Hello Sunshine. I was outlining one of my image panels (Fun & Fast Notes) with my daffodil delight marker, when it slipped! Aack! So, I just colored in a big bright sun!! Easy fix!

The second set features Bella Bleu dsp, crumb cake, bordering blue (retired), very vanilla, and not quite navy card stock. I have this bag with punched out shapes...and sure enough, I had some butterflies made with the big shot and beautiful wings embosslit. I was only going to add the butterflies on a few cards...but decided to cut more out and use it on all 6! I also used some basic pearls and retired earth element brads, which included not quite navy. The sentiment is from Thank You Kindly.

Hope these inspire you to sit down and make a big stack of cards!!

  2. Those are both great sets! My eyes just popped at the second set (<3 crumb cake!). I'm less fond of green and purple but I would buy those ones, they're so pretty.

    Thank you for sharing!

  8. Kim,

    I love both sets for different reasons. I love the color scheme on the Bella Bleu ste, but I love the way you embellished the Cottage Wall set. They are both great in different ways.
