Thank You Card

Hi Friends,

 

Happy Friday!  Hope you all have a nice relaxing day to welcome your week-end. 

 

Today I am sharing with you a Thank You card that I made.  I don't normally send out Thank You cards- but I love how this one turned out.  The card is so bright and fun.  You could simply change up the sentiment with any that you choose. 

I have step by step instructions on how to create these below.

What To Do:

1.     Stamp flower image from the clear stamp on the white cardstock base with the embossing ink pad.  Pour the embossing powder onto the stamped images and heat set with the embossing heat gun.

2.     Cut eight strips of paper from the paper pad in to various widths and lengths: ¼ inch x 4 ¼ inch, ½ inch x 4 inches, ¼ inch x 3 ¾ inches

3.     Glue each strip down to the bottom of the card base.  Layering on top of each other.

4.     Optional:  Sew two vertical lines on the left of the card and one horizontal crossing the vertical lines.

5.     Punch out 2 Accent Frames from white cardstock.  Cut the acetate down to slightly bigger than the center of the Accent Frame.  Glue the 2 Accent Frames together with the Acetate in the center, creating a window.

6.     Glue glitter on top of the Accent Frame with the 2 way glue pen.

7.     Stamp “Thank You” onto white cardstock with black ink.  Cut the Thank you apart to create two pieces. Ink around the edges with blue ink.

8.     Stamp the flower four times, once with each color Blue, Orange, and Green.  Then Twice with Pink.  TIP:  For a Two Tone effect: sponge ink around the edges with one color then in the center with another.

9.     Cut each flower out except the green one.  The green if for the leaves. 

10.  Glue down the frame to the top center of the pattern paper you glued down already.

11.  Layer the flowers around the frame.  Use the foam dots to get more dimensions.

12.  Glue Gem stones into the center of the flowers.  Tuck one of the leaves under each of the flowers.

13.  Glue down with foam dots the “Thank” and “you” onto your card.
