As always, Rhiannon was a very lucky little girl and got lots of fabulous birthday gifts. This called for making lots of Thank You cards to send out to friends and family. I decided to match them to the invitations I made and so I used tea Party DP and a relatively simple layout. Making these cards reminded me yet again how much I LOVE my Big Shot!!
Stamp Sets – Oval All
Cardstock & DP – Certainly Celery, Almost Amethyst. Tea Party DP
Inks – Lavender Lace
Accessories – Big Shot, Flower layers #3 die, Certainly Celery and Pretty In Pink ribbon, Dimensionals, Scallop Edge punch, buttons with sparkly thread (non -SU)
I also had a chance to play with my new Herb Expressions set. I really love the images in this and thought it would be perfect for making my mother-in-law’s birthday card. I pretty much CASEd this straight from the catalog as I loved the layout and colors used.
Stamp Sets – Herb Expressions, Happy Everything
Cardstock & DP – Mellow Moss and Elegant Eggplant textured, Very Vanilla.
Inks – Mellow Moss and Lavender Lace markers, Ekegant Eggplant
Accessories – Linen thread, button (non-SU), paper piercer and mat pack
I took part in a great demonstrator’s swap over on SCS (Not attending Convention new demo swap) and got my cards back yesterday. There were some very talented ladies in this group, including Teresa and Mel from my SCS blog group (check out their blogs using the links on the right), and I loved each and every one of the cards I got back.
I had planned to post a picture of the card I submitted now that the swap is complete but I can’t find it. If I can track it down, I will post it tomorrow.
These are lovely! You did a great job on the thank you card. It’s so pretty. I like the clean lines. TFS!
