Thank You Cards using Stampin' Up! products

The theme for this month is Thankful. Whilst we don’t celebrate thanksgiving here in the UK I do love to send Thank you cards - any excuse to make and send a card! There is always something or someone to be thankful for so it’s just nice to be able to recognise it.

For these Thank you cards I used the Bundle of Love Speciality Designer Series Paper, this beautiful paper is double sided, on one side it’s either Blushing Bride or Soft Sky and on the other side it’s cream and gold.

So I started the cards with a base of Very Vanilla thick cardstock and used a mat of either Soft Sky or Blushing Bride. Then I embossed the sentiment on the bottom - ‘I am thankful for you’ this comes from the Painted Harvest Stamp Set. Then I cut some small strips from the DSP and adhered them above the sentiment. I then punch out three circles using the new Starburst Punch in all three Designs. These were adhered to the front of the card using two of the coloured side and one of the gold side.

Finally, I die cut the smaller flower from the Flourish Thinlet dies and adhered this on top of the two strips of DSP at the bottom of the card before adding a gold Faceted gem to the centre. I was rather pleased with how these turned out and I really hope the recipients like them too.
