Now that Christmas is over it is time to bring out the Thank You Cards. I make a special thank you card every year to mail out for my son and I. I just want to make sure those who sent gifts know we appreciate them. Today I was able to carve out some time to design an make all the cards I needed this year.
Check out all those bears and trees….
Here are the two versions of the card I made. I was inspired to make my purple background after seeing a card on Instagram by Hippofee. I used a retired stamp set called Swirling Stars. The bears and trees are from WINTER SKIES which is a Lawn Fawn Stamp Set. The Thank You and curved dashed border are also Lawn Fawn. My thank you cards works well with HEART 2 HEART‘s last challenge of the year…. Wish Upon A Star.
I used Lilac cardstock for the mat and Thistle for the Thank You. I used copic markers to color the trees and scarf. I stamped Swirling Stars with Versamark ink and then heat embossed with White embossing powder. I then sponged the background using Lilac, Thistle and Pansy inks.
For this version I used Bluebird cardstock for the base and Sapphire for the Thank you. The background was crated the same way using Bluebird and Sapphire inks.
Happy Crafting!
