Hello!
How is your week going? I hope well! My hubby and I have had a busy but lovely week. His dad, uncle and aunt were in town for a few days and it was such a great time. I must admit I am very fortunate to have the most wonderful in-laws. (Not a lot of people can say that!) His family is so nice and laid back...talk about easy to get along with...I felt like I was the one on vacation!
After the family left I was able to dabble in the craft room for a bit. I pulled out my new pad of paper- Basic Grey's Little Black Dress- and made a couple of cards. The cards were completed in no time because they were easy to put together. (Gotta love quick cards!) Today I will share the thank you card I made. The stamp used is from Quietfire's set of four thank you stamps.
The cursive sentiment seemed to match the patterned paper perfectly so I had to use it. :)
The oval frame is Spellbinders Opulent Ovals. On the cut out sentiment and oval is Tim Holtz' Distress Ink in Tea Dye. I considered dyeing the seam binding in Tea Dye but I decided instead to keep it as white and let it pop off the card. Inside the oval frame is a bling flourish and some feathers.
Thanks for stopping by! Have a good day!
Hugs,
Kathy Jo
