Goodbye to All Things Thanks

Hello, Crafters.

This is another stamp set I’ll be sorry to see leave! Each month I make Thank You cards for my online customers, and stamp sets like this are so very useful! This is the first time I’ve used this actual stamp. When I make Thank You cards for my personal use, I use our notecard and envelopes which are smaller than our regular A6 cards. Today’s sentiment would have been far too big for the notecards, and would not have looked attractive. On the other hand, on this A6 card it looks fabulous! Although the daisy I have used today is from a forthcoming stamp set called Daisy Lane, there is a daisy of similar size in the current Daisy Delight Stamp Set. Whichever stamp set you use, the small daisy needs to be fussy-cut! I stamped over a layer of Blusing Bride Cardstock (CS) with the small daisy stamp and Blushing Bride Ink. I chose a Blushing Bride design from the Tropical Escape 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (DSP). Next I cut it so it was half the size of the top layer. Before I adhered it down, I cut a layer of Whisper White CS to layer it on. Although I know the Baker’s Twine I used for the bow is Stampin’ Up! I’m not sure what colour it is! It looks different colours in different lights! I took one fairly long strand, folded it into three, and then tied a triple bow! It wasn’t as fiddly to do as you might imagine! LOL!To add a bit of bling to my card, I adhered three Metallic Silver Pearls in the top right hand corner! I gave my card some dimension by adhering the sentiment to my card using Dimensionals. This is the fourth of five cards I’ve made for my customer’s order. You may have noticed the cards I’ve made for her are getting more and more embellished. Tomorrow, I will share the fifth and final card I’ve made to complete her order! My alarm is set for 6 am this morning because I have a dental appointment at 8.30. I’m making sure I leave myself enough time to order the Hugs from Shelli Paper Pumpkin Kit before I leave home. When I’ve finished at the dentist, I’ll be driving over to pick my daughter Vicki up, because we off out shopping today! I’m so looking forward to it, but I must order the Paper Pumpkin before I go out because I think it will sell out before I get home! Well that’s about it from me today. I hope you have a wonderful Wednesday, and I look forward to being back with you tomorrow! In the meantime, happy crafting.
