I’m trying to get a head start on thank you cards for the gifts that my girls get this holiday season. Here is my first card, I thought I’d make it a clean and simple one.
Here is the list of products that you will need to make this card:
- Greeting Card Kids (119887 wood, 120633 clear)
- Curly Cute (117014 wood, 120510 clear)
- 2-3/8″ Scallop Circle Punch (118874)
- Candlelight Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper (126901)
- VersaMark Pad (102283)
- Early Espresso Stampin’ Emboss Powder (128980)
- Heat Tool (129053)
- Blush Blossom (100037), Real Red (100052), Garden Green (119701), Daffodil Delight (119677) Stampin’ Write Markers
- Real Red Classic Ink Pad (126949)
- Early Espresso Card Stock (119686)
- Very Vanilla Card Stock (101650)
- Stampin Sponges (101610)
- Stampin’ Dimensionals (104430)
I started by stamping the image of the girl with VersaMark ink on Very Vanilla Card Stock. I sprinkled it with Early Espresso Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed it. The I colored the image with my Stampin’ Write Markes, punched it out with the 2-3/8″ Scallop Circle Punch and sponged the edges using Real Red ink. Then I punched a second scallop circle from Early Espresso Card Stock and I layered the two circles. Next I cut a strip of Candlelight Christmas Specialty DSP to 1-3/8″ x 5-1/4″. I cut a strip of Early Espresso Card Stock to 1-1/2″ x 5-1/4″ and adhered that to the back of the DSP. Then I cut a piece of Very Vanilla Card Stock to 4″ x 5-1/4″ and I stamped the sentiment in the upper right corner in VersaMark ink. I sprinkled it with Early Espresso Stampin’ Emboss Powder and I heat embossed it. I assembled the card by adhering the Very Vanilla panel to an Early Espresso card base. Then I adhered the DSP strip to the lower card front and I adhered the image to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I love clean and simple cards, especially when I’m making several. Hope that gives you a head start on your thank you cards too!
