I had a co-worker ask about thank you cards and I had just recently received these adorable chicks from Stamping Bella and I saw THIS card and ideas started running amok!
I pulled out the little chick delivering an envelope, Reverse Confetti Cuts THANKS, the U from Verve Visual's You and I set (looks like it may be discontinued - sorry), the thin stripe background stamp from Impression Obsession, THIS and THIS die and some paper scraps - I have those galore - and set about making a few different color combos. Today I'll show you the green one; then over the next few days I'll show you the blue and pink cards - they are all identical; the green just has a smaller piece of pattern paper for the front. ;)
Here's a group shot I shared on Instagram.
I had the toughest time finding a way to make the 'thank' part work - as you can see from the Confetti Cut, I only used a small portion of the die; I finally ended up cutting it from vellum and layered it (slightly offset) on to True Black (2 cards) and Smokey Shadow (1 card). The U was stamped with the thin striped stamp mentioned above. The chick was colored with Copics, I added a white highlight and glossy accents to the heart of each. Super fun, super simple.
Thanks for stopping by!
HUGS!
