“Avant Garden” is one of the sets you can choose for free with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-bration. I used it here on a Whisper White notecard and envelope to make a very simple thank you. I simply stamped the flowers and leaves on a square cut with the Stitched … Continue reading
I didn’t make my November kit into Christmas cards in time to mail them, so I decided to make thank you cards instead. The cards are smaller than a regular card, more like a note card, so they make perfect thank yous. I used a greeting from “Thoughtful Banners”. The … Continue reading
The holidays are a great time to deliver thanks to special people. I used “Perfectly Wrapped” with This Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper. They look like they were made for each other. The wood grain pattern measures 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″, and the diagonal stripe is 2″ x 5 … Continue reading
You wouldn’t necessarily think of Watermelon Wonder as a fall color, but I was recently reminded of its upcoming retirement so that makes me want to use it while I still can. And these trees from “Totally Trees” look great in every color! Have a great day!
