During these trying times of COVID-19, I am especially thankful to those making sacrifices for the good of all.
Many Thanks
Today’s “many thanks” card was inspired by the Fusion challenge. You can see where I found my idea from the photo and sketch.
First, I used an Ornate Layers Die to give detail to Basic Black Cardstock, which I layered on the card base. Then, I cut a Basic Black, floral strip, using an Ornate Borders Die.
TIP: I snipped an end to make it fit nicely across the card front.
Next, I used a Stitched Shapes Circle Die to cut a circle in the layer. Using the same circle die, I cut a circle from Peaceful Poppies Designer Paper to inlay.
TIP: I spent some time finding the right poppy.
“Many Thanks” is from the Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set, cut with a Stitched Rectangles Die, and made a bit shorter to fit properly. I used the heat embossing technique; stamping the sentiment in VersaMark, sprinkling with White Powder, and setting with the Heat Tool.
I’m also sharing with Seize the Heroes.
