Today’s project began with a card sketch challenge, and developed into a thank you card. I was delighted to see how the Sending Smiles flowers fit the sketch.

Note of thanks

Here is the sketch by the Paper Players.

The flowers, stems and leaves, are from the Sending Smiles Stamp Set, stamped in three colors of ink: Mango Melody, Daffodil Delight, Pale Papaya, and Parakeet Party. The sentiment, “a note of thanks,” is also from the stamp set, stamped in Starry Sky Ink. All were cut with Sending Dies, and I added Iridescent Pearls to the centers of the flowers.

For the background, the top third of the card is Basic White Cardstock, 5 1/4″ X 2 1/4″, embossed with the Timeworn Type Embossing Folder.

Next is a 5 1/4″ X 1″ strip of Sun Prints Designer Paper, which highlights the “notebook” edge created with a Blossoming Happiness Die. To complete the sketch, there is a Sun Prints stripe, 5 1/4″ X 1 1/4″.

My May Host Code Gift

Type the current host code (found beneath my profile picture) in the box provided, on your order of $75.00 or more, before tax and shipping, and I will send you the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder in June. 

“The delicate design of the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder is subtle enough to match any project but it does not hold back on beauty. Leave the embossed look neutral to emphasize its texture, or get creative and use watercolor to accentuate the florals.”
