Thank You Card Set with Pam Bray


Hi! Pam here today sharing with you a fun, sweet Thank You card that is super easy to create. I embossed a piece of grey cardstock with the Cheerful Embossing Folder (Elegance Collection) and adhered it to a card base with Double-Sided Tape. I added a piece of square pink cardstock that I embossed with the Crazy Daisy Embossing Folder (Fine Designs Collection). I love the look of using two different embossing folders together.


Next, I added a patterned doily, that I cut with the Ivy Set Doily Die (Fantasia Collection), and a small patterned rectangle that I cut with a Scallop Rectangle Nesting Die, to the front of the card. I love how the patterned die-cuts add a pop of color. To finish the card, I fussy cut a few flags from pattern paper using the Precision Scissors, stamped on a sentiment, and added them to the front of the card with some fun embellishments.


Why make one card when you can make a set?! You never have to many Thank You cards.

Thanks for stopping by today!
Hugs, Pammejo

Floral Wreath Cards with Gloria

Welcome! Gloria here today sharing a pair of cards that I created using the Couture Creations Dream Boat 3-in-1 Sets today. This one is called Floral Wreath. Each set in the collection features one A2 (4.25 x 5.5 inches) embossing folder, matching cling stamps, and thin die templates.

 

This was such a beautiful set to work with. I ended up creating two cards - one with a masculine feel and one with a feminine feel.


I stamped the image with white ink, then heat-embossed with white embossing powder. Once the embossing was cool to the touch, I dry embossed the image with the matching embossing folder. (You can see I had a bit of trouble lining it up, but that just adds to the "charm!") I fussy cut the bottom edge of the pattern, so I could add a bit of printed paper.

I stamped the medallion image into the center, then die-cut some of the matching shapes out of paper to add to the stamped shape. The "Thanks" sentiment is also part of the set.

 

I used the same technique for this version, except I stamped with watermark ink and heat-embossed with Ranger Distress embossing powder for a more grungy look. Once I embossed with the folder, I sanded some of the areas to reveal the lighter core of the paper.

I die-cut some printed paper for the center. I fussy-cut the bottom part of the embossed image and slipped the music note paper behind it. (The sentiment is NOT part of this set.)

I hope you get a chance to work with these fun products!

Hepburn Embossing Folder Week - Thank You Card with Dana


Hi! Dana here today sharing a thank you card featuring the Hepburn Embossing Folder from the Couture Creations Elegance Collection. I embossed a piece of Core'dinations cardstock with the A2 Hepburn Embossing Folder and added a subtle gold shimmer to the cardstock with a light coat of Pearl Ex watercolor.


Once my cardstock was dry, I mounted it on a piece of white cardstock and then  purple cardstock card base. I topped the card with some chipboard, flowers and a stamped tag, and then finished my card with a gold bow.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
