Heartfelt Thanks

In a recent post, I shared a sympathy card I had made with just the outline stamp of one of the two-step images from the “Heartfelt Thanks” stamp set from Stampin’ Up.  Here is a card I made where I added color with the corresponding solid filler stamp.

I used Tim Holtz Aged Mahogany and Forest Moss distress markers to ink the outline stamps.  The solid stamp and greeting were inked with Forest Moss and Victorian Velvet distress ink.  (I created masks of the stem/leaves and of the petals so I could stamp each part separately to add two colors.)  I spritzed ink from the Forest Moss marker onto the stamped panel with my Tim Holtz marker spritzer tool.

The greeting is from the “Fabulous Flowers” set from Gina K Designs.  Card stock is GKD Dark Sage and white.  The printed paper is “Tan Floral Tapestry” by Paper Pizazz – Hot Off The Press.

The stamped panel was cut and embossed with a die from the Spellbinders “Classic Rectangles Large” set.

Here is a sample without the speckles:

The greeting on this one is from the “With Love and Prayers” set from Gina K Designs.

Penn Shaker Thank You Card

I’ve designed several Penn-themed thank you cards over the past few years and found myself needing another one recently.  I decided to go with a shaker card design for this one.

I hand-cut the split P from a piece of a rubber sheet (used to make custom gaskets) and mounted the pieces on EZ Mount Foam.  I stamped the two parts of my hand-made stamp on Gina K ivory card stock with Gina K In the Navy and Cranberry Tart ink.  I used a Tim Holtz Chipped Sapphire distress marker and the Tim Holtz marker spritzer tool to create the speckles.

The “thanks” was cut with the “In A Word: Thanks Cutaway” die (#WW031CA) from Winnie & Walter.

I used the “Die-namics Gift Card Window & Frame” die set and a plastic “Gift Card Pouch” to create the shaker portion of the card.

The red and blue paper is called “Patriotic Stripe” from Hot Off The Press and coordinated nicely with the red and blue sequins I found online.  Gina K Ivory and In the Navy card stock was also used.

Bud Blossom Thanks

This square note card features one of the stamps from the “Bud Blossoms IV” set (#3757) from Hero Arts.  It was stamped on white card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic Markers (E93, E97, W1, YG93, and 0).  I used my score board to emboss stripes on the background panel.  Black card stock was used for the mats and center strip.

The greeting is from the “Fabulous Flowers” stamp set from Gina K Designs.

Currently, the Mod Squad Challenge is “ready for spring” where we are encouraged to “make a Spring themed card with flowers, bunnies, pastels…anything Spring.”
