Spring Bird & Rose Border Thank You Cards

Good Morning and TGIF!!! I'm so excited the weekend is almost here. I live for the weekends, but who doesn't right...LOL?!? We are taking our girls apple picking tomorrow and will also be picking out our pumpkins to carve. I can't wait to watch our girls pick their own apples for the first time, drink a cup of hot apple cider as we walk through the orchard, and of course take tons of pictures. I was in need of a couple QUICK thank you cards, so I sat down last night and made these. Both cards are made with Bazzill Peach Glow cardstock, Bazzill Patina cardstock, and patterned paper from the Crate Blue Hill Collection. I colored in the images with Copic markers (I own a total of 9 Copic markers...LOL). For the first card I used the Spring Bird stamp from Whipper Snapper. It's hard to see in the photo (you can click on the photo for a larger view), but I added some Crystal Stickles to the flower and the bird's feathers; very sparkly. The "thanks" sentiment is from the Posie Doodle set by Stampendous. To finish the card off, I added some satin ribbon that I picked up from Michael's. For the second card I used Rose Border set by Rubber Soul. This set is probably the prettiest and most versatile set that I own. The set comes with 8 different sentiments that fit inside the main image and who doesn't love roses?!? The link to this set on the Rubber Soul website does not show a picture, so I have posted a picture of the set for you here. To finish this card off, I added a couple of prima flowers and a little silver "bling". Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope everyone has a WONDERFUL weekend!!!

Rose Border Thank You

After seeing this post on Michelle's blog, I just had to have this stamp set. The set is called Rose Border and it's by Rubber Soul. Not only is it beautiful, but it's also very versatile. The main image is the flower vase and border. The set comes with 8 different sentiments that fit perfectly inside the border. For this card I used Regal Rose and Certainly Celery. The Regal Rose layer is embossed with the Cuttlebug d'vine Swirl folder. I colored in the image with inks and a blender pen, added some May Arts ribbon, and finished it off with some adhesive pearls in the corners. I hope everyone has a great weekend!
