Thanks for Being There

Here's a thank-you card I made for someone special...



I coloured a white card base with green cardstock and rounded the corners.  On lighter green cardstock, I stamped a tall-grass background in green and the sentiment in black and rounded the corners.  For the image, I stamped Garden Cat on vellum, coloured with pencils, rounded the corners, and attached to the card with eyelets.  Lastly I embellished with three purple flowers, attached with gem-filled brads.  Here are the supplies used:
  • Stamps:  Garden Cat (Hero Arts F716), sentiment (Inkadinkado), tall-grass background (Stampin' Up! Inspired by Nature)
  • Ink:  StazOn Jet Black, Stampin' Up! Certainly Celery
  • Cardstock:  Recollections, Stampin' Up
  • Vellum, flowers, brads, eyelets:  Dollar Store

  5. You used a lovely grass stamp for the background. I like the cat on vellum, too. Looks like some of my white cats that live here on our farm. Thank you for sharing your project with us at The Perfect Sentiments Challenge.
