Sending Christmas thanks

 

Today I made a couple of these thank-you cards for wonderful Christmas gifts - one for my kids' grandparents, and the second for the lady I help out. I started with a Whisper White card (4-1/4" x 5-1/2") and added a layer of Pool Party card stock. You might recognize the designer paper even though it's retired. The only stamp set used is also retired and called Four You. I used a tag topper punch on a 2" x 3" piece of Whisper White for the tag and added the ruffled ribbon and button with twine.

 

I find there's always someone to thank and something for which to be grateful. I'm excited to start my family's Good Things jar - a jar where we'll write a weekly good thing that happened to us, date it, and put it in a jar. Then on New Year's Eve 2016, we'll sit down and go through our Good Things.

 

Here's wishing you a wonderful 2016 full of your own good things.

Four You embossed birthday card

 

This sentiment from the Four You stamp set is the only stamp used for this birthday card.

 



 

I started with a Whisper White card and added a layer of Hello Honey card stock on top. Then I ran a piece of Whisper White card stock in the Lovely Lace embossing folder through the Big Shot. I think this is so pretty. I added a knot of Hello Honey ribbon around the white layer, and a hand-cut banner.
