Thanks In A Row

Hello everyone,

I've a really fun thank you card today which has taken advantage of a number of different challenges. Sunday's Card Positioning System sketch was the starting off point. There is an 'Anything Goes' challenge at The Paper Players this week. Tuesday's My Time To Craft challenge is to use either dry or heat embossing. Finally, Friday's Res-Q Challenge is to 'Get In Line'.

The background paper is Stampin' Up More Mustard textured with the Cuttlebug Oriental Weave dry embossing folder. The patterned paper is BasicGrey Pyrus. The sentiment, Stampin' Up Warmest Regards, is stamped in Early Espresso on Very Vanilla and layered on a piece of Not Quite Navy. The embellishments are rust Oregon Raindrops.

I love this card. I wanted to do a thank you that was a little more masculine. I'm not sure if it has worked but I'll be able to use this card regardless. I love the Oregon Raindrops on the rows of pears. I think it looks really cool.

I hope you enjoy this card and come back to SPI again soon.

Sketched Valentine

Hello everyone,

Today's card is based on yesterday's Card Positioning Sketch. There are just so many possibilities with this sketch but I'm rather stuck on Valentines at the moment.


The background paper is K & Company BW Sweet Talk Pattern Hearts. The ribbon is Offray. The sentiment is Stampin' Up For a Friend stamped on a scrap of Shimmery White and highlighted with Crystal Ice Stickles.

I couldn't resist this background paper. The glittering hearts are just so appealing.

I hope you enjoy this card and come back to SPI again soon.
