Pocket Silhouette Thanks

Here's another thank you card I had fun creating for one of my February hostesses.

I started with a base of Bashful Blue card stock, then added some Old Olive card stock that I put through the Big Shot with the Stampin' Up! Backgrounds 1 Texturz Plate.  It doesn't show up very will in the photo, but "texturizing" the card stock really adds a lot of dimension.  Then came Melon Mambo card stock punched along both edges with the Scallop Trim Border Punch free with a purchase of $50 during Sale-A-Bration.  Next — time for some stamping with Pocket Silhouettes stamp set with three different stamps and three different colors.  I punched each one out with a 1-3/8" Square Punch then adhered them with Dimensionals.  The sentiment is stamped from the same stamp set with an added bit of an image stamp in the corner.  I placed this behind a square frame from the Styled Silver Hodgepodge Hardware kit and tacked it into place with Bashful Blue Brads from the Soft Subtles Brads collection.

How lucky am I!

I received two thank you cards in the mail last week!  It's so fun to get hand stamped cards and I was so thrilled, that I had to share.

The first is a card from my very talented team member, Lena Thompson, of Waterloo, NY.  I love the effect Lena got with the Upsy Daisy stamp set by stamping the main image twice.  It give the flowers a 3D quality.  And I love the color combo Lena used!  So pretty!

This card is from a Stamper's 10 Club member, Marge Ellis, of Naples, NY.  Marge used Pocket Silhouette stamp set as well as a circle punch to create the big scalloped edge on her card.  Simple yet effective — great card!

Thanks, ladies for making me smile!  So nice of you to think of me.
