Thanks card

Happy Thursday!! Wow, this week has flown by...almost the weekend already!! The weather has been so nice here this week...it's about 80 today with a light breeze. I love having the windows open. I wish it would last through the weekend, but tomorrow the high is only supposed to be 50.


I have a card to share with you that I made for a friend who recently sent me a gift :) The paper is so pretty...it's from Prima Marketing's Nature's Garden stack. The base is a Spellbinders Grand Rectangle, followed by two sizes of Labels 17. All of the edges were inked with Old Paper Distress Ink. The ribbon is from May Arts, and the crystals are from Recollections. The center purple layer is a Spellbinders Fancy Tags Three, with a Fancy Tags One on top. "Thanks" is from K Andrew Designs Winged Things stamp set. All K Andrew Designs stamp sets are on sale now for 60%...hurry and purchase yours before they are all gone.


The butterfly is a Spellbinders Fanciful Flight die. It is covered in Martha Stewart Crystal Fine glitter and popped up with foam tape so it looks like it is flying off the page.

I am entering the card in the following challenges:
  1. Crafty Friends Challenge #9 - All Things Glitz and Glam
  2. DL.Art Thankful Thursday Challenge - Linky Party
  3. Sunday Funday #2 - Linky Party
Thanks so much for stopping by!! I'll have more Halloween projects to share with you this weekend :)

    Everything is bee-utiful. Like the layering of the tag sentiments, flourishes & jewel embellishing. The new challenge at MFP Simple Salutations is Fruit or Veg so if you come up with something with that theme stop by & enter.
