Another Thank You Card



I made another thank you card using a BEAUTIFUL Deco flower background stamp by Basic Grey/Hero Arts  and a great versatile thank you set called Thanks A Bunch!  My friend Angela gave me these sparkling little silver and white ornaments and they have been sitting there too cute to use. But I decided it was time to put them to good use by making some holiday thank you cards.


Here's the recipe:
I clear embossed the background.
To showcase the snowflake I die cut a circle and then framed it with some kraft card stock
I attached the snowflake to the white card stock using scotch tape
A lovely bow below with the sentiment also embossed finished it up
Popped and ready to serve! (sorry, been watching cut throat kitchen on Netflix)

I think I am going to have to give in and get a lightbox. My photos just are not consistent and the light here is odd. You can't see the glimmer of the snowflake very well at all! BUMMER!

    Clear embossing on black cs, what a genius idea!! Absolutely love the effect and the rest of the card design is just as fabulous. This goes straight on to my Pinterest Board so I can look at it again and again!!!!

    The embossed background beautifully highlights the gorgeous snowflake. Love the chevron ribbon! (I know what you mean about a lightbox - I wish I had one.)
