Simple Chic Sunflower Thank You Greeting Card

This card was a personal challenge for a 'Single Layer'. No ribbon, no layers, and no embellishments. The card features a simple chic sunflower. By stamping the petals in different colors, you have the ability to create a layered look. For this card I used More Mustard and So Saffron. The simple tag 'thank you' in chocolate ship completes the look.


- Card measures a standard 4 1/4" by 5 1/2"
- The exterior message reads: "thank you"
- The inside is blank

Oversized Scallop Medallion Thank You Card

This card features a oversized scallop design. The scallop is created by tracing a oval shape across the bottom of the white center panel. The scallop is divided by double stitched chocolate ribbon and golden medallion. The layered circles creating the medallion is a great way to accent any card or scrapbook page. To complete the look, the Thank You Message is right aligned in a lower portion of the card.

Sponged Lattice Design Card

This card utilizes a great technique traditionally used on walls, Sponging! It's started by obtaining a cut out of a design. In this case, I used the lattice cut-out from Stampin' Up. Then, by using a sponge dabbed on your ink pad, sponge all over and around the cut-out. Simple sponging over the Lattice die-cut creates a beautiful design.

Heavy vs. light sponging can easily change the intensity of the coloring and appearance.

I would also recommend sponging in multiple colors. It can create a fabulous blending and shading of colors.
