Perfect Thank You

This is the card I made using this card for inspiration. I've had this piece of Doodlebug paper for quite awhile now and it was time to make a "girlie" card. The stamp is from Inkadinkado and the inside is stamped "thank you."

Flower Flourish

I love the bright colors on this card. They are SU Melon Mambo, ColorBox Violet and SU Pacific Point. The Inkadinkado Dot Flourish is stamped with VersaFine Black Onyx. The color swipes are from SU Work of Art and the flowers are from SU Petite Petals, punched out with the coordinating flower punch. 

Dot Flourish

This card was simply to make but looks so elegant. I simply made a circle stencil using a Spellbinder circle die and sponged ink onto the paper. The colors are Powder Puff Lemonade, SU Pumpkin Pie and SU Old Olive. Then I heat embossed an Inkadinkado Dot Flourish with some espresso embossing powder. Easy peasy!

Flowery Thanks!

Here's a simple, fun card. I ran part of it through the Cuttlebug and punched out some white flowers with a SU punch. The brads are from a Recollections set. The sentiment is from Inkadinkado stamped in SU Pacific Point.

Heartfelt Thanks

Here's a simple and pretty card. The GCD Studios papers are from the same 6x6 pad that I got on clearance. With an Inkadkinado sentiment and some Triveni bling, the papers really shine.

Happy Halloween!

I'm not big on Halloween cards, but I did make a card with some orange. I liked the layout of this card, and decided to make my own version. It uses a Cuttlebug embossing folder and the stamp set/punch Petite Petals from Stampin' Up. I used SU Pumpkin Pie ink for the flowers and Memento Cottage Ivy for the Inkadinkado sentiment.

Ball of thanks

I've been doing different versions of the same layouts lately. Here's one of them. The first one uses a Queen & Co. rhinestone baseball and the other uses a bunch of Inkadinkado sentiments. The stripes are Queen & Co. washi tape and the circles are done with Spellbinders.

Blooming Thank U

This card features the Stampin' Up Petite Petals stamp set and punch, along with SU inks Pacific Point, Rich Razzleberry and Pumpkin Pie. I used an Inkadinkado sentiment and found the layout idea here. The orange ribbon is from my stash.

Out of This World Thank You

I've seen this layout/sketch several times and thought it would be a good one to show off this Creative Imaginations paper. The circles are done with Spellbinders and the Inkadinkado sentiment is stamped in SU Real Red. 

A Beacon of Thanks

I love lighthouses and this card made me get out my Rubbernecker lighthouse stamp and ink it up. The striped layer is a piece of Basic Grey that I actually purchased for the other side. I used some scraps for the banners and the ribbon is from my stash. The sentiment is Inkadinkado.

Thank you banners

I wasn't sure all of these patterns worked together, but the hubby said they did. I used a Darice folder on some Core'dinations paper then sanded it to bring out the red from the black. The banners are made with DeNami silver paper and a scrap piece of Basic Grey. The Inkadinkado sentiment is layered on a piece of DCWV chevron paper. All of the sentiment layers were cut with Taylored Expressions. The black ribbon is from my stash. Oh, I CASE'd this card here.

Thanks for always being there

It was fun picking out paper to make my version of this card. I used papers from a DCWV 6x6 pad that I bought on Black Friday last year. The Inkadinkado sentiment and its layer were cut with Spellbinders. This is just so dang spring-y looking that it makes me smile.

Circles, dots and many thanks

I've had this 6x6 Authentique pad for awhile and finally found a card to use it on. My inspiration can be found here. The circles were done with Spellbinders and the border punch is EK Success. Those dots are Pearl Pen done with a very light touch. I used an Inkadinkado sentiment on the banner.

A Swipe of Thanks

I love the simplicity of this card I found on Pinterest so I wanted to try it myself. With my new ColorBox Cats' Eye brown ink stack, I chose a soft brown for the swipe and a brick brown for the Lawn Fawn chevron stamp. The Inkadinkado sentiment is stamped in Fresh Ink Chocolate. I added some American Crafts chestnut colored brads. It's mounted on a piece of Darice Pearl Red paper.

Many Butterfly Thanks

Today I have a card using OWH bonus sketch three. I mounted some Me & My Big Ideas paper on some purple Bazzill then cut out some shapes with a Spellbinders die. Those shapes were cut in half and stamped with an Inkadinkado sentiment. The card still looked a little plain, so I added some Triveni bling.

Scrappy thanks

I had some scraps left over from using some 6x6 Creative Imaginations paper and figured they'd be perfect for a banner card. I just added some Taylored Expressions die cuts and an Inkadinkado sentiment to finish it off.

Thank U

This particular card started here and became this card. I have all kinds of ribbons that I rarely use and thought this would be a good card to use some of it. I used a Cuttlebug folder to emboss it and some Spellbinders dies for the shapes. The Inkadinkado sentiment is only attached to the ribbon so it has a little movement to it.

Much Obliged

This card features a stamp from Rubbernecker that I forgot I had. Don't you love finding those? It's also a perfect stamp to use on Seize the Sketch #11. I stamped it on white card stock using VersaFine Onyx Black, used an embossing folder to give it a bit of texture and mounted it on black card stock. The Inkadinkado sentiment is stamped on white card stock with SU Pacific Point and mounted on some blue Bazzill. I used a Sizzix die to cut out the blue and grey Bazzill stars.

Penguin Thanks

Isn't this Memory Box penguin cute? He'd make a great thank you card for children to send as a thanks for a holiday gift. Remember when we had to write them? I had to do it the day after Christmas before I could do anything else! I hated it back then, but I can see now what an important lesson I was learning.

The image and Inkadinkado sentiment are stamped with Memento Tuxedo black on white card stock then layered with black. The red and blue are Bazzill and the patterned paper is Teresa Collins. The circles are done with Nestabilities. I did the blue first, thinking it would reflect water, but I ended up liking the red one better.

World Card Making Day!

Welcome to my stop on the Operation Write Home blog hop for World Card Making Day! Our goal for this hop is to make a thank you card using one of the OWH sketches. To get back to the main page, all you need to do is click on the picture above.

For my card, I chose OWH sketch 122. The white/brown paper didn't have a company name on it, but I do know I got it last year on sale to use this year for winter/holiday cards. The dark purple is Bazzill and the white is SU Whisper White. I embossed the two thin stripes with the Cuttlebug Snowflakes folder. The brads are from The Paper Studio. The Inkadinkado sentiment is stamped in VersaFine Onyx Black.

 

I hope you're finding lots of inspiration along the hop!
