A Beachy Thank You Card

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for Craft Roulette #301 whose parameters were: an appreciation card, apple farm colors, silhouette element and old [craft] product. I used Waffle Flower Beach Days dies, stencils and stamps along with a Hero Arts sentiment stamp to create this card.

Watch the process video below to learn how this card was made.

Cardbase: I used a purchased American size A2 (4 1/4×5 1/2-inches) kraft cardbase and matching envelope.

Postage Stamps: Using the stamps and stencils from the Waffle Flower Beach Days collection along with their Postage Collage die and stamp set, I created the beached themed postage collage seen in the video above. (See below Materials Used for all the ink colors used.)

Sentiments: “Thank you for your kindness” is from the Hero Arts Kindness stamp set.

Envelope: The panel card fits into an A2 (4 1/4×5 1/2-inches) size envelope with the back flap stamped with an anchor seal “I hope you have the best day” in black.

A Jungle Postage Stamp Thank You Card

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for Craft Roulette #240 whose parameters included a card for a helper, cereal box colors, jungle element, and a paper sack.

I choose to make a thank you card with a paper sack for an itty-bitty gift, stenciling tropical flowers and a large moth that you might see in a jungle. (Please note that after I completed the process video, I decided to add some cancellation stamps to the front of the card. So they are not mentioned in the video, but they are Waffle Flower stamps.)

Watch the process video to see how I made this card.

Cardbase:  Cut a 5.5 x 8.5-inch piece of white cardstock and fold in half to form a 4.25×5.5 top-fold A2 size card.

Sentiments:  The front sentiment “Cheers to you” is from a BetterPress plate and die set while the inside foiled “Thank You” is a Spellbinders Glimmer plate die cut with a Waffle Flower Postage Collage rectangle die. The “Itty-bitty gift stamped on the paper sack is from the Craft Roulette Stamp set.

Envelope:  The card fits into an A2 (4.25x 5.5-inches) size envelope with an extra moth stamp on the back flap.
