Many thanks beautiful bunch

Happy New Year crafters!  I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and are all set for an awesome, crafty 2016!

I make so many thank you cards I don't always have time to take photos, they're usually out of the door before I have a chance to do so.  Here are a couple of cute 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" cards from early December. Notice the coordinating envelopes?  I used SU's 2015-2017 In Colour envelope paper.  The base card, DSP and envelope are in Watermelon Wonder and the ribbon and dotty accents on the envelope and tag are Delightful Dijon.

The stamp sets used are Another Thank You and Beautiful Bunch.  The flower is punched out with the coordinating Fun Flower punch. I have listed all supplies used at the bottom of the post.

Many thanks

I generally write my thank you message on a tag. Sometimes I make a 'pocket' to hold the tag, here I used part of a punched flower in Delightful Dijon. Many thanks for visiting x

A merry little wish

A couple of teepee cards to show you today.  They are really easy to make.  You just need three squares, score each one diagonally from one corner to the opposite corner then fold on the score line to form a triangle.  Open flat and overlay one square over the other so that a straight edge meets a diagonal score line - as you can see in the last photo below.

I used 4" x 4" whisper white card stock for these. The DSP is from Merry Moments, cut a 1/4" smaller, so 3 3/4" square, cut in half diagonally as you will only need to decorate one half of each base card.  The completed card folded in half fits in a regular C6 envelope.

Stamp sets used are Festival of Trees and Lots of Joy. There is a tree punch to coordinate with both sets.  The punch and Festival of Trees stamps are available as a bundle, saving you 15%. I heat embossed all the stamping in gold - the trees on cherry cobbler card stock.  The gold washi tape used as a border is from the Winter Wonderland set of tapes.

Thank you for stopping by x

Lots of Joy

A couple more Christmas cards and tags to share with you today using the Lots of Joy stamp set in Real Red, Old Olive and Whisper White.  The cards measure 3 1/2" x 3 1/2".  I used marker pens to ink the Noel stamp in the two colours.  The embossing folders used are Softly Falling and Woodland.

Christmas card

The envelopes were made using the new 12" x 12" red envelope paper, available in the autumn/winter catalogue.  I got four envelopes out of one sheet as this size card only needs a 6" square piece of paper for the envelope - made using the envelope punch board of course.

Oops, I used the tree stamp from Wonderland on one of the tags... just had to.
