Washi Tape Thank You

endless-thanks-1016Is there still a cold spell in your neck of the woods?  We’re warming up a bit here in Denver and tomorrow we might hit 50 degrees!  That will feel so good after single-digit and below-zero temperatures!  🙂

This card feels warm and springy and will be perfect for those holiday thank you notes that you’ll want to send out.

It’s been so long since I actually designed this card that I’m not sure where I originally found the idea.  I know that I liked that the design used washi tape.  I love the look washi tape but can never really figure out how to incorporate it into my cards.  This was definitely a fun design.

I used the Endless Wishes stamp set on this card and it coordinated well with the Affectionately Yours washi tape.  I just love the font in this stamp set!

I started with the strips of washi tape.  To get the leaves peeking out from behind the tape I simple covered (masked) the tap with a piece of computer paper which is light-weight and thin.  You don’t want to use a thick piece of card stock because you may have trouble getting the image to stamp right next to your mask.

I did have to cut out the Calypso Coral florals by hand….no punches or dies for this.  🙁

I should try this design with some of the other washi tape sets.  I bet the card would look totally different.  Hmmm….

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

 

3″ x 3″ Thursday: Endless Thanks

IMG_7683Thank you!  Thank you!  Thank you!  We never say this enough do we?  I am blessed and have so much to be thankful for including all of you!

This little 3″ x 3″ note is one that I recently enclosed with my customer’s orders.  I try to enclose a note whenever they place an order.

This little note includes a few of by new favorite things.  Ok…they “things” aren’t that new but they’re new as my favorites.  🙂

I’m in love with the font in the Endless Thanks stamp set.  There’s just something about it.  I’m also in love with the Watermelon Wonder color.  I don’t think it will actually take over Melon Mambo as my absolute favorite Stampin’ Up! color but it comes close.  What is your favorite Stampin’ Up! color?

Speaking of colors….don’t forget that the 2014-2016 In-Colors will be leaving us at the end of May.  Now is the time to stock up on these colors (especially the ink refills!) before the Retired List comes out.  Don’t miss out!

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!
