I have two thank you cards to share that went off to friends. The first one uses an embossing plate that usually too fussy for me, but it seemed an appropriate background for the three butterflies. Because it's white on white, it still satisfies my CAS sensibilities.
The embossing folder is an old Cuttlebug one that I just gifted to a friend in my latest purge. The butterfly die is Papertrey Ink, and the sentiment is from Penny Black's "Salutations." I'm linking this card to the current Addicted to CAS challenge: Butterfly.
Quite some time ago, Jacky emailed me to say she thought the Clearly Besotted stamps were ones that I would like. Now that Simon Says carries them, I've added a couple sets to my collection. Jacky was correct, I love the Clearly Besotted stamps and am particularly taken with these simple tulips.
I embossed them in white onto Tim Holtz's watercolor paper and then watercolored them and added the sentiment from the same set, "Friends Forever." I die cut the piece with Simon Says "Stitched Rectangle," an mounted it on a Raspberry Fizz (PTI) card.
This card's off to be entered in the Simon Says Monday Challenge: For the Love of Plants.
