Thank You Set for Grammy

Hi ya friends,
My Grammy asked me if I could make a couple of Thank you cards for gifts she received for Christmas, and of course, I did *Ü* But, since I had a bit of crafty time on my hands, I thought I'd make a set for her to have extras for when she needed them.

Here they are:
Since I was making multiples, I decided on making a simple design. 1) Die-cut the top panel with the Wonky Stitches die (Avery Elle). 2) Emboss each panel with a different embossing folder for interest & texture without much effort. 3) Die-cut the beautiful Thank You die (Impression Obsession) from craft foam & Metallic Platinum cardstock (DCWV). And adhere it all together. Easy-Peasy! I kept the color palette Neutral since I don't know who the recipients are. I used Nennah Solar White and Desert Storm cardstock.

Here's the next: Scales Embossing Folder (The Paper Studio)

Embossing folder: Candy Cane Stripe (Cuttlebug)

Embossing folder: Decorative Tile Set (Cuttlebug)

Embossing folder: Chevrons (Darice)

Embossing folder: Leafy Tree (Darice)

Here's a bad pic of the details & dimension:

Here's a pic of the innies: Left it blank for Grammy to write her message.

And I made an envelobox to store them.


Well, Grammy really liked them so now she would like me to make her a set of Birthday Cards too... yes, Grammy, of course... can you please pass the Chile Rellenos *Ü*

ETA: You can find the video tute I created for making an envelobox --->HERE.

Thanks for stopping by today.
Until next time...
