I'm really not ready for the new stamps yet. While I've got Christmas carols ringing in my head I saw at Joann's Valentine's Day stuff already out. I wasn't ready to purchase any pink stuff yet. I'm still looking at the reds and greens of Christmas. The blinking lights, the Christmas movies and tunes of the season!
But I do need thank you cards and I wasn't sure if I wanted them to have a Christmas theme so I thought I'd take out one of the new sets that arrived on Thursday evening. The poor UPS driver was delivering overtime!
I chose the elephant stamp in the "Happy Heart Day" set by Stampin' Up! because it could be used for Valentine's Day or a Thank You card. The words around the elephant's head read: "To an unforgettable friend." It sounds like it could work for either occasion to me!!!
SO I got out the new decorative papers too and cut away! I actually used them but as I'm cutting the sheet I'm thinking the whole time to be careful with the cutting, making sure it's totally accurate so I can have some left. Left for what??? To hoard??? Yup, that's exactly it!!! LOL I am going to try my hardest to use up every sheet in these packages.
I think this is a cute Thank You card and I'm sure my friend will just love it.

I have a SUPER fun project to show you tomorrow!!! I showed it to some of the gals who came here to stamp last week and they all just LOVED it.
Thank you SO much for stopping by,

This is a very cute set, I love the new paper that came out in the mini.
This is so cute. I did not even place an order yet! Can't believe I have been able to hold off. Not much longer though if you guys keep doing this, lol. Great card.
I glanced at this stamp set in the preview cattie and wasn't sure if I'd use it much, but after seeing the stamp used for a thank-you card, I'm going to have to reconsider! You're a paper hoarder?! Welcome to my world! I'm still hanging onto 3 sheets of retired Holiday Thyme that I just can't bear to use yet. What's that all about anyway?! LOL!! LOVE this paper you used - what great vivid shades of pink! Nice card, TFS!
Beautiful! I can't believe you've gotten to this stamp set already! Wow! I just received mine in the mail, and I'm dying to get to it! But I've got to finish all my Christmas stuff first...
