Bright Blossoms Thank You Card

I have only just begun to play with this Bright Blossoms set.  When I saw it at a Stamp a Stack earlier this spring I knew it was going to be a set I was going to order right when the catalog came out!  So at my next stamping open house I did indeed order it.  I have no regrets either!  It's a fun set and I have seen LOTS of great cards made using it.  In fact this is one I saw that I new I had to copy!  I saw it at Julie's Kewel Stamps-n-more blog.  It was such a bright and cheery card and it gave me a happy feeling inside just looking at it.  I'm sure it was because of the colors and calmness of the card.  It wasn't busy with tons of bright colors, it had just the right amount to be tastefully done and very attractive to the eye.

Her card used some green Baker's Twine where I have the 1/4" grosgrain ribbon.  You sometimes just have to use what you have on hand!  And her background had the new Fancy Fan embossing folder.  I am going to a Stamp-a-Stack tonight and I of course will be placing an order. I will be adding that folder to my order for sure!  It's very pretty.  But the dotted background did work well too. It's still got that simple and clean look to it.  I SO love embossing folders. They add a lot to the background of a card.  

This was a very fun card to make and it really didn't take all that long to do either.  I could see myself making these for a swap.

Thank you SO much for visiting today,
Wanda
