I needed to make a thank you card for a special friend who is doing me a big favor. I wanted to make a card with a bit more pizzazz to it than just a few layers and a "thank you" attached. I surfed the net and found a fun card that I copied a lot of the elements in it. You can see that card here. I did make some changes though. I added a scallop to the background circle layer.
I used the "Timeless Textures" set for the lacy filigree in the background. The original card had splatters. I did like the splatters, but I thought the filigree thing would look more elegant with the roses. I stamped off using Sweet Sugar Plum ink.
I stamped the flowers using Pirouette Pink and Sweet Sugar Plum inks. I fussy cut each one out. I stamped the leaves using Pear Pizzazz cardstock and Wild Wasabi ink. I fussy cut those out. And for those pod things, I stamped them using Pear Pizzazz ink. I colored in the top with Daffodil Delight and the bottom part using Pear Pizzazz markers. And again, I fussy cut those out.
For the ribbon piece, I cut a 1" x 3" piece of Whisper White cardstock. Then I cut a 1-1/4" piece of Sweet Sugar Plum cardstock for the layer behind it. I used the "Banner Triple" punch and punched one end of each. I taped the layers together and trimmed the top part as needed.
The words are from the "Teeny Tiny Wishes" set. I used Rich Razzleberry ink and I punched it out using the "Classic Label" punch. I also punched out two more using Sweet Sugar Plum cardstock and I layered one on the top of the word piece and one on the bottom.
I used a lot of Dimensionals on this card. There's a lot of depth to this card. I'm pleased at how this card turned out. I think my friend will like it too!
