Small Thank You card

Hello!

Hope you are all doing well.

Today I am posting a card made out of remaining scraps.

The size of the card is 12.5 X 14.3 cms or 5 X 5 +5/8 inches. Since this was the scrap left over from some other project, I don't usually trim them unless the edges are damaged.

I have used Tent Fold for this card.

Thank You Card

I have used Negative of the die cut as the layer. I have doodled with white gel pen inside the scalloped circle which may not be clearly visible.

Insert

Inside the border has been punched using small border punch. The same has been used on envelope. I made the envelope myself as it is difficult to find ready made ones for odd sizes.

Hello Friends!

Hope you are doing well. Its very hot here since past three days. The temperatures are so high as if in mid summers.

Today's card is:

Thank You Card

I think I have made many cards using this particular MB dies. 

I love flowers. May be it is one of the reasons. May be when you buy something new, you have to play with it. May be I have very few dies and so I use it again and again. 

I think I have some more cards and bookmarks made using these dies.

Thank You Card

I have used A4 size card stock folded into half as base. 

The colour of the base card and the layers is as in the first image. In the second image, exact colours were not captured properly. Even the colour of insert is cream colour same as that of the layers on the front of the card.

A Small Thank You Card

Hello Friends!

Hope you are all doing well.

Its a sunny day today. Actually its very hot like in summer season with lots of humidity. 

Today I am posting a Thank You card which is simple and small in size  -  4.5 x 5.7 inches. Actually I have cut an A4 size White Ivory card length wise into half and the folded it.

This is an 'A'fold card.

Thank You Card

It has a cream coloured insert (matching the Antique Linen colour of the card) with punched border.

Card Insert

I made a matching envelope with punched border. 

I should have used the same design of border on envelope too. I think I missed it out. Sometimes when I am making more than one card, I try to make all the inserts at the same time. Similarly for the envelopes too. That's how I might have missed it.

A Big Thank You Card

Hello Friends!

Still raining continuously. Its all damp and temperatures have fallen quite considerably. Its like in mid winter. 

Weather forecast indicates heavy rans for next two three days. 

That means, we can't step out of houses. 

I was planning to go shopping for some essentials and completing some pending works as Corona cases have gone down considerably. Before the third wave strikes I have to complete certain must do works. But with this rain it is not possible. I hope it clears at least next week.

Well here is a card I made for my niece. I still remember the day. We just returned from the outing all exhausted after a long day. It was 10 pm. I was busy cooking dinner. Just then my niece got a call from school that she has to bring a big thank you card for a guest visiting her school.

This is no  surprise. Kids seem to remember their projects or other school work late in the night, which they have to submit it the next day. So parents have to toil and help them. It always happens like that. None of the reprimands or punishments work. Next time it is same again. Parents do keep stock of stationery and other such things at home to avoid shopping at that time. But still something is always missing. 

My niece asked me to help her make it. At that time of the day on Sunday no shop would be open for purchasing any material. But luckily as a crafter I have stash of lots of things. 

So both of us managed to make this card by digging out some material from my stash. 

Big Thank You Card

The base is a White Ivory Card A3 size folded in half (Portrait) and trimmed it a bit. Then glued Printed paper from JAGs. 

I then added the die cut Fancy Lattice. This die cut was already there in my stash (I had pre cut some dies for testing newly bought ones). I wanted to trim it but my niece just wanted as it was.

Then I added the sentiment stamped die cut using Timeless Rectangle dies. This was also cut and stamped previously. I always keep a bunch of sentiments ready in my stash just in case I need them suddenly.

We added some fancy buttons and floral stickers.

For insert I had to paste two A4 size white sheets one on either side and masked it with blue Plaid Tape. I did not have A3 size papers for insert.

We added some floral stickers on the insert. 

All in all my niece was happy. Next day she and her class mates added messages and presented it to the guest. Everyone liked the card. 

The card was done in a hurry and we were also tired. We could have done better had we had some time to prepare it. 

Please leave your comments and suggestions if any. They motivate me to create more.

Stay Safe! Stay Healthy!

Thank You Card

Hello There! Hope you are doing great!

Here it is still raining on and off. But today we have some sunshine. That's a great blessing. But it will soon rain again. 

I don't mind rains. In fact without monsoons we will not have water for drinking or for our agriculture. It is great for my garden too. But continuous heavy downpour is really difficult to manage.

Well here is another card. Again a thank you card. I have used three colours, white as base and purple and orange combo for the touch of colour. One of the ways to reduce my scrap stash.

I have lots of scraps of various sizes, colours and textures lying around. I have stuffed them into polythene bags. There is a lot of dust here in India and we have to keep everything in covered boxes or bags. 

In India we don't get much storage or organising items for craft materials. Even if we get the cost is too high. So we  are forced to manage with whatever is available.

Thank You Card

This card has plain white insert and a plain white envelope.

Hope you like this one.

Thanks a lot for spreading love and joy by visiting my blog and commenting. It means a lot to me. In these difficult times mostly locked down (self imposed) in our homes and fearing to hear about loss of your kith and kin, it is quite depressive and sad. It has been like that for the past one and half year. The future too seems uncertain. But we can only pray and leave everything to HIM.

Watch out for more...

A Simple Thank You Card

Hi Friends!

How are you all doing? Its quite cloudy here today. We may have heavy rains in a day or two due to low pressure.

Today I am sharing a simple Thank You Card. This card was made in one of my classes for demonstration. I usually prefer easy to make simple cards.

The base of the card is a very light pastel coloured card stock. I have used floral printed paper from JAGS 

I love this light coloured floral printed paper.But only thing is the size of print is big and can only be used for bigger sized cards.At least that is what I feel. 

For the insert, I have used two different shades of green coloured paper. Actually the colour of the top layer of the insert matches the floral printed paper. But here in the photo it looks a different shade.

This card has a plain white envelope.

Thank You Card

Hi Friends!

Hope you are all doing well and having great time. Well is quite hot here. Summer is almost at its last leg and therefore temperatures are unbearable. 

I am also taking a break. But not at all doing much because of the heat and humidity.

Today I am going to share another Thank you card.

I have used punch craft as well as dies for this card. 

The base is A4 size cream coloured card stock folded into half. It has glittery surface. Both are hand made. I try to use hand made paper or other things produced locally (Indian made) to support our local artisans. They require our support or else we may loose so many of our arts and crafts and locally made items.

I have glued dark brown card stock with punched borders. Again the top layer is same cream coloured card stock with punched borders.

I have cut out the top two labels using the Spellbinders dies and stamped the sentiment using brown ink and glued both of them using dimensional foam dots to give it some elevation.

This is the inside of the card. I have used the border punch on the four corners. This card has a plain white envelope.

Hope you like this card. Please do drop in your comments and suggestions if any. I would love to read them.

Materials Used:

• Light Cream coloured glittery hand made card stock 
• Dark Brown hand made card stock
• Yellow and Light Cream card stocks
• Thank You sentiment
