Thank You & Deer Card
Create A Critter all the way on this one baby!!! DCWV greenstack cardstock. Simple and cute and FUN!!! Totally my kind of card. 5.5" x 4.25 card base, 5" x 4" greenstack, 1.5" green and 1" navy strip - trimmed with MS Punch. White Gel pen for "Hi" CAC deer cut at 3" found on page 30.
I just love black paired with another color. Usually my fave is when its with red. But I am digging this purple now too.
By now you know I like my thank you's to be simple. So thats what you see here.
Just embossed the bottom edge of the purple and sanded lightly to allow the white core to come thru. Embossed the word thank you, tossed on a bow. Done. Love it.
Wish my embossing skills were a bit better, but I am working on it! I will go check into other inks like Agnes suggested THANKS AG!

ReplyDeleteLove it...I wish I can find the Greenstack paper.
ReplyDeleteI love the deer card! It looks really organic!
ReplyDeleteLove the cards! The deer is so cute, and that shade of purple is divine with the black.
ReplyDeleteI love that deer, he is just so adorable. I have the 'greenstack" and have never used it.. and your 'thank you' card is very elegant looking.. I think 'thank you' cards should be simple..
ReplyDeleteThey are both great! I love the patterned paper in the deer card, and the rich color of the second one. Embossing takes practice. When I first started I had a great deal of trouble. I remember one project I tried I could NOT get a good looking embossed image, then later on I used the same ink, embossing powders, and stamps to do the exact project with no troubles. It took me awhile to get a feel for it - you'll get there! :)
