Treasured Kindness Metallic Thank You

Greetings!

Having a thank you card on hand and ready to jot a quick note of gratitude and pop it in the mail is so important.  One of the great things about making our own cards is that it's easy to make sure we are prepared for any occasion.  The Treasured Kindness stamp set is just the set to have on hand for a thank you, thinking of you and more.  It has beautiful imagery featuring a Bonsai tree that is built with a combination of four stamps, so it gives you the freedom to choose your colors and customize your image. Photopolymer stamps, which are clear, make it easy to see right where you want to stamp so it's fun to create completed images from multiple stamps. 

The large die from the Seasonal Labels dies creates a great layer for the Bonsai tree and the Textured Chic Specialty Designer Series Papers (DSP) with their touches of gold provide the perfect background layer.  The richness of the colors are complimented even more by framing it all in Copper Foil Sheets and heat embossing the Thank You in Copper Embossing Powder.  Adding some Brushed Brass Butterflies provides the finishing touch!


Are you wondering where the Evening Evergreen 1/8" ribbon came from for the bow?  Hmm.  Read below in the "Here's How It's Made" section to find out!
