Thank You Card

Inspiration for this simple Thank You card came from Card Challenge #5, which is part of July 2015 Scrapfest on a Facebook Group I belong to.  I used the following items to make my card:

CTMH Colonial White Base, Outdoor Denim and Cashmere cardstocks.  Ribbon is from CTMH  Designer Ribbon in Outdoor Denim (discontinued), I used heat embossing on the stamped image to make it look more lace like. I also used CTMH Diamond Embossing folder and the pearls are from my stash.

Birthday Card

For this Birthday card I used CTMH White Daisy card base, Pixie, Pear, Canary cardstock and CTMH Green Glitter paper.  CTMH Black Exclusive Ink Pad, Washi Tape and flower are from my stash. I also used Stampin' up Star embossing folder.  Inspiration came from Mojo Monday's Sketch #257.
