Well, I actually went into my "happy space" the other day after months of neglect. I came out sneezing from all the dust that was on all my machines and paper. So after I dusted everything off, I sat down to make some Thank You cards. Let's just say that it had been so long since being in there, I couldn't find some of the supplies that I "knew I had" and still haven't found them - HA!!!! But I know they're in there somewhere!!!
I decided to use my Silhouette Cameo to make the Thank You cards for a couple of reasons.
1. Easy peazy
2. Been so long since I'd made anything, I couldn't come up with an idea of my own.
I downloaded the Thank You card kit from the Samantha Walker gallery and quickly began cutting out all the different pieces. I used my Cuttlebug Snowflake Embossing Folder to emboss the top layer of the card and then cut out the snowflake from glitter paper. I was all sparkly from the glitter paper after making the cards - teehee!
I assembled the cards after all the pieces were cut. I was able to find a blue brad to attach the snowflakes to the cards.
All in all, I think it turned out pretty cute for my first card after months of non-creativity!! Thank you for stopping by today, we appreciate your visits and your comments. I hope you'll come back tomorrow. I have a birthday card that I made for a "fishing fanatic" to show you.
