Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
I'm past due on getting thank you cards out for Christmas gifts.
Here's a few.
Using some embossed and lightly sanded foil with a Glimmered and Stenciled Butterfly.
Two from last year's January Calendar.
I stamped more flowers on the first one. So glad I wrote down what I used!
I won two packages of Washi Taper from The Peace on Earth Challenge in November.
One package had this beautiful glittery Washi. I used a NBUS sentiment set to
stamp, emboss and die cut the thanks. A very sparkly & shiny card!
On a happy note, my friend Bobby Hagen and her hubby stopped by for lunch yesterday.
We had such a nice visit and chatted so much that we forgot to get a photo.
Hopefully we can get together again while they're in NC.

Your sweet and thoughtful comments warm my heart!
All four cards are so well designed! Love the shine and glitter you’ve added to these and LOVE that you use your calendar pages for quicker cards. Beautifully done!
ReplyDeleteFour fabulous ways to send thanks, Bonnie! I'll admit to loving the two stamped with Full Bloom the most - something about that stamp tugs at my heart strings!
ReplyDeleteHow lucky you are to see Bobby! I haven't had the pleasure once since she moved... =[
A beautiful set of cards. Love the sparkle and shine. It is nice that you repurposed your calendar page for the pretty thank you card. Glad you had a nice visit with Bobby. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteFour brilliant thank you cards Bonnie and I love the upcycling of those on last years January page of your calendar, and the beautiful leaves embossed on the background and gorgeous foil with the pretty die cut leaves and also the butterfly over the top, and finally wonderful bright glittery washi strips with the great sized die cut sentiment...all fabulous. x
ReplyDeleteA Gorgeous set of cards Bonnie, clever too.

OMG..Thank you Bonnie for sharing all 4 of your beautiful Thank you cards and a list of all the supplies:-) How fun to be able to visit with Bobby and her husband. A wonderful way to start your creative year, my friend. Love and Hugs...Nancy
ReplyDeleteFour beautiful thank you cards! My favourites are the two with the Full Bloom stamp - they are so lovely in the red and green (makes them ideal for Christmas thank you cards). And the glittery washi tape is fabulous on the fourth card! What luck to get to visit with Bobby!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous thank you cards, Bonnie. The embossed foil is stunning and the washi tape card is so elegant. The stamping is my favorite. How fun you got to spend time with your friend, Bobby and her hubby. It's wonderful to meet up with other stampers.
ReplyDeleteI should be sending you a 'thank you' card, Bonnie. Lunch was wonderful and so was the conversation. I will definitely be up to visit again and we'll be sure to get a picture then. Your cards are beautiful, especially that foiled one. And the sparkly one with the glimmer sentiment we talked about.
ReplyDeleteLovely thanks you cards, Bonnie! A wonderful variety of thank you sentiments too!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely cards Bonnie - these are a feast of beauty for the eyes
ReplyDeleteStay safe
Blessings

Wonderful collection of thank you cards. I think the first one with that amazing embossing is my favourite. it is a good feeling once the thanks yous are done xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful mix of thank you cards, Bonnie! Love all the products and techniques you've used. They are all so pretty!! xx
ReplyDeleteFour wonderful cards and what a great idea to use last years calendar for January to make the two very pretty ones Bonnie x. Always great to catch up with friends x.
ReplyDeleteLovely selection of thank yous!
ReplyDeleteWOW! CAS card but so much is going on here !! I love how you used the green mirror cardboard to decorate the center of the first card. But as I went down this post my love grew with each new card !! So many stunning cards and the cards from last year's calendar just stunned me!

Beautiful collection of cards, Bonnie...especially all the sparkle on the last one! Love them all ~ xx
ReplyDeleteA beautiful set of thank you cards, Bonnie! The layered dry-embossed design is so fresh. I bought the TH Metallic Confections after all, so I'll use this technique next time I make the metallic 3D embossing card. Upcycling the last year's calendar is a wonderful idea. Now a receiver can enjoy the January page on the card. The glittery colorful strips are fun and bright! Glad to hear that you had fun over lunch with Bobby and her husband! It's so special to actually meet with your crafty friends, isn't it?
