These two dishes are made in many regions of India and offered to Gods on auspicious occassions.

Simple Thank You Card

Hello Friends!

Today I am sharing another Thank you Card. Its very simple and easy to make.

Thank You Card

The base is White Ivory Card stock A4 size folded into half; that is A5 size. This is also a tent card but in landscape orientation. 

I have scored 5 lines at the top of the card using scoreboard and scorer. I think they are faintly visible. Then I adhered the printed paper tapes with glue so that they don't peel off. 

I have used the butterflies punched out from mauve and white card stock in some other project. I trimmed (square) the  left overs of punched out pieces, layered them and used it here. I used dimensional foam dots to give it some dimension.

Actually I have scribbled some scrolls on the white cardstock using white gel pen, from which the butterfly was cut. But it is hardly visible in the image.

Next I stamped out the sentiment on white card stock using two inks for shadow affect. I cut it into oval shape and adhered it on mauve coloured oval die cut and then glued it to the card.

This card has simple white insert and a plain white envelope.

So what do you think of the card? Hope you like it. Please leave your comments/suggestions.

Thanks a lot for all your love and support.

Materials Used:

• A4 size White Ivory Card Stock
• White and Mauve coloured card stock scraps
• Printed Paper Tapes-Mauve, Pink and Green
• Scoreboard and scorer
• Butterfly Punch
• Sizzix Framelits Die Set – Ovals #657563
• Sentiment Stamp
• Purple and Light Pink Pigment Inks
• White Gel Pen
• Purple coloured half back pearls
• Plain White Insert
• Simple White Envelope
• Glue and Foam Dots

Thank You Card

Hello Friends!

Today I am sharing with you another Tent Fold Card which is also small in size. Its size of 5.9 X 3.9 inches or 15 x 10 cm on folding. I have made this card with left over scraps. So it is not of standard size.

Thank You Card

So here it is. The card has white background. The pistachio coloured printed paper is soft and subtle, against which I wanted a striking coloured sentiment and butterfly. 

That's why I used orange and magenta coloured pigment inks for colouring the sentiment die cut. The sentiment was cut using Spellbinders Phrase Set 2 Dies. It  is  one of my favorites. The die cuts are big and chunky.

The butterfly was cut from the coloued stock cards using I O Fancy Butterfly Dies. It has two dies one background and one intricate  one.

I think magenta and orange colour combo is bold but beautiful, though both are strong colours. In small dose it grabs your attention specially on a subtle background.

Thank You Card-Insert

This is the insert with punched border.

Thank You Card-Envelope

Here is the matching envelope with punched flap. 

I think the card turned out beautifully. Simple and easy to make.

On second thoughts even with out the butterfly, the sentiment die cut alone would have been a great focal point. Next time I will try out that with some dimensional foam.

Hope you liked my card. Please do drop in your comments/suggestions. 

Thanks a lot for all your love and support. Please do keep supporting me if you like my work.
