Saying Thanks with This Homemade Card

It is easier to send a card to say "Thanks" than to write a thank you letter. There are lots of thank you cards in the shop but I always prefer to make my own.

Somehow, recipients find these handmade thank you cards more endearing and precious and will treasure and keep them.

I received many of these homemade cards and it always give me a beautiful warm feeling thinking of the time and effort my friends put into making these cards.

Here's one I made using Making Memories foam stamps - Jersey Alphabet Stamp Set.

Card Making Supplies :

1. Making Memories foam stamps - Jersey Alphabet Stamp Set

2. Pink Dye Inkpad

3. White Cardstock

4. Light Blue Cardstock

5. Pink Cardstock

6. White Blank Card

7. Scissors

8. Glue

9. Foam Tape or Foam Dots

Card Making Instructions :

1. Ink foam stamps with pink dye ink and stamp on white cardstock.

2. Trim around each alphabet leaving a white border.

3. Using foam tape or dots, attach the alphabets THANKS onto the light blue cardstock. (refer to photo above for positioning.)

4. Layer onto pink cardstock.

5. Trim and layer onto the white blank card.

Tips: If you do not have the right shade of pink color cardstock, just sponge the same pink dye ink onto the edges of a white cardstock. Just rub the inkpad directly onto the white card. You can do the same for the light blue card but you will have to cover the whole card.
