Silhouette Thanks

Published by Julia Stainton at 6:03 am under Card Designs, Cornish Heritage Farms

With my kitchen totally out of commission…I needed some thank you cards for my very special aunts who have been helping out. We’ve been spoiled with Sunday dinners out the past three weeks in a row as well as a few other meals. I am most grateful! This design was quick to put together with my favorite stamps (Silhouette Blooms 2), some patterned paper scraps on my desk and a sketch challenge from Di Hickman. I turned it on its side for a fun twist. I really went with a dotty theme on this one. Dotted ribbon (Creative Impressions), dotted paper, little Dew Drops, a big round button and rounded corners. :)
