Thankfully Blooming With Love

I think this is the last thank you card I need to get out in the mail this week. Good thing too, I'm running out of week!!! LOL

I just LOVE this image from the Stampin' Up! "Blooming With Love" set. I do like the wheel barrow too but this image is the one I tend to use the most from that set. I wanted to keep the colors here soft and I had a piece of card stock left from the last card I made so I thought Bordering Blue would be the base color for this card. I had some scraps of the Pink Pirouette and I just ran with those colors. The flash bounced off the photo so it looks a bit washed out and hazy. It is a soft subtle looking card but not quite that bad. I was thinking that now that the weather is getting nicer I may just take photos of my cards and projects outside with natural light. Maybe then you can see the "real" colors of the items!!!

The little "Thank You" came from the "Holiday Blitz" set. Again, that is another MUST HAVE set. I will be keeping that one for a LONG time!!! I love how versatile it is. It's full of "holidays" and they are just the most perfect size to use too!

The background on the card is done with the Cuttlebug "Dotted Swiss" folder. I sponged the edges in Bordering Blue and layered it all. The "Thank you" on the scallop is set on with Dimensionals. Other than that it's a pretty simple and basic card. You don't need a lot of materials to make this card!!!

I have a fun project for you tomorrow so stop back and see. I am just finishing it up tonight and I should have it ready to show you tomorrow.

Thank you SO much for visiting and have a FABULOUS weekend,
Wanda
