As a special thank you for participating, I sent my friends and customers who donated or attended this thank you card. It could be considered to be a ‘clean and simple’ card. I started by using the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder on a piece of Elegant Eggplant. I then took some Very Vanilla cardstock and rolled it with Very Vintage Jumbo Roller in Elegant Eggplant ink. A small piece of the polka dots was place across the middle of the card, then Thanks So Much from Sincere Salutations, and Share a Cup were stamped in Elegant Eggplant. I thought the cup was very appropriate for the event.
Have a warm week (it is starting to cool down here).
