lots of thanks

Today I am sharing a bunch of thank you cards that I made for the companies who donated to our all-day stamping event, the 7th annual NEPA Stamp & Swap. These companies were all SO very generous and helped to make our event a fun, successful one! Since we had quite a few donations this past year, I kept the cards pretty simple. I’ve added the cards in ABC order…lol, I can’t choose a favorite!

The first card was for Art Impressions, using one of their sweet freebie stamps. Bonnie designs the cutest images for those! I placed him on a gate-fold card with some MFT paper.

My second card is using the Altenew Extra Special Stamp & Die Bundle. Altenew has the BEST florals!

Next, I used the Avery Elle Cherry on Top stamp set. (I also purchased the dies to match!) Instead of coloring the cherries, I paper pieced them! The background embossing folder is by SU!

This sweet, little mouse is from Colorado Craft Company. I placed her onto a gate-fold card and made a few duplicates which were sent to Scor-Pal and Marci Snee (Stamp Junkies).

Here I used a Clearly Besotted set with Christmas crackers. I also paper pieced the candy on this card and covered it with Stickles.

Next is a flamingo stencil by Erin Lee Creative. I need to check out her store some more, this is a fairly new to me company. Looks like some fun things over there!

I purposely offset the stamping on these silhouettes in Gina K Designs Friendly Silhouettes. Such beautiful stamps…I am anxious to use them again!

A small window was cut from the front of this card so that the little sloth from Lawn Fawn Slow Down and Enjoy. could peek through. His backside is on the inside of the card…so cute! (I forgot to take an inside pic).

Nic from Magnuson Custom Stamps is completely awesome to work with! He helped design a set just for our event to coordinate with the theme. Go check out his site and let him help you create the stamp of your choice! Tell him I sent you. 🙂 This sweet embossing folder (Park Lane- Bloom) used on the background is one that I picked up from JoAnn’s some time ago.

MFT Stamps Backyard BBQ and the picnic table dies from their Picnic in the Park Die-namics were used on my next card. The sentiments in this set match perfectly! The grass is retired MFT dies.

Here I used Pink and Main Glossy Dots and a free Pink and Main flower image from this Digi Stamp Bundle. The window was cut with MFT Square Peek-a-Boo Window Die-namics.

Last one! I colored the sweet Chillin’ image by Unity Stamp Company to resemble a cranberry drink with orange slices. It will make an awesome glass of lemonade, too!

Stay warm and happy crafting!
