30 Day Gratitude Card Challenge: Day 11

Good morning friends and Happy Veteran's Day!  Unfortunately today is not an off day for us so Chris and I are heading into work, at least we had a great and relaxing weekend.  Today I'm excited to share a card I made for this months Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration blog card sketch challenge.  I decided to combine this challenge with my gratitude card challenge so this is another thank you card.  I used the Birthday Basics Designer Series paper as inspiration for this card.  It starts with a cardbase of Crisp Cantalope and then I added a piece of Raspberry Ribble cardstock.  The designer series paper is matted on Basic Gray cardstock and I used the new Envelope Punch Board to round the bottom corners.

The greeting is from the Chalk Talk stamp set and I inked just the greeting up before punching it out with the 1 3/8" Circle Punch.  It is matted on a piece of Bermuda Bay cardstock that was punched out with the Scallop Circle Punch and I used the Chalk Marker to add dots to each of the scallops.  The final touch was to add a piece of Bermuda Bay 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon and some more DSP that was punched out with the Chevron Border Punch.

This card is so cute, it's a great way to let people know how much you appreciate the gift you received for your birthday.  This is a really fun sketch that you'll enjoy so I hope you can play along and share your project on the blog.

 

Have a great day!
