I have one more quick and easy thank you card to share from all the end of year craziness. Aidan has been going to his Tae Kwon Do studio for before and after school care for the past 7 years, and this is his last year so it's only fitting that he needed to give special thank you's to all the instructors and staff. Of course we baked yummy cookies but we needed cards to go with them so I whipped up these 3"x3" cards.
I used Basic Gray cardstock for the cardbase and then used Bermuda Bay cardstock to mat the Basic Black cardfront which was embossed with the Corrugated Dynamic Embossing Folder (I love the deep embossing you get with your folder but here's a tip, cut your cardstock a little big and then emboss it. The cardstock shrinks on one side more than the other so by having the cardstock a little bigger you can trim it down to exactly the size you need when you're finished).
Next I added a piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock that was cut with the Layering Circles Framelits and then then added a circle punched out of the Black Foil Paper (when I punched it some of the silver under the black showed through but I kind of like the distressed look for this card.
The greeting is from the A Big Thank You stamp set and was stamped in Bermuda Bay and Basic Gray ink before being punched out and attached with dimensionals.
I like the simplicity of this card and it gives just enough room for Aidan to write his thank you message without leaving lots of blank space (let's be honest teen boys are not exactly known for lots of words, especially when they have multiple cards to write).
