World Card Making Day Bloghop Thank You Cards


Welcome to Operation Write Home's World Card Making Day Bloghop. It was so much fun looking through all of the OWH sketches and trying to pick my favorite one to use.  I finally decided to use two different ones.  This is the first thank you card I made using OWH's Sketch #135


Here is the second thank you card I made using OWH Sketch #142.

Both cards are quick and easy to make thanks to the Big Shot and punches.  I agree with someone who posted that OWH Sketch #142 is a wonderful way to use scraps. Which card do you like the best?

Check out the details and supplies for these cards.

World Card Making Day Thank You Card Details


Stampin' Up!'s Expressions Thinlits are perfect for making this Thank You card using Operation Write Home's Sketch #135.  I used the Thankful expression and cut off the end of the word.  The "you" in the heart is from the Lots of Thanks Stamp set.  The colors in Stampin' Up!'s I Am Me Designer Series Paper  are Basic Gray, Calypso Coral, Pool Party, Real Red, So Saffron and Whisper White.


Here is a close up view of the center of the card.  A quick tip when using the thinlits is to put a piece of wax paper between the thinlit and the card stock.  Run it through the Big Shot using the instructions that come with the thinlits.  The expression will easily separate from the metal die thanks to the wax paper.  To adhere the sentiment to the card, I used Stampin' Up!'s 2-way glue.  That made it quick and easy without any mess.


Here is the second card I made using Stampin' Up!'s Quatrefancy Specialty Designer Series Paper and Operation Write Home's Sketch #142The Quatrefancy Specialty Designer Series Paper coordinates with the following Stampin' Up! colors:  Daffodil Delight, Island Indigo, Pool Party, Pumpkin Pie, Strawberry Slush and Whisper White.


Here is a close up of the sentiment.  It uses the Petite Pairs stamp set which is one of my go to stamp sets.  It also uses one of my favorite combinations of the large oval and oval scallop punches along with the Apothecary Accents Framelits.
