Strawberry Thanks

I am so loving my Papertreyink sets. I waited to get a few sets at once in order to get free shipping -- not sure I'll be able to wait for another 3 sets to debut! Here's a thank you card I made for one of my son's teachers. Supplies used: Green Thumb stamp set from Papertrey ink: SU Classic Real Red and Garden Green inks; SU Real Red marker; SU oval punches; white brads; Japanese screw punch; May Arts sheer polka dot ribbon; SU Garden Green cardstock and Beckett's Expression #80 Iceberg cardstock. I lined the inside front cover with the Iceberg cardstock to hide the ribbon ends. I used the small strawberry stamp (bottom only) to make little "hinges" for the card. Here's a pic of the hinges: While I like the idea of the hinges, I'm not sure how much I like them on this particular card. But, it is done!

  11. Oh Joan, this is such a yummy looking design. The strawberry farm (almost in my back yard) should be opening soon and I can hardly wait. This pattern reminds me of a table cloth my Grandmother once had when we would go on picnics. Simply adorable!
