September 6, 2023 - Thanks CLR286 Stamps and PPRS-D286 Dies

 

It's back to school time and whether your student has been in school for a few weeks now or just getting started doesn't matter. What matters is are you supply ready with Thank You cards?

Hi all! Tia here with you from RockyMtnCraftia.com. I always looked forward to crafting a variety of Thank You cards and gifts when the school year got started. Ready to thank my son's classroom teacher, and para-professional. Thank his specials teacher (music/art/computers/gym) at back to school night. Better yet, was when he asked me for a Thank You card for the crossing-guard!

There are so many people in our lives that we can not only be Thankful For, but can also take time to just Thank! And this is the stamp set to do it!

My cards today are super fast and easy! Perfect for making several to have in your stash! I began with an A6 sized card (4.5x6.25) I used design paper with a school theme. Keeping with that theme I selected the dash-lined Thanks stamp. It reminded me of the tracing letters you do when learning to write.

I embossed white letters on black cardstock and used the word die to cut out. Then used the reverse colors on 'for all you do' and fussy cut it out. 

I popped both sentiments on foam tape, layering them slightly. 

Using an old Cricket cartridge called 'Back To School', I cut out several apples from toner paper and then foiled them. Count this cute card-done!

Here, I matted the card with black cardstock and adhered the design paper to it.

I used a 2 inch strip of black cardstock across the center. As before I embossed 'Thanks' in black on white cardstock and reversed the colors on 'for all you do' and adhered them the same way as before. 

I had an extra foiled apple and added it with foam tape too.

I told you these cards were fast, easy and super cute! 

Pick up the Thanks stamp set and coordinating die set today and get started on filling up your Thank You card stash!

Until next time, have fun and Go-Get-Crafty!

Hello Pals!  Kim back with you today to share another fun card that I created with the Thanks Stamp & Die Bundle.  I had a ton of fun creating this bold card. 

I stamped the different focal images repeatedly on a diagonal across a white card panel, ensuring that I ran the stamp off of the edges to make it look fluid.  I then colored the images using a very strange (for me) color palette of yellow, yellow green, teal, and blue violet. 

I stamped the stitched Thanks on a scrap piece of white and colored it, alternating the colors.  I then used the coordinating die to cut it out.  From a violet panel of card stock, I die-cut the "thanks" twice, and adhered them to the back of the colored thanks, to create a shadow around it. 

I adhered the colored panel to a piece of yellow cardstock and added it to the card base.  I added a loopy white bow behind the focal image and popped it up on foam squares before attaching it to the card front. 

I love how cheerful this card is!  Make sure to head over to the shop and pick up this amazing bundle!  

Thanks so much for spending a few minutes with me! 

Xoxo, Kim

 Hi Pals!  Kim here, today, to share a sweet card that I made using the new Thanks Stamp & Die Bundle.  I just love this stamp set, as there are so many fun ways that it can be used. 

I wanted to create a clean and simple card, so I stamped the focal image on a white card panel, followed by the "so much" sentiment and the little dragonfly.  I colored them in with Copic Markers and set the panel aside to dry. 

I adhered a lilac panel of cardstock, along with a coordinating lilac gingham paper to the card base and added the colored panel. I finished off the card by adding a handful of lilac rhinestones. 

I really love the simplicity of this sweet card, and I hope you do too!   Make sure to head to the shop to grab your bundle!  I promise you won't be disappointed.  I will be back in a few days to share another card that I made using this same set in a totally different way! 

Thanks so much for spending a few minutes of your busy day with me today! 

Xoxo, Kim
