I think it's important that young children write thank you cards in appreciation but that is my personal choice as a parent.
So last night I set out to create these.
I used an embossing folder from Stampin' Up called Square lattice and embossed the ivory blank note cards. To match their invitations, I sent out originally, I used the same purple card stock and Martha Stewart border punch to keep it all relative.
Glued them down to the base card - whew two steps done. (Look out carpel tunnel!)
Next step 3 and 4 was to stamp the Thank You sentiment and punch it out with the fancy label punch both from Stampin Up. Lastly - adhere the sentiment on the border so the point hits between the scallop on the border as seen above. 5 steps and 16 cards done in a little over an hour. Simple but elegant and effective! I have 5 more to create - but I am going to individualize those differently for a few folks.
