Thanks so much

Hi friends! Happy Friday! The weekends sure seem to be coming around quickly these days! I’m up on the Prickley Pear Stamps blog today with an inspiration project featuring the new Thanks stamp set and coordinating Thanks die set! I created a mini slimline employing the raised inlaid die cut technique which I think always turns out so cool! These are amazing stamps and dies, and the large sentiment works perfectly for this technique and for a mini slimline card!

I cut a 3-1/2″ x 6″ mini slimline card base from CutCardStock Basis 110# Natural cardstock. I then cut a layering panel from a fabric print in the Keep It Simple Farmhouse Fall Collection Pack, die cut the large sentiment from the Thanks die set into the center of the panel, and adhered it to the card front on double-sided foam strips.

I stamped the Thanks sentiment in Memento Cottage Ivy ink on a piece of Basis Natural cardstock and colored it with alcohol markers. I die cut it with the coordinating Thanks die and adhered it into the negative space of the panel on the card front. I stamped the remainder of the sentiment on a Basis Natural scrap, trimmed it and adhered it beneath the sentiment. The finishing touch was stamping the dragonfly on a Basis Natural scrap in Memento Tuxedo Black ink which I colored, die cut and adhered to the upper left of the sentiment.
