Thank You Card by Donna Idlet

Beautiful Floral Thank You

Today Donna is sharing a lovely thank you card featuring our Chrysanthemum Stamp Set.

The bundle of blooms from the Chrysanthemum Stamp Set becomes the focal point of this beautiful card. Donna layered the blooms over an oval that was cut out using our Oval Frames Die Set. She also added a bit of light blue ink the the center of the oval, giving the flower a nice soft background. 

For the orange polka dotted card base she used paper from our Autumn Basics Paper Pad. She used the same paper pad with our Frames & Flags Die Set to cut out a banner from yellow plaid. This cute banner is the perfect place to hold the thank you sentiment, tucked behind the oval and flowers.
