Flowery Thanks

 




Challenged by SOS for a quick thank you card under 30 minutes; mine timed at 26 minutes.

For a fast result I chose a couple of coordinating DPapers from Grace Taylor.  Inked the edges of the white base card with Abandoned Coral DI's to coordinate.  Diecut the simple sentiment, stacked it x4 and reinserted it into the space, added a coordinating ribbon and bow, and some gold card dots that were collected dropouts from a die.

This is a design that would be easy to do a do in a batch. All supplies from stash.  The thing that took the longest time was cutting and stacking the sentiment.  I really enjoyed the challenge of time pressure to come up with something interesting.  I've never done anything like that before.  And I think it's one of my fave recent makes.

Great job on finishing in less than 30 minutes! And the card is absolutely fabulous. Love how you cut the sentiment from the same paper to make it blend it. I need to try that technique sometime! And I really need to start setting myself a timer as I usually get carried away with overthinking whenever I make a card which can leave me frustrated because I spent so much time on just a single card, often not even finished!!
Thanks so much for sharing at my Garden Party this time!
