POLKA DOT FLOWER THANK YOU

Thank you can be said in many ways.  This Polka Dot Flower Thank You card says it "With All My Heart", which just happens to be the name of the stamp set used to create it!  This was one of five projects I was given to stamp at Leadership in Phoenix last month.  I modified it just slightly by adding the half punched 1-1/4" circle on the right and punching out a matching Old Olive™ circle to set inside the card.

NOTE: I punched out a whole Old Olive circle, adhered it to the inside of the card and trimmed of the excess overhang.)

I felt like there  was too much Melon Mambo™ card space on the side, so I added my own little adjustment (creative license).  Our 5/8" GROSGRAIN RIBBON tied around a slim 1/4" piece of Old Olive makes great leaves on the stem.  Extra texture was added by running the CONFETTI WHITE™ cardstock through the Big Shot™ in a TEXTURES IMPRESSION FOLDER and crumpling up the punched PRETTY IN PINK™ Extra Large FANCY FLOWER™.

The little blue button is held in place with a MINI GLUE DOT™.  They are small dot adhesives that come on a roll of waxed paper.  You touch your object, the button, to the adhesive directly, and then stick your object on the intended surface, the cardstock.  They are VERY sticky and you don't want to touch them with your fingers.

All the products are listed below and available for purchase 24/7.  Click on the button under my name.

Love the ribbon leaves!

[Linda Callahan]

So when I cut my ribbon like that it is because I have messed up trying to make the little flag ends - when you cut it like that it is adorable and you make leaves!

[Carla Bazhenow]

So love those ribbon leaves. I'm with Linda! *smile* Your card is fabulous. Hugs,

[Mary Fish]
