Leftovers

I promised my Fall Flowers attendees, and the girls who bought the at home kit, that I'd work on some easy samples of some cards they can make with the leftovers from their class. Everyone went home with at least a half a pack of Fall Flowers paper. So, I'll continue to rotate some possible ideas in.

First, I have this cute 3x3 thank you note. The post office won't mail this size, but they are super cute if you need a little gift card to tie to something, or to hand deliver, place in someone's mailbox etc. You get the point.

I also recreated a card I'd made before with Flower and Flourishes. My card was a modified case of a card we'd done in a demonstrator workshop and I simply loved it. Last time I switched it from the Palette O Prints to the Linen Prints paper... this time, I changed the paper to Fall Flowers and used my edge distresser like CRAZY to rough up the matting for the image and sentiment.
The card base for the 3x3 is Sahara Sand, the card base for the larger card is Old Olive. Stamp sets include "Thoroughly Thankful" and "Flowers and Flourish" The first card was colored with SU Many Marvelous Markers, and finished off with River Rock double stitched ribbon. The second card was stamped using Old Olive and Always Artichoke ink. An Ice Rhinestone Brad was used in the center and tied with the Very Vanilla wide grosgrain ribbon.
Have a great day everyone!
