Thinking of You 3x3 Notecards with Box

After making several sets of Halloween and Christmas cards I decided to make a pretty little "anytime" card!  It's floral and sweet.  Hope you like it!


The supplies:
Basic White CS
Spring Fling DSP by DCWV
1.5 inch Circle  Punch by The Paper Studio
1.75 inch Scallop Circle Punch by Fiskars
3-in-1 Heritage Corner Punch by Fiskars
All Year Greetings stamp set by Fiskars
Sea Breeze Chalk Ink by VersaMagic (Tsukineko)
Pink Ribbon




This card measures 3x3 with the floral DSP measuring 2.75 x 2.75 and the corners punched using the 3-in-1 Heritage corner punch.  I wrapped the DSP with the pink ribbon and made a simple know.  I then punched the gingham scallop circle using the 1.75 scallop circle punch and then used a paper piercer to accent the scallops.  Using the VersaMagic I stamped the "Thinking of You" phrase from the All Year Greetings stamp set and punched it using the 1.5 inch circle punch.  Layer it all together and you have a very simple, but beautiful card!




I also made the matching box and coordinating envelopes to go along with this.  And the completed set looks like this:


Thanks for stopping by!

Best Wishes for 2012!

It's a brand new year and I want to wish you a very happy, healthy, and blessed new year!  No new year's resolutions for me, but I am renewing my commitment to the Lord, Jesus Christ.  I want my children to know His love and to one day accept Him into their hearts as their Savior.  Gil and I registered them today for Calvary's Bible Island, which is their Sunday School program.  Ethan had an awesome time and couldn't stop saying, "I love church, I love church!"  Natalie cried a bit when we left her in her classroom, but by the time we returned she was happy as could be.  I left church today feeling very happy and very much at peace.  Jesus is our Lord and He makes everything okay.  If there are areas of your life you are struggling with, I can promise you that if you let the Lord into your heart, you will know that the kingdom awaits you and that our earthly trials are no match for His unending plan for us:  eternity with the Father.  Follow the link below to find more information for Calvary of Albuquerque.
