Thank You Cards

I finally started working on my thank you cards from the funeral services from last weekend...Im super late, however I didn't want to do the traditional store bought cards. My mom always loved handmade things and I think, if she were here, she'd want a handmade thank you card sent out....plus, I just have so much fun creating them!

I have to make approximately 20 cards....so I decided to go with a simple design...one that I can easily recreate several times!!

Recipe:
1 - 5x7" White Folding Card
1 - 4.75x6.75" Black Cardstock
1 - 4.5x6.5" Recollections Patterned Page
1 - 2" wide Recollections "sparkly" white cardstock (comes in the "precious metals" 8.5 x 11" pack)
1 - 6" black ribbon
6 - paper flowers
3 - brads
I embossed the white strip with Cuttlebug Divine Swirls folder.

The tag was printed on by my printer and then cut to size and layered. :)

Thanks for looking! Have a great day!!

    Leslie,
    I can't even imagine what you are going through. Sending a big hug! I do think these cards will be just perfect. I stopped by to thank you for hopping along today and helping Carri celebrate her birthday.

    And I wanted to say that even though I am on the DT for Crafter's Companion, I'm not just saying it to sell the product when I mention that I LOVE my Ultimate tool! It is super cool and I literally pull it out every time I craft. It comes with a DVD to help you figure out all the cool things it does and I definitely recommend the Advanced DVD that I mentioned on my blog because it just takes it to the next level.
    Happy Thursday!! Stacy H-W
