Thanks card



It's always a bit more difficult to design a card that is for many individuals, both male and female. Fortunately the thanks card was for people who assisted in a Christmas project so I could use holiday colours. The word is done on my KNK digital die cutter using an erasable pen, so that I could emboss the image with gold detail embossing powder. I used a stardust pen to fill in the letters. The thanks phrase and the white card base are edged with gold brilliance ink. The label layers are gold and silver, as the background paper has gold and silver glitter in it. Then came the fun of trying to photograph it. Metal papers are notorious for causing reflections that are distracting, but hopefully the picture gives you a good idea of the effect.


Supplies used: White cardstock, gold and silver metallic papers, KNK, font PassionsConflictRob, gold embossing powder, stardust pen, ribbon, brad, Prima poinsettia, japanese paper
