Thank You Gift Set



Here is the set of Thank You cards that I was talking about in my last post.  I had so much fun making these cards. I wanted to try to utilize the same stamp set as much as possible, and use clean and simple designs. I think I accomplished this very well with this branches4flowers (Stamps of Life by Stephanie Bernard) stamp set. It is such a versatile stamp set! I also used the Make a Statement (Verve) stamp set on the card with the little birdie.  I once again used my new Color Box by Stephanie Bernard ink pads. I just love the colors! They stamp great!



This type of style is different for me. It is hard for me to figure out how to balance the negative space. 
I love visiting the blogs which feature CAS cards. So I am inspired to try to learn! But my first love will always be cards with lots of layers and bows and ribbons! I'm too much a girly girl to give all that up!

 I hope you are doing well! I and My son are almost well!!!!! Yea!!!!
We take him home next week and I am going to miss him!
Happy stamping!

What a GREAT idea, Mackie, to make a gift set using the same stamp set in different colors and designs! LOVE them all!

These are great CAS cards! They are nice and flat too, easy for mailing. Nice work!
