Thank You Sweet Friend!



This is my One Plus Twelve card for October. This was the brainchild of Kelly and she asked Jeanette and me to join her in this challenge in 2019. We are to use just one stamp, to make a card every month and post on the 3rd of each month.  It was so much fun that the three of decided to continue for our third year and pick a new image to use.

For 2021, I picked a Gina K Designs set called Thankful Greenery.  I think this set is so pretty and I can see in my mind many ways that I can use this image.  Plus--I will have 12 thank you cards at the end of the year!

For this month's card, I stamped the image with Versamark on The Paper Cut's Cougar Opaque White and then heat embossed with Rose Gold embossing powder.  I then ink blender with my Taylored Expressions ink cubes in Pink, Red, Orange and Yellow-and used my Taylored Expressions Blender Brushes! I then die cut a frame with my Gina Marie Designs Peekaboo Oval and then die cut that frame with my Gina K Designs Master Layouts 2--two sets of stitching!  I then added the sentiment from the same set that I also embossed with rose gold on black cardstock.  I die cut the sentiment with a banner from the same Gina K Designs Master Layout 2.  I love the colors and layers in this card!




Please be sure to check out the other One plus Twelve cards.  Here is a link to Jeanette's and Kelly's blog. I am sure you will enjoy checking out what stamp set each of them picked for 2021 and will see a couple of great cards! I hope Kelly and Jeanette like my card and that you might too! Be sure to check back every month on the 3rd to see our cards!

Positively gorgeous! I love the hombre rainbow that you’ve blended and the pop of color against the stark white is just beautifully done! Another success! Xoxo
