Simple Thank You Card – Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop where we have a sketch for inspiration. I have to say, I found this sketch a bit of a challenge and a number of attempts went in the bin before I made a card I was happy with. I used the Cake Fancy stamp set to make a simple thank you card.

Colours used in this card are:

Using the Grid Paper, I lined up the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White card so that it was straight.
