Filed under: Printable and Paper Crafts — dgSpicyGal @ 5:08 pm

This project uses the Marigold - Printable Card Kit No.1 to create a vintage inspired thank-you card. This card was big hit at the Creative Diva - Girl’s Night Out in Tucson Arizona, held at the Melting Pot Restaurant.

From the Marigold - Printable Card Kit, print the “Printable Card 01″ pdf page and cut out:

  • One card
  • One “Thank You” journal area
  • One peach floral stamp

You also need one invitation sized envelope, or print and make the envelope provided in the kit.

Other tool and supplies needed:

  • Scissors
  • Extra long hole punch
  • Decorative edge scissors, preferably in a wavy or stamp edge
  • One metal brad. (We used the “Antique Copper Mini Circle” brads from Making Memories)
  • One raised foam square or circle like “Sticky Squares” from Making Memories

Step One:

Punch a hold in the middle of the Thank-You journal area, about 1/4″ from the top.

Also punch a hole in the card about 1/2″ from the top of the peach stamped frame.

Step Three:

Use your decorative scissors and cut around all four sides of the stamp to give it a stamp-like edge. While you have your scissors, you can also cut the edge the of envelope flap to match the stamp and give it a deckled edge.
