My card today is the thank you that went out to my customers in August. There’s no video this time but I’m hoping to get back to making more videos very soon.

The card base is a small square of Early Espresso, matted with Venetian Romance  DSP (130144). (Tip – although you can’t make out what the script says very easily and it’s only intended to be a background, it still helps to get it the right way up – it just looks wrong upside down – I just caught myself before I made that mistake ). The frame from Chalk Talk* (W130631 or 130634) was stamped in Early Espresso ink onto Pistachio Pudding card and die cut out with the matching Chalk Talk framelit* (129983). After punching out the centre of the frame with the 1-1/4″ Circle (119861) it was popped up on the card front with dimensionals. The sentiment from the same Chalk Talk set was selectively inked with the Strawberry Slush marker, stamped onto Whisper White card, punched out with the 1″ Circle (119868) and popped up again in the centre of the frame. Small flowers were punched from Early Espresso card using the Itty Bitty Shapes (118309 – pack of three), adhered direct to the card front in the corners and topped with Basic Pearls (119247).

* Buy the stamp set and framelits as a bundle and save 15% – W132731 £37.25 or C132730 £32.95.

On the Whisper White insert, the same frame was stamped off each corner with Early Espresso ink for a decorative touch.
