It’s Thursday and time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We have a color challenge today and I can hardly wait to see what others on the team have created.

Aren’;t these great colors? Bright, cheery, happy colors. I have someone specific in mind for this card. It was really quite quick and simple – and sometimes that’s best.

I began with a 4 1/4 x 11, scored at 5 1/2, Basic White card base and adhered a piece of the Full of Life 6×6 DSP to the front (4 1/4 x 5 1/2). I die cut the fronds using the Flowers of Beauty Dies and adhered with dabs of glue. I stamped the sentiment on a piece of Basic White using Pumpkin Pie ink and the Wonderful Thoughts stamp set. I die cut this with the Stitched Shapes Dies. I folded over a piece of the Bordered Ribbon in Peach Pie and added it with glue dots over the fronds. I put dimensionals on the die cut circle sentiment and placed it over the ribbon. Finally, I added three Opal Rounds Assortment in Night of Navy.

For the inside, I stamped the sentiment in Pumpkin Pie ink using another stamp in the Wonderful thoughts stamp set and another panel of Basic White 4 x 5 1/4. I added this to the inside of the card, then adhered a strip of the Full of Life DSP at the bottom, full width of 4 1/4.

For the envelope, I took a piece of the Full of Life 6×6 DSP cut 2 1/4 x 6, adhered it to the envelope flap – and that was it. I love the simplicity but also the effectiveness of this card – full of thanks and appreciation.
