It's waltz day over at Waltzingmouse Stamps, and this month's theme is "Gratitude/Thanksgiving". I decided to go with the just the one word "thanks" from one of my favourite sets - I love the big flourishy sentiments from Say it Loud, they stand alone and make fantastic cards.
I started with a kraft card base, made some paper ribbons and curled them slightly at the bottom using some DP from K&Co and embossed a strip of brown paper with dots. I stamped the thanks onto some pearlised card which had been cut with a nestie with black ink and finished with some funky red pompom ribbon.
Enjoy the waltz - can't wait until my stamps from the new release arrive and I can play with those too ;-)
Beautiful card, love those pretty banners and the beautiful label, so ornate and pretty. Happy Waltzing!

Pom poms! I have not a pom in my card-making stash, hee hee. I must go buy some, they are so cheery on your card! Love those paper ribbons you made along the bottom. The label is a perfect place to feature that sentiment. So glad that you could waltz along this month!
ReplyDeleteI love those pom-poms and the label you used on this one. It goes so well with the scale of the sentiment you chose. The ribbons at the bottom is something I am going to remember to try. Great job on this one.
