Thanks

Operation Write Home's  January Mid Month Throw Down is to make a thank you card.  I dug out some older, much loved items to make this one.
I used some Lasting Impressions paper that I bought probably about 7 years ago at my LSS as my backdrop.  The pink is Pink Passion from SU! The flower stamp is by Hero Arts and it is one of the first stamps I purchased when I started making cards.  I colored the stamp with SU! markers prior to stamping.  Finally the sentiment is by SU from 2001- Whew, talk about holding on to things for a while.  The flowers were made with a punch from Recollections, and the gems are from Pizzazz APlenty. The twine has been in my stash forever also.  The only new thing on this card is the Scallop Tag Topper by SU! which I just got a couple of weeks ago.  I embossed the pink panel with the SU! Square Lattice folder, which is a favorite of mine.  I guess that about tells the whole story of this card.  Wishing you all a fantastic day and thanks for popping in to see me.

  11. This is such a pretty card Donna! I love the color combo and who says old things can't be new again?! I love that you even still had all this awesome goodies and then used it. I too love that embossing folder, its such a good one to use on everything! lol I also love the tag punch, but don't own it....yet! I'm hoping when I have my party in Feb that I will earn enough to get one. Hugs, Brenda
