April Thank You Cards

I can't believe it is already almost April! Where has this year gone? It just seems like yesterday that we were ringing in the new year 2010!!! Anyway, today I am sharing the cards that my girls will be making at my April Stamp-a-Stack. I had a request for a "Thank You" theme and so I thought, "Why not?" So here they are!

I decided to try to feature the Incolors Rich Razzleberry, Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry, Dusty Durango, Bermuda Bay,Soft Suede, and Stampin’ Up Designer Paper. These colors are so vibrant and fun!

Let me know if you have any questions about any of these cards!

Thanks for stopping by!

Until Next time, Happy Stampin!

Progressive Card

Ok, so I get up this morning and start looking at some of my favorite Stampin' Up blogs. One of my favorites it Heather Summers (http://stampwithheather.typepad.com/). I came across her idea of making a progressive card and thought, "Hey, I can do this!" I have never entered into any type of challenge before, so I thought I'd give it a try. Her challenge is to take a 3x3 note card, design it, and turn it into a regular standard size card. Here is my 3x3 card:

I wanted to use some paper from the Sale-a-bration paper pack so I thought I'd use these cute little trees. I like the single Pumpkin Pie tree so I wanted to add a little more Pumpkin Pie to my card with the oval punch. I thought this would be a cute and simple "Thank You" card. Here is the 3x3 card progressed into a standard size card.

Here is the recipe for this card:
