Lots of Thanks & a Birthday

After having visitors in the office last week, my boss asked me to make some Thank You cards to send to the visitors. Since I do not know them very well, I made cards I thought were nice. Hopefully they will too!

This card is based on Operation Write Home Sketch #156. As you can see, I took some liberties with it.

Products:
Crate Paper paper and die cut
QK
Accent Depot brads 
 

This card isn't based on a sketch. I am still working through the bits and pieces from the card kit I sent out in November!

Products used:
KI paper
misc paper
Prima flowers
KI and Doodlebug rhinestones

This fuzzy looking card is "homework" for Operation Write Home's Bootcamp - The ABC's of Color. I used the complimentary colors of orange and blue. Honestly, I had planned on using this paper for this card before the assignment came along. Why? Well, because I saw THIS card by Kristie and couldn't resist scraplifting it! I LOVE this design! I can see this being one of my "go to" card layouts! I masculine-ed it up by forgoing the doily.
 
Products used:
Crate Paper
QK
misc star punch
Queen & Co micro brads

I also had to make a few Thank Yous for my birthday.  I somehow misread the stamp and thought it said "thanks from the bottom of my heart." Oh well!!

Products used:
KI and Scrapworks papers
SU stamp
Spellbinders die

 

And last but not least, here is the card I made for a friends birthday last night. I had started the card awhile ago and believe it is based on a PageMaps card sketch. It was halfway done and I finished it last night so may or may not look anything like the original sketch!
