Thank You



Just a little thank you card today.

It's no secret that I love the quilted look, and the quickest way to make a quilted card happen, at least in my opinion, is a good old fashioned punch.

For this card I used a 3/4" punch and some MME papers.  When I first put this together it needed a little definition, so I inked the edges of the squares.  I ran all the squares through my Xyron sticker maker and adhered them to a scrap piece of cardstock.

I added a bit of burlap string and a button and adhered the quilted piece with foam adhesive over a mat of patterned paper that was adhered directly to the card base.



The sentiment is from Technique Tuesday and is embossed.

That's all for today, hope you are having a great week!

Supplies Used
Paper/Cardstock:  MME - Record It Here is Happy 6x6 pad; PTI - Kraft cardstock
Stamps:  Technique Tuesday - So Very Thankful
Ink:  Versamark; CTMH - Chocolate
Other:  CTMH - White Embossing Powder; May Arts - Burlap String; Punky Sprouts - Button; AC - Dimensional Adhesive; Tombow - Mono Adhesive
