Wood Words – Thanks a Bunch

Simple changes creates a whole new card.  
I LOVE versatility — don’t you?  Today’s card is the same layout I used a couple days ago — I changed colors, stamp set (Wood Words), added an embossing folder and viola — a card that looks completely different.  This is what I do when my “mojo” isn’t feeling creative.  I pull a card that I like, make a couple of changes and have a new card that I love.

Crafting Forever

Every now and then we make a card that is sweet and simple, it’s a card that makes me want to sit down and stamp up a whole stack to share with everyone.  Today’s card is one of those.  We made a version of this card last week at our demo event.  I changed colors around and we made it again tonight at my Stamp & Go Card Club.

Doesn’t it look like the pen really did write “just a note” — I love this card.  I used the Simply Scored Tool to add the debossed lines for a little texture.

Card Tips:
Card Base — Thick Whisper White — 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ — score at 4 1/4″

Debossed lines are created on Simply Scored — 3/8″ & 5/8″
Night of Navy —  1 3/8″ x 5 1/2″
Daffodil Delight — 1 1/8″ x 5 1/2″
Delightful Daisy Designer Paper — 1″ x 5 1/2″
Stamp “Just a Note” from Flourishing Phrases with Black ink
Whisper White scrap — stamp pens with black ink — color with Night of Navy and Daffodil Delight Markers
Cut out with Paper Snips — attach to card with dimensionals — the new Mini Dimensionals would work great.

Crafting Forever Stamp Set
The stamp set has fabulous images and phrases.  You could use one of the other pens and Wood Textures designer paper for a great masculine card.

Here’s the original card we made with the demos — it’s so easy to get a completely different look.
