Thank you card featuring a sanded collaged white core cardstock background, ribbon and a large layered font greeting


We spent almost a week camping up north with my sister and her husband.  They are long time campers and we are just newbies.  It was great to get a chance to visit around the camp fire after supper.  We all made our own food and ate together with social distancing.  I was there to pick blueberries so we spent two afternoons picking and I managed to get the two pails I needed for the winter.  I cleaned my berries and put them in the freezer in the trailer - so nice!!  I came home with a box of crabapples too!! It was our first time of camping together and I wanted her to know how great it was to be there with them.  I started with an envelope from my stash and made a green card to fit inside.  I created a pieced background from white core scraps which I embossed and sanded. Love how it turned out!!  I added a green ribbon across and tied on a little piece of pink gros grain.  I found the round greeting (1.75" punchie SU) and was lucky enough to find a scalloped circle (Nestibilities) in my stash that worked perfectly.  I used a push pin to pierce each scallop and sponged the greeting with green ink before layering them.  I mounted the greeting with 3D foam tape and added one little rhinestone to finish off my card.
