Easy Peasy Pebbles!


Morgan needed some thank you cards to send out for a few promotion gifts she recieved, and I wanted to make them quick, cute, and feminine. Quick because I JUST KNEW I was going to get the new SU! catalog in the mail today. I needed to be done with everything by mid afternoon so I could relax on the patio with a glass of iced tea AND the NEW CATTY!

Well, Carlos, my reliable mail carrier, did not come through for me today - DRATS!

Anyhoo, these quick and simple cards did turn out rather cute if you ask me! Paper is by Pebbles, inc. which I scalloped on the bottom with my trusty old Fiskars rotary cutter ( the big gray one from way back ), adhered to prescored cards from Michaels, stamped thanks (A Muse) on 4 of them, happy birthday (A Muse) on the other 2 in Pixie Pink (SU!), found those $1 Michaels epoxy stickers (in my newly organized space!) and added them above the knot on the grosgrain ribbon.

Fast, Easy, and Ready to go....now, if only my catalog was here!

Enjoy whatever makes you smile today!

Supplies: Stamps by A Muse, Paper: White premade cards (from Michaels) Pebbles patterned paper, Inks: Pixie Pink (SU!), Accessories: White grosgrain ribbon (SU!), Epoxy flower (Michaels $1 spot)

Great card, love that paper, I bought some of those Michael's $ flowers and they have been sitting, thanks for the idea.

Val, this is a super cute card! And by the way... Bill, my dependable mail carrier, didn't come through today either. Now I'm hoping for Monday! :)
