Delightfully Detailed Thank Yous

There's always a need for more customer thank you cards. Often I rely on my Paper Pumpkin kits for that, but since the last kit was Halloween treat bags, I needed to come up with something on my own. Quite often I will use the Notecard and Envelope packages, but I didn't have any of the regular ones in stock. I did, however, have a package of the Delightfully Detailed Note Cards and Envelopes handy, and what is even better about that is that they already have a great watercolour wash on the front, either Blackberry Bliss or Mint Macaron. Here's how they turned out with the addition of some die cuts:

• The sentiment is die cut with the Thank You Thinlits, which is actually only one thinlit but it's just the right size to be the focal point of the card. I cut ten in Tranquil Tide and ten in Blackberry Bliss.
• I needed a label to mount the sentiment on to give some contrast with the background colour, so I got out the Foliage Frame Framelits and die cut 10 in Grapefruit Grove and 10 in Petal Pink.
• I added some punched foliage to the back of the frames with the Leaf punch shapes in Gray Granite and in Copper Glimmer Paper from the Joyous Noel 6 x 6 Glimmer Paper. I used the Sprig Punch to add Soft Sea Foam sprigs to the Petal Pink frames and Pineapple Punch sprigs to the the Grapefruit Grove frames.
• The finishing touch is a small bow made with the Braided Linen Trim and fluffed out a bit in the tops of the bow loops. The bows are added with Glue Dots.
