Howdy!
I always find that a handmade card makes a world of difference in showing how sincere you are. So, when I find the time, I like to make large quantities of cards in one sitting so that I always have a homemade card handy.
Close to My Heart has some really great card kits that help make this possible for my busy schedule! This go around I used the Cut Above Thank You Card Kit, but I added my own little flair…take a look below and tell me what you think!
The greatest thing about the Cut Above kits is there is already a basic guideline created for you, but you have the option to make it your own!
With this specific kit I added a small piece of white card stock (2"x1 3/4") and distressed the edges with my Close to My Heart edge distresser and then inked the torn sides with my Lagoon or Pear ink pad.
The adhesive I used for this project was Close to My Heart Bonding Memories Glue, I recommend this adhesive due to its durability and its user friendly application. This is also a "two-way" glue, which allows me to either use it as a permanent adhesive <OR> I can put a thin layer of it on a sheet of card stock or a Cricut mat, let it air dry and now its sticky like a post-it note!!
Last but not least the stamp set that I used to create this unique card was Casual Expressions D1525, it is an all around great stamp set for any sentiments card.
I hope you enjoyed my spin on the Cut Above Thank You Card Kit!
