{ Thanks card with Maya Road }

Hello and happy Monday. I have a blog post on Maya Road blog today sharing this card.

Thanks by Daniela Dobson

For my card I used Flower Die Set and I die cut the flowers and leaves from patterned paper, cardstock and Foil Mates. Using my laminator and Deco Foil from Therm O Web  I added some shine to the background and the flower base.

For the sentiment I used Rose Garden Sentiment Stamp set that I stamped in black ink on a tag from my stash.

I tied two pieces of Twine Cording - Blackberry to the top of the panel and then again a bow under the flower.

{ Impression Obsession Design Team Thursday }

It is my turn today to share a card I made using Impression Obsession stamps and dies. Here is what I created.

I have been wanting to use this Leaf Set by Dina Kowal. It’s a layered leaf set with four different sentiments. Here is my card.

Change by Daniela Dobson

I stamped the bottom of the card with Herringbone Cover-a-card stamp and Chocolate Ink. I added a piece of patterned paper to the top.

To stamp the leaves I used several different colors: Melon, Chocolate, Tan, Chartreuse, Shamrock. In addition, I used Leaf Stems stamp set. I stamped three different images and cut them out. I used 3D foam squares to adhere the circle and Mini Tape runner from Therm O Web to add all the other elements.

Have a great Thursday.
