I had a bit of spare time this evening so I decided to make a card for this week's color challange at Create with Connie & Mary. I really like these colors together and decided to go clean and graphic for this card.
For this card, I used the Timeless Type Sizzlets to die cut the word "Thanks". This took a slightly larger than usual card base to fit on. I cut an inch off the bottom of the card front and positioned the letters across the top. I then lined up the top of the letters and adhered to the shortened card base. A few rolled flowers in Daffodil Delight and a couple of leaves and the card is finished.
Thanks for looking.
Before I sign off, my 10-year old son William made a card and has asked me (several times!) to post it on my blog. The flower is something I had made and put in my "To Use Someday" box. William made the rest and has plans to give it to his girlfriend. So without further ado:
Products used (all Stampin' Up!):
Cardstock: Whisper White; Island Indigo; Lucky Limeade; Daffodil Delight
Accessories: Timeless Type Sizzlets; Little Leaves Sizzlet; 1 3/8" circle punch
Cheers
Karren
Edited to add: This card was chosen as a Top 3 pick at Create with Connie & Mary.

Great cards! I really like how you did the wording on the "thanks" card...very creative! Love your little rolled flowers as well. Thanks for playing the Create with Connie & Mary challenge this week!
I just made a card like this for Christmas and I love how it all comes together with letters like yours. And your son has talent! Thanks for playing at Create with Connie & Mary this week!
Very nice card. I have seen something like this before and have it on my list of "I'll try that one day" - I think the one I saw had a clear window sheet in the space. I can't see that on yours. And your son did a great job with his card too! Thanks for joining us for our color challenge at Create with Connie & Mary!
