Today I am sharing some cards I am making to thank the wonderful staff at St. Vincent’s Northside in Brisbane who have been looking after my Dad after a triple bypass.  Everyone we have come in contact with have been just lovely.  I thought the floral arrangements in the Jar of Flowers were perfect for thank you cards.  I began by stamping the floral images onto Whisper White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  The images were coloured using different combinations of Daffodil Delight, Cinnamon Cider, Just Jade, Magenta Madness and Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends before being cut out.  I embossed Whisper White card using the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder and attached a piece of the Flowers for Every Season 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper across the bottom of the embossed card, I wrapped the top of the Designer Series Paper using the Silver Edge Metallic Ribbon before attaching the panel to scored and folded Just Jade card.  I attached the image from the Jar of Flowers stamp set to an oval of Whisper White card cut using the Layering Ovals Dies.  I attached the image to a Just Jade scalloped oval cut using the same dies and then the card front using dimensionals.  I stamped “Thanks” from the Ornate Thanks stamp set onto Whisper White card using Just Jade ink.  I trimmed the image before attached it to the card front.  To decorate the inside of the card, I attached a narrow strip of the same Flowers for Every Season 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper across the bottom of Whisper White card.  I also stamped the greeting from the Ornate Thanks stamp set using Just Jade ink.

I used much the same supplies to complete three more cards using the images from the Jar of Flowers stamp set.  I did use a “thank you” from the Beautiful World stamp set on one card and the ribbon from the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack.

I just love how beautiful these cards turned out, don’t you.
