Thanks Card - Gel-a-tins

Hey hey hey! :) Remember I shared last weekend that my stamps have arrived? Well I couldn't wait much longer and got started right away! *lol* Here's what I came up with using the gel-a-tins Many Thanks Sentiment Stamps






See the lil round stamp at the corner right of the stamp set? I used that to make the make the background for the card, and slapped a bit of crackle paint all over for a washed out look

Next, I layered in atop a larger piece of cardstock and stitched the edges (gosh! at times like this i sure wish I had a sewing machine *lol* but I think my stitching turned out pretty ok didn't it? *hehe*)

Here's what the outcome is like:




After that, I embellished the card with G45 patterned papers and prima flowers and the Hambly Bird Cage screen print

Lastly, I added the 'Thanks' sentiment from the very same stamp set.

Materials Used : Ivory Cardstock, Gel-a-tins Many Thanks Sentiment Stamp Set, Ranger Distress Inks, Crackle Paint, WRMK Sew Easy, Prima Flowers, Hambly Screen Print, Lace.
