Simple Stamping - Thank You Card


 Here is an easy card using simple stamping, one stamp set and ink.

I have used a Whisper White Note Card and Envelope, Balmy Blue Classic Stampin' Pad, Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad and the Daisy Delight Stamp Set.

First I cut a 2.5cm (1") strip from the right front edge of the card and stamped the "Thank You" sentiment on it and trimmed the length to size. I used a finger dauber to apply Balmy Blue ink to the outer edges and set aside.
This stamp set is a two step set so I began by stamping the three larger flowers in Balmy Blue on the front of the card. Then I over stamped the petals and stems in Tuxedo Black. The tiny flowers were also stamped in Balmy Blue. I repeat the stamping on the envelope just for some added interest. 


Next I sponged some Balmy Blue ink over the right half of the inside of the card. I then spritzed over some water using a Stampin' Spritzer. Once dry I stamped some tiny flowers in Balmy Blue to add texture. I stamped the inside sentiment using Tuxedo Black.
Finally I attached the sentiment strip to the front of the card using Dimensionals.

Super quick and easy!
