Winter Thank You Cards

Posted on January 2, 2013 in Cards, Go To Gal

Don’t pack up those winter stamps just yet. Why not put them to use for some thank you cards?

I did these for the Paper Crafts Connections blog today. Simple and fun. Just stamped with black ink and colored heavily with colored pencils. Love the bold color on kraft paper. And I absolutely love these stamps from Tim Holtz. They rock.

By the way, the colored strips above and below the stamped piece – I covered them with Glossy Accents for shine. Just a fun and different touch.

Head HERE to Paper Crafts for more info… and a giveaway of these stamps!!!

See you soon. Oh, and Happy New Year to you!

    I said it over there but will mention it again – love that you used pencils on the kraft. I haven’t done that in ages and it looks fabulous on these cards. (Hoping my kids will like the idea too so they can get those thank you’s in the mail!)

    Jennifer! I love the cards and checked out your post on the Paper Crafts blog. Quick question if you have a moment….after you color the snowman white, are you just super careful around the black sketched area of the snow balls? Or did you go over it with prismacolor pencils? Thank you!

    I wanted to thank you for the Inktense Watercolor Pencil favorites idea…I gifted myself a set and they are AWESOME!
    Prismacolors were my first love….but hey! I should try using both on a project!
    Thanks!

    I agree with you about using winter themed stamps on thank yous. It goes down so much better than a Christmas theme at this point and it sure is fun to play with those winter stamps and show them off to everyone who was so thoughtful over the holidays! The coloring really does look fabulous on the kraft cardstock – I just love the look! Thanks so much for sharing!
