More Wedding Thank You Cards

Well, after my daughter's first shower, even though only 10 people were there, she had to mail 23 thank you cards.  Last weekend, she had two showers and will nearly wipe out the remainder of the 60 thank you cards I already sent her.  So today, I sent her 44 more thank you cards, knowing full well that after the wedding in May, I will probably have to make even more for her!

I made two different designs this time.  The first mimics one I already sent, in that I used the Elegant Lines embossing folder again on the Ballet Blue (retired) cardstock base.  I just used different elements with it.  I only made 20 of these for her.  Love the new Four Frames sneak peek set from the 2011-2012 catalog!






Then I designed another for her, incorporating the Elegance wheel and Curly Cute for the thank you.  And lots of edge sponging!  I made 24 of these for her.  Thank heavens for my Xyron machines!




Now I need to get some Easter cards made this weekend so I can get them in the mail Monday.  Nothing like a little procrastination!  Have a great weekend and happy stamping!



Thanks for looking at my blog. I appreciate all the wonderful comments everyone leaves. Happy Stamping!

    Sheri, firstly congratulations on your daughter's up coming nuptials. What a wonderful time for you both. I love what you did with the sketch. The embossing folder and ribbon are perfect together. The black underlayer to the sentiment really helps to highlight it. Clean and sophisticated.
    So glad you joined the Paper Players this week and shared your fabulous card - especially for such a happy occasion.

    Sheri, I saw your entry on Paper Players and thought I'd take a look at your blog. Your work is very inspiring. Ballet Blue would have to be one of my all time favourite colours. I was sorry to see it go, along with all the purples! Your cards are so elegant and pretty. Cheers, Kasey ~ in Oz
