I have a million reasons to be thankful a bunch of them!! Today is is the most glorious spring day thus far this year. I am looking out my studio window and the daffodils are blooming their hearts out! I am done school till June and I have a free day to stamp. What could be better.
I needed a thank you card. For some reason I have a million birthday cards stock piled, not so many thank yous. Since I had to make a card, I decided to check into some challenges to give me inspiration.
Much to my surprise ShowCASe Your Style was looking for thank you cards! Perfect!
Happy Little Stampers, a new to me challenge site was looking for the use of stencils in your project. I used a very old and the first stencil I ever purchased, way back when.... even before they were trending.
Curtain Call had a photo inspiration using a bouquet of flowers.
And AAA cards had the word "springtime" as your inspiration.
I got very busy and created this fun tag thank you card. I die cut the tag and sponged inspiration colors through the stencil. To create a more dramatic effect I outlined the stenciled image with a sharpie. This is one of my favorite tricks to use with stencils.
Check out all of these great challenges and I am sure your creative juices will begin to flow!

Hi Sue, this is a wonderful card. Love the tags! You have actually linked this up at the HLS Sketch challenge and not the Stencilling challenge but I will fix that up for you right now. Thanks so much for playing at Happy Little Stampers xx
