Thank you cards and a surprise...

Happy Thursday, you all!!
I am having a very hard time hearing myself think this week --- we are having a new roof put on the house and, boy, is it noisy! Especially upstairs where my craft cave is located. They started on Monday and should be done today, but no later than tomorrow.

The last couple of days, I toughed it out and went up to make some thank you cards. I owe several to people and so I made too many:-)

I only used svg files -- no stamps. The paper is card stock I have on hand. Mostly textured. The "Thanks a Bunch" title was a freebie from Svg Cuts, the flowers are the Garden Splendor files from Scraptastical Kreations, the scalloped oval is the Lace Circle file from Little Scraps of Heaven that I made into an oval using SCAL. I had to remove the 'keep proportions' checkmark and size the center to fit the saying. Then I made the back scalloped oval by using the 'ungroup' command to make it solid and sizing it to fit. There is another flower accent on the inside and I left it blank so I can write the appropriate note. There is some chalking and shiny studs for the flower centers. The ribbon, I think, was in Michael's $1 bin. It did not really take that long, considering that I made 15 of them --- don't ask:-)

Now, for the surprise!! If you actually have read this far, you have the chance to win a set of 6 of these Thank You cards w/envelopes. All you have to do is leave a comment and tell me you would like to have them! I will pick a winner in a couple of days. Oh, it would be great if you could leave a way for me to reach you:-)

Now, I need to go see if there are any challenges this would work for! I think I saw one for Thank You Notes...
Have a great -- hopefully quiet -- day!
Kitty Hugs, Judy
