Happy May everyone. Carol from thr DT here sharing a quick and easy Thank You using an Exact A-2 invitation set from CutCardstock.com. Some of my friends ( and my husband) tease me because I like my cards and envelopes to match. They don’t always, but whenever I can make that happen I do! That’s why I like invitation sets.
Using the invitation set as my inspiration, I found a coordinating scrap of paper in my scrap stash, trimmed it slightly smaller than the A-2 card and taped it on. This was for a guy, and I’m always challenged when it comes to guy cards, so I grabbed this graphic stamp that looked kind of guy-ish ( that’s a word right?) and stamped it on cream cardstock using coordinating blue ink.
After stamping it, I trimmed it, added some washi tape , mounted it onto a green scrap and then trimmed that to size.
I ran a strip of washi tape down another scrap of the cream cardstock and cut into a chevron shape, then adhered that to the side of the card.
To tie everything together I added strips of both washi tapes to the envelope.
This really was a fast card to make. Definitely less than 10 minutes but it’s totally OK for the recipient to think it took me much longer!
