It's the first day of Stampin' Up!'s Sale-a-Bration and it's about time that I get busy stamping! Life sometimes throws a few curve balls that change priorities around a bit, but it's good to be back. I'm not a big New Year's Resolution maker, but I am going to try to show my gratitude a little more this year. In fact, I'm giving out my first two thank you notes today. This is a quick one that I made for our amazing swimming teacher. I intended to give a Christmas card to her, but life prevented that from happening. I figure it's better late than never (although I changed it just to a "thanks" instead of a holiday card). She is amazing and teaches all three of my children. I couldn't ask for a better teacher! We love hanging out at the pool year-round and having lessons is a good excuse to get us there. I find it only appropriate that I used the color Lost Lagoon for this card--it's a good swimming-ish color, eh?
I made this quick and easy card using the Lost Lagoon card stock along with the coordinating Backgrounds DSP stack. I textured the card base with the Polka Dot embossing folder (love those embossing folders)! I added a 1/2 inch strip of the Dazzling Diamonds glimmer paper to bling the card a bit and then finally added my "thanks" using the Sale-a-Bration set called Simply Wonderful (you can get it for FREE with a $50 order). I punched that with the decorative label punch and mounted it with some Stampin' Dimensionals. Gotta love 5 minute cards!
