Thank You...

Hello blog,

WOW: I heard we were going to get snow by Monday, so was I surprised to see it was falling hard from the sky earlier today :) I so love seeing fresh snow on the ground, and even better when I walk in it and hear the crunching underneath my boots! lol.

Anyway, I wanted to share some cards I recently made for a few special people to say "thanks". I've used my new Stampin' Up! stamp set called "Seeing Spots" that I received as part of my Starter Kit and decided to use the different stamps in the set with different colour ink pads so that I could create three different cards. Hope you like:

First card I did, I used my two favourite colours - Bashful Blue and Pretty In Pink.


Recipe
Stamps:-
Seeing Spots (2008-09) - Set of 6 stamps. Available to buy in the current UK Idea Book & Catalogue 2008-2009 - P.50. I have used two out of the six stamps.
Circle of Friendship (2008-09) - Set of 8 - P.60. I have used "Thank You For Everything Over & Over Again".
SU Cardstock - A4 Whisper White, Bashful Blue, Pretty In Pink - P67-69.
SU Ink Pad - Bashful Blue and Pretty In Pink - P.69.

Okay, here's another Thank You card that I've made using the same stamp set as above, just chose two different stamps from the previous card:
