I needed a thank you card for a guy recently and considering the time of year, I went with a red, white and blue color scheme. I used DCWV's Industrial Chic stack which has a nice distressed look to the papers. I stamped the sentiment for the front using brown ink to match the colors of the cardstock. I used the basic shapes label from SCAL2 for the blue die cut layer. To finish it off I added four brads and the brown ribbon. The sentiment and the layers it is matted with are popped up with foam tape.
On a side note, it appears as if Google reader will cease to exist TOMORROW on your blogger dashboard. I have chosen Bloglovin my replacement reader and
