My project features the Expressions in Ink/Artistically Inked collection of products, because that's what I've been working with all weekend. My pal Wendy and I had our Artistically Inked Blue Ridge Stampin' Escape this weekend, so it's been all about those beautiful watercolor splashes and flowers!
I'm always in need of Thank You cards, so I try to make some up whenever I can. I LOVE the font used for the "THANKS" sentiment in this stamp set. So pretty isn't it?
Anytime I do a White card, I always start with a THICK Basic White base. This one is a standard 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4".
Then, I added a 5 1/4" x 4" layer of regular Basic White Cardstock. You can use thick for this layer too, if you want. But I keep both kinds on hand so I just use the regular for layers.

The next thing to do is attach the DSP layers. The floral one (with that gorgeous gold foil accent) is 5 1/4" x 1 1/4", and the Gold Foil striped one is 5 1/4" x 1/2".
I stamped "THANKS" in Evening Evergreen ink, just above the DSP layers. Then I stamped the large flower in Pale Papaya on a scrap of Basic White cardstock. I die cut the flower out and then attached it to the card using Stampin' Dimensionals.
The bow is made from Polished Pink 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon, and then attached to the edge of the flower using a glue dot. I added a few of the In-Color Jewels to finish it off.
