Thank You Card to Marylou

Well, some how I forgot to post this from May 2019!

I created and sent this Thank You card to dear Marylou because she kept in touch with me often to check on my well being after Joe died.  

What an awesome lady and sweet friend!

Support is always the most uplifting thing a friend can do for another!

I decided that creating a handmade Thank You card was definitely warranted!

I had received a new order of gorgeous Stamperia papers. 

This is the collection called "Azulejos de Sueno" which means in English "Dream Tiles"!

Such a gorgeous collection!

Here is the beginning of what I created for this dear lady....

I started by creating a pocket to the front of the card. 

This is how I did it....

I scored the paper in 1/4 inch sizes and then folded it over to form a pocket.

Folded over the edges....

Then used Scor-Tape adhesive to keep the pocket in place.

Although the 'inside' of this pocket is absolutely gorgeous, the outside meant much more to me. 

Look how nice and neat the pocket came out!

The pocket is decorated with diamond-shaped bling. 

Now for the inside.....

Using the same diamond-shaped bling and blue vellum to print Marylou's note...

These are all of the pieces included in this creation.

A beautiful envelope that has a personal enclosed note. 

And a bookmark.

Simple, but beautiful, thanks to this gorgeous paper collection!

Thanks for your visit and have a very happy week!
