Thank-You Card Week: Simple Thank You

 Today is another feature by my friend Allisha. 
 For this card you will need:
1 card (she used kraft cardstock) 5 1/2 x 8 1/2"
craft stamp (on this card: Making Memories Floral/Dingbat Foam Stamp Set)
2 pieces of craft paper: Middle stripe is 1 x 4 1/4" and the flourish (bottom) is 3x 4 1/4"
2 pieces of ribbon
Die Cut letters or stickers to spell "Thank You"

1.  Cut card and fold.  Stamp top left hand corner.  Allisha used a walnut Stain Distress Ink.
 2.  Cut your two decorative papers.
 3.  Hook ribbon to the back of the striped center piece of paper (at the top) and then adhere the paper to the card.  Tie ribbon in a knot on one side.  Trim ends.
 4.  Adhere the other piece of patterned paper to the bottom of the card.  It should slightly overlap the center striped piece.

5. If you are using a die cut to cut your letters out, then turn them into stickers with one of these awesome sticker makers.  After we did the Birthday Card week and Allisha showed me how to use this (which makes adhering tiny pieces so much easier after you have turned them into a sticker, I went right out and bought one.)  Adhere letters to the bottom right hand corner.
 6.  Stamp part of the same stamp used in the top left hand corner on the edge of the right hand corner and you are done.
Happy Crafting!!!
