Bubble Thank You Card

Hello there! Today I'd like to share a fun thank you card that I made for a friend.

Bubble Thank You Card:

To make this card, I started with a textured pink cardbase (4.25" x 5.5" or A2 sized). I trimmed a piece of white cardstock to 4" x 5.25" to leave just a bit of a matte around the edges when I later mount it on the card base. I used a border punch to create the bubble effect across the bottom edge of the white cardstock.

Next I used three colors of pigment ink to stamp different circles onto the top half of the white cardstock: yellow, orange, and pink. I varied the placement of the circles and stamped some of them off the edges of the card and into the area I planned to cover with ribbon. Then I stamped the sentiment using pink ink and set the white cardstock aside to dry thoroughly.

Once the pigment inks were dry, I adhered the black polka dotted ribbon to the white cardstock, wrapping the ends around to the back. To finish the card, I adhered the white cardstock to the pink card base.

• cardstock: white and textured pink
