Thank You card

Over the weekend I went to a Stampin’ Up! Training meeting with my awesome up-line and group.  These events are always filled with friends, great training and fun projects that I will be sharing with you.  However we also usually have a card swap and contest.  I was so excited to find out that I won second place with my Thank You card.  So I just had to share it with all of you.  You may notice that some of it looks familiar.  I took the tag from my Zucchini from the other day and created a card.  Hope you enjoy it.

A Little Thank You Tag

I had the opportunity this week to go down to Stampin’ Up! and help the advisory board with a project.   I wanted to take them a little gift just to say “thank you.”  I had lots of zucchini thanks to awesome Dad so I decided to make little zucchini breads with this cut tag.  I love how they turned out and it was so fun to share them with the hard working team.  I used the leaf from the holiday catalog along with a thank you set and the grunge set from the maim catalog.
