TTG Thank You Cards...

Card Order for the Tucson Tri Girls.  I was asked to make thank you cards for the Tucson Tri Girls Sponsors that resemble their 20th Year Cycling Kit.  This is what I came up with..

I used my new cacti stencil on Gorgeous Grape with Gorgeous Grape ink  I layered it on a white, then mounted it on a black card base.  I cut little strips of black cardstock (the hardest part of the whole card, lol) and applied them to the white layer.  Next I stamped my custom made Tucson Tri Girl stamp in Gorgeous Grapeand die cut it with a circle die and mounted it with a black circle.  Then I mounted it on pop dots.

How'd I do?
I also made a thank you card for the order.

Thank you for having a peek at my blog!

 

Good Luck Kirsten!!!

 One of my cycling friends asked me if I'd like to be her Sherpa for her Half Ironman in Indian Wells.  I was honored to do it!  I made Kirsten this card to wish her luck for her upcoming race.  

I got the inspiration for my card from the Indian Wells Half Ironman website.  The colors they used were teal, orange, and a palm tree...so this is what I came up with.  I ran the US Map Sizzix folder through the Cuttlebug then colored in California with Orange.  I mounted it on a Bermuda Bay card base.  I used the Palm Tree from My Favorite Things Sunny Vibes stamp set and die-cut it, mounting it on pop dots.  I die-cut Captions Numbers in Only Orange and mounted them on the card base.  Sentiment is from a really old set from Stampin' Up called All Year Cheer III.  Tied a bow with orange baker's twine to finish off the card.
