Cards for National Thank You Note Day

Hi everyone! Today, is National Thank You Note Day and it's a great reminder to thank our loved ones for their gifts, hospitality, and generosity. So, gather your note cards, scrapbook supplies, stamps, and envelopes ... it's time to send out some handmade cards!

For my latest Bella Blvd project, I made four simple cards using a various Bella supplies. I had so much fun mixing and matching the different paper collections!

4 Handmade Thank You Cards with houses, dogs, fruit, and a tree

My first card was super easy. I just took a 4x6 card from the Squeeze the Day collection and adhered it to the front of my card base with some striped paper.  I also lined my envelope with a cute heart print from the collection. Can't get much easier than that, and ... it's so cute!

For my next card, I used paper and ephemera from the Fa La La collection.  I used a circle die from Gina Marie Designs to cut out a half-circle on the right side of my white card base.  Then I used a scallop circle die from Echo Park to cut out the pretty blue pattern. I stamped the Thank You sentiment with a Doodle Stamp from the Many Thanks set. I think this card would be super cute to give to a neighbor!

For card #3, I used those same nesting scallop circle dies from Echo Park, and my favorite colors of Bella Besties to add some fun circles on the card base.  I cut the "thanks" word using the Doodle Cuts Many Thanks die set and a simple tree die cut finished up this colorful card nicely.

For my fourth card, I pulled out an older collection that is still one of my favorites, Cooper!  I know my dog loving friends will love to get this card.  I used an orange print from the 6x6 paper pad, a strip of flowers from a 6x6 sheet, some puppy and flower die cuts, and a 3 1/2" scallop circle punch.  The cute Thank You sentiment also came from the Doodlebug Many Thanks stamp set.
