Holiday thank you cards - post 3

Hi Crafty Pals,

Yep I'm still here plugging away with the blog. I just hope you are liking some of my creations.

So we are down to the final 3 cards and then I'm up to date with my creations, but I have a Stampin' Up!^® promotion to post as well. I don't think I've done this much blogging in one day before phew.

On this card I've used products from the new 2013 Spring Catalogue and the 2012 Holiday one (ordering ended this week).

Ingredients

Designer Series Paper and Card Stock: Festival of Prints stack (2012 Holiday Catalogue), Whisper White (100730) and Crumb Cake (120953)

Stamps: Pennant Parade (122742 - Clear-Mount or 122740 - Wood-Mount)

As I look back at the final card for this post I can see things I'd change such as stamping the Thank You (Primrose Petals) on to scratch paper first so the colour on the card itself isn't so vivid.
