Thank You

Hi there! So happy the weekend is nearly here ~ in my opinion Fall is the best time of the year here in Phoenix because I don't have to get up at 5:00 a.m. on the weekends to take a bike ride with Tina! The mercury doesn't rise up to the 90+ mark until after 10 a.m. or so therefore we don't have to hit the road until 7:00. Funny how something so simple can make me so happy  :)

Anyways, I made this Thank You card using a few of my favorite things ;) I combined a piece of pretty patterned paper from the Pink Paislee City Sidewalks collection with a few MFT stamps and dies.

I stamped the sweet bird from Inspired By Spring on decorative die cut made using a die from Die-namics First Place Award Ribbon Die then layered it on top of a doily made using a die from Die-namics Open Scallop Doily DUO. I was inspired by the current Tuesday Morning Sketches.
Thanks so much for visiting! Hope you have a great day/evening! 
Be Sweet :)

MFT Supplies Used:
Stamps: Inspired By Spring, Finishing Flourishes
Dies: Die-namics Open Scallop Doily DUO, Die-namics First Place Award Ribbon Die, Die-namics Mini Royal Roses
Cardstock: MFT Heavyweight Cardstock: Kraft, Whip Cream
Buttons: MFT Grapesicle 
Other: MFT Hemp Cord
Patterned Paper: Pink Paislee City Sidewalks
Embossing Folder: ProvoCraft Herringbone
