Quick and Easy Thank You Cards

 

These are some of the Thank You cards that I made - after I returned from my trip to Nashville. I plan to send a personal, handwritten note to each person who attended my mini scrapbook class that I taught at the National Railway Convention.  I am also planning to send one to each family who allowed us to visit their Garden Railways.

For those of you who may not know about Garden Trains - these are large scale trains that people set up in their back yards.  Below are a few photos that I took of some of the layouts.  Some of the displays were just amazing!  My husband decided this would be a good retirement hobby, and is currently building a layout in our back yard.

Below are a few of the cards I made, using the leftover "scraps" from the scrapbook.  The designer paper has long since retired - but I thought the "grungy" look was perfect for a train scrapbook.  As you can see, they all look different - depending on the card base and DSP I used. Because the cards were made with Stampin' Up! supplies, the color coordination between the patterned paper and card stock is PERFECT!





Basic Directions for Making these Cards:
  • Card stock card base: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 scored at 4-1/4
  • Designer Series Strips: 1-1/4 x 4 (you will need three pieces)
  • Cardstock strip: 1/2 x 4-1/4
  • Basic White 2" card stock circle for stamped image
  • Sunburst punch (retired) for coordinating card stock behind stamped image
