Happy Boxing Day!!

Hi there - hope you all had a wonderful Christmas yesterday, if celebrating! Many friends are celebrating Boxing Day today, so enjoy! In the US, there's a lot of returning gifts or shopping sales. My sister and I will be going to a crafty "make 'n take" at a local craft store - I might share those cards if they're cute...

Today I'm sharing some thank you cards for Christmas gifts, starting with one using a  Memory Box embossing folder/die set I bought quite a while back but hadn't used yet. Since newly used, I'll add to Darnell's December NBUS Challenge #69.


Supplies: Paper - Neenah Solar White; 
Paper Studio Holiday; scrap of bright green
Embossing folder w/dies - Memory Box Poinsettia Corner
Dies - Frantic Stamper Giant Layered Thanks 
Other - white gel pen & orange fineliner

I made a bunch of cards with that Frantic Stamper thanks die - a fave of mine! You can see a version from earlier this month HERE. Frantic Stamper sponsored Die Cut Divas this month &, if you'd like, you can still enter a card with a fancy/uneven edge HERE until 9p Pacific time on 12/31/24. 

Here's one I made for my neighbor Theresa who baked me some delicious cinnamon bread. This time I used the thanks shadow layer with some Graphic 45 Merry and Bright papers and ephemera:


Here are a few more in a single photo:


The striped paper on bottom right is Authentique, otherwise it was more Graphic 45 - love that paper!! At lower left I used some big brads. Don't often use them on cards anymore due to the bulk but they were in an embellishments box I received as a gift. Thought I should use them on the thank you card!

That's it for today, friends. Thanks for stopping & have a wonderful Boxing Day!!
