Thankful For All You Do

Hello Friends!  I decided to play along with the Simon Says Stamp Challenge again. The challenge is 

EMBOSS IT.  

And here is my card…

I finally used my  pinwheel die and cloud embossing folder from Stampin’ Up!  Clean and simple. Fun and playful.  After embossing the white card stock, I stamped the greeting. I am really loving the larger sentiments lately. Next, I matted the focal panel with a touch of blue on the sides.  I used the scraps from the blue card stock trimmings to create the ‘sticks’ for the pinwheels. Then I adhered the pinwheels with dimensional adhesive. I added a few rhinestones for interest. Could be rain drops? I don’t know! But, I wanted some sparkle on this card and that was the best way to get it! As I’m typing this I’m remembering that I have rhinestone brads! Ack! Next time…

Anywho…that’s all for me today. Have a great Thursday! Thanks for stopping by.

Blessings~
