Thank You

I've not crafted for a while as we've been away for a couple of weeks in Cornwall and then we had an unplanned visit to my mother as she's been unwell.  I did have a little crafting time this afternoon and made this small 'Thank You' card with a Uniko stamp set that I've finally managed to buy as it's been out of stock for a while.

To make this card I used:
     4" x 4" white matt card blank
     Uniko 'Flower Power 5' stamps and coordinating dies
     My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Square STAX Die-namics' die
     Versafine Imperial Purple and Olympia Green ink
     Distress Ink Spiced Marmalade
     Copics V15, Y08 &YG23
     Snippets of white matt card

I used purple ink to stamp the flower onto a snippet of white card and green ink to stamp the leaves. These were embossed with clear embossing powder before being cut with the coordinating dies.  I then stamped the centre of the flower with orange Distress Ink.  I used a purple Copic to colour the flower, yellow to colour the flower centre and green for the leaves.  I die cut a stitched square from a snippet of white card and put it into my MISTI before placing the flower onto the panel so I could see where to position the sentiment stamp.  I removed the flower before stamping the sentiment with purple ink and embossing it with clear embossing powder.  I attached the panel to the centre of the card blank before gluing the leaves to the lower corner of the panel and using a foam pad to attach the flower.
