Thank You cards


Eight examples of a basic card with variations. I made these for family thanking them for gifts and/or attending my Birthday party. Some of the supplies used in making the cards were part of the gifts I received. My son gave me $ for more paper, cardstock, etc. My Father-in-law and his wife gave me stickers, buttons and stars
packed in a handmade bag/purse. My daughter and Grandson gave me a couple of stained glass coloring books. I got other gifts as well including St. Patrick's themed items
(leprachaun, t-shirt, mug, stuffed animal and talking bottle opener), a relaxing fountain, picture frames, and cookbook. My sister, Melanie gave me a SISTERS frame. The letters were the "cutouts" for the pictures. She gathered pictures from when we were quite young up through my sister, Michelle's wedding in 2000. She also gave me an angel for sisters.








I had a great party hosted by my neice, Lacy and her family. We had green cake and margaritas, burgers and hotdogs, chips and dips AND lots of fun and togetherness. We even had two "virtual guests" via webcam from Missouri. My Mom and brother, Mark.
