Circle of Thanks

A clean and simple (CAS) thank you card and layout. I made this card for a round and round challenge: use one or more circles on your card. This is what I made.




Stamps:
   Circle Circus
   Thank You Kindly

Paper:
   Real Red A-2
   Whisper White 2 x 5-1/2
   Cutie Pie DSP 2-1/4 x 5-1/2

Ink:
   Pacific Point
   Tempting Turquoise
   Rich Razzleberry

Technique:
   CAS

Accessories:
   Pretties Kit
   Brights Button Collection
   Glue Dots
   Adhesive

First, I decided on a main focal image for my card: a large flower from the pretties kit.

Next, I stamped the Whisper White piece with circle images to complement my focal point. 

I added a strip of DSP under the Whisper White to accent it a bit.

I then embellished the card. I used a red button. There are endless options here. Rhinestones or pearls can be added to the flower center or the circles. The flower can be dyed a different color. The button can be replaced with a brad, rhinestone, beads, etc. 

This layout is simple and versatile. Turn the card vertically, and you have a completely different look and style.

The card's uniqueness and character shines through when a crafter adds their own embellishments. This is when you make a card your own. Have fun!

Thank you very much for spending your precious time here. Let me know what you think. 

HAPPY STAMPING!
