Handmade Thank You Cards

This year, I decided to make my own thank you cards for the holidays.  Some friends and I got together for a crafting day, and it was the perfect opportunity to try some new things!  I love how these cards turned out, and definitely plan to keep doing this throughout the year.

Paper Source (my new obsession) is a great place to source the materials needed for this project.  Here's what I used:

• Envelopes and paper 
• Pretty paper to line the envelopes
• Envelope liner template kit
• Tape runner
• Rubber stamps
• Stamp pads (ColorBox is the best!  You want high quality stamp pads)
• Embossing Powder (I only buy clear, gold, and silver embossing powder and then invest in different color stamp pads.  You can get more versatility this way.)
• Embossing Heat Tool (you will not regret this purchase)

The whole project takes about an hour.  Anything that can be completed in one toddler nap time is golden in my book.
