The secret garden stamp set from Stampin’ Up!® was perfect for making this set of thank you cards, and a little “thinking of you” card too …

I love these colours together – so pretty …

I used the stamping off technique to get a faded look to the images –
stamping once and then stamping again without re-inking the stamp…

A handful of adhesive pearls here and there added a finishing touch …

The sentiment is from the retired “sincere salutations” set.

Here’s what I used to make today’s cards – all supplies from Stampin’ Up!:
cardstock: soft sky, smoky slate, whisper white; stamp sets: secret garden, sincere salutations (retired); inks: soft sky, smoky slate; accessories: adhesive pearls, stampin’ dimensionals.
Thanks for dropping by today
