OWH Mid Week Throw Down - Thank You!!!

This week's challenge over at Operation Write Home is to create a thank you card. 

Here is mine:



I do love the orange and green color combination!!

The paper is DCWV Baby Girl Stack, stamp from Fiskars, ribbon from my stash.  I had a TON of scraps from this stack, and thought the paper was too cute to toss.  I used it to make a photo book shaped like a baby's onesie.  I will have to post it sometime...

Here is another version using DCWV Black Currant (like the orange and green one better!):

Triple Time Bobbi Style

I saw a wonderful card at DOStamping with Dawn.  I loved the look, but thought that 6 layers of cardstock, plus the card base, would be a bit thick for mailing.

So, I opened my trusty SCAL, and made my own cut file.  Instead of layering solid pieces of cardstock, I can layer frames of patterned paper and matting!!

You can download the free SVG or SCUT file to cut your own layered cards!



My version using DCWV Black Currant paper:




Different papers give a completely different look, like this funky K & Company paper :

Stamps are both TPC Studio.  

Added Note:  I have had requests to post the dimensions of the layers.  Here they are in inches. 
For the solid mat layers:
4.25" x 5.5"
3.25 x 4.5
2.25 x 3.5
1 x 2

For the patterned layers:
4 x 5.25
3 x 4.25
2 x 3.25

I Like Your Style...

I just love paper and purses, so I had to combine the two in these cards I made for Operation Write Home (http://operationwritehome.org).  

The top card uses Amy Butler paper and purchased embellishment.  

The bottom card uses DCWV Black Currant paper scraps, and I cut the purse embellishment using my Cricut and SCAL.  Black satin ribbon was used for the handles. 

Stamp from Clearly Defined.
