Hiya friends, today I’m sharing a card with new Quietfire Dies! Simply elegant, the “Thanks” was penned then put into design by my sweet friend Suzanne Cannon. I love that it’s her handwriting and that it works in conjunction with the Thanks stamp set I used earlier this month in this post. So I made a long profile card that fits into a business sized envelope. Measuring 8-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ I mounted a panel punched with the Martha Stewart Fans and Flourishes border punch to get the length that I needed for the focal panel. To give the die cut word a little bit of dimension against the cream I cut one in Aqua Mist and one in cream (darkened up with Antique Linen Distress Ink) and stacked them together with the bottom one slightly offset – that gives a little bit of shadow.
I finished up with a bow and some pearls! :-)

So I hinted around yesterday that I’ll be starting a giveaway tomorrow. You said you wanted to see some ideas of what to do with my new dies. Well, this is my most favorite gift item, as of late, and is made with my new Swirl Bliss Pocket die. When you see how easy it is to make . . . well, I can’t wait to see what you think. At any rate, I made this gift item in duplicate and one of the two are being given away here. More details coming tomorrow :-)

Can’t wait until tomorrow.

Hi Becca, the colour of your cardstock is just gorgeous. Simple card but so elegant. love Helen
Your imagination and versatility is simply amazing.
This card is gorgeous, but I would not call it simple. Not difficult, maybe. The result is still elegant. It is adorned and not plain. Becca, your work is magic. Simple for you is magnificent for me. :)
So fun and pretty!!!
Becca, Your new card is truly lovely
That is simply gorgeous!
The aqua and white colour combination is so lovely and clean looking. The pearls add another layer of richness.

Gee this is so pretty and something we all know you bring to us regularly. Many Thanks!
Soo beautiful Becca and the color is also one of my faves too, so it makes it even more beautiful to me.
Morning Becca, This is gorgeous, the font on the sentiment is beautiful and looks great with the shadow effect, I love the blue colour too, and the Martha Stewart punch has provided a lovely backdrop to the sentiment flag.
You are such a tease !!!!!! fancy tell us and now we have to wait until tomorrow to see !!!!! hahaha.
We are doing a Car Boot Sale for Church tomorrow, starting at 8.30am, it is always a great fundraiser for Church funds, we are always on the bric a brac stall and always come home dirty hahaha.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
Good morning Becca,
I do like your dinky cards that you make and i can see why you love this “thanks” die as it is so clean but fluid and you can feel yourself writing just in this way, i just wish i could write big enough for it to be seen to make into a die in the first place. You are hinting about your swirl dies which i feel in love with the minute i seen them on your blog and ordered them up as i just think they are the most exquisite and stunning, versatile dies that i have purchased in a long time. Can’t wait to see what tomorrows project is though that i can make with them.
With love and crafty hugs across the ocean to you flower,
Norah (Glenochil Village, Scotland )
Hi Becca,

Hi Becca love the colours and the way you have
Offset the die cut word makes a difference.
Have a lovely weekend xx
What a lovely idea. These came in the post last week and I wanted to use them for notelets but you have given me heaps of ideas, thank you. Favourite die? Every weeks a different one & I simply couldn’t choose xx
Hi Becca. Such a pretty card and lovely colours too. Have a great weekend. xx
