Quick Holiday Thank You Notes

Good day to you! Janette here sharing with you one of my favorite types of cards to give during the holiday season, a thank you. I prefer to keep mine on the simpler side so that I can make several.

Each year I create a bundle of them for post carriers and delivery drivers, to the house/yard keeper, to gate attendants for our neighborhood, to teachers that dedicate so much energy to our children. These cards are perfect for enclosing thoughtful gift cards to employees and party hostesses. The list could go on and on!

To create this A2 card, begin by die cutting the largest Fir Tree Infinity Die into Kraft Layering Paper and Gold Glitter emboss with the Christmas Lights Bold Prints.

Color each bulb with two shades of colored pencil for depth and interest. Adhere tree to A2 Snow Folded Card base with dimensional adhesive.

Create sentiment with Cut-Out Christmas Fancy Die in Snow Layering Paper and back with gold glitter cardstock. Again, pop with dimensional adhesive and press in place.

On the interior of the card, stamp "Thank You" from Hand Drawn Everyday Messages in Antigua ink and a secondary sentiment from the Thanks Stamp & Cut set in black. These two sentiment sets are among my favorites for their vastness and versatility.

Consider this a virtual card from myself, and the team at Hero Arts, to you. Thank you for visiting. We wouldn't be here without your support! We'll see you soon!
