Thank You Card: Faux Linen
I learned this technique from Bobbi Jo V. a Close to My Heart Consultant. Bobbi Jo found the idea on Split Coast Stampers: Faux Linen Technique. Using photo paper, a thank you stamp, and black CTMH ink, stamp the words "Thank You" over the entire photo paper. A card size stamp with a verse or over-all design works great too! Once the ink is dry, gently sand horizontally and vertically until all the gloss is gone. Next, using a sponge, apply a light colored ink to the sanded photo paper. Gently sand again. After selecting a flower stamp, finish the card by stamping on the design, adding a ribbon, and adhering the photo paper to the card.

Snap Happy!
Love this bag! Stitchin' Sisters from Fall Creek, WI created the pattern called, Snap Happy. http://stitchinsis.com/ What is fun about the bag is the closure...a metal measuring tape is inserted into the casing, so that the bag closes shut. Can't wait to give this bag to a friend who ran (and finished) her first 5K.
