SUper Friends Garden of Thanks Make and Take Card

 Today I'm sharing the first project we made on Sunday at our SUper Friends gathering!  If you've been following along with this series of posts, you may remember I mentioned it was the easier of the two cards we made.  The reason for that is we made a card from the Garden of Thanks kit!  

The card bases in this kit are printed on both sides, so I was able to cut apart the bases for 1 design, and we were able to get 6 cards from those 3 bases.  I added Old Olive card stock bases for everyone, and was able to make more of the Petunia Pop banners that go on the card.  The grid-like design printed on the banner matches one of the stamps from the Expressions of Kindness Kit!  

Another secret, there are only 3 "thank you"s in English in the kit, there are also 3 "merci" and 3 "lieben dank", but I wanted a 4th thank you, so I used the negative space to guide me in writing another thank you and then fussy cut it.  It did take me a few times practicing to get it how I liked it, but it was do-able to make more!   Here is the card I created:







Since our gathering, I was able to finish up the rest of the cards in the kit.  They went together really quickly!  And, I'm including photos of the other designs as well.  







Which of these 3 designs is your favorite?
