If you’ve visited my site or social media, you’ll know that my design preference leans towards clean & simple. This Touched My Heart Card is not really an exception to that! Touched My Heart is one of the host sets that you can select with Stampin’ Rewards. When sales hit $200CAD (in a single submission), you’ll start to earn a percentage back to spend on product of your choice – including exclusive ‘host’ products. You can hit this threshold by either stocking up on products, hosting a catalogue/online party with friends or joining my Stampers Club.
I created this card to send as a thank you to those who placed purchases recently, and also to send to members of my Demonstrator group, the “Eh” Team, with the reward certificates that I send out at the end of each quarter. I like this image because it allows me to do a bit of colouring with my Stampin’ Blends (I used Old Olive here) but isn’t overly time consuming. I think I did a whole bunch of these while binge watching Netflix. (I think it was Bridgerton to be specific LOL).
I used my current favourite 3D Embossing Folder, Painted Texture for the background. Can you figure out my trick for colour coordinating ribbon? I used the Gold 3/8″ Metallic Edged Ribbon, and used the Light Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Marker to colour the ribbon itself. It dries quite quickly, and is fairly forgiving in terms of hiding any streaks or uneven colour.
When I send out thank you cards to customers I tend to use sticky notes on the inside so that the cards can be re-used; I figure it’s an extra bonus?! The Touched My Heart Card could be used for a Valentine’s Day or Galentine’s Day card, with the heart motif. Perfect for someone who might not appreciate an overly fussy card…
If you are needing a crafty outlet, consider joining us in Stampers Club? We meet online each month to make a variety of card projects, and once during your membership you’ll earn the Stampin’ Rewards for the club orders that month (so you can select the Touched My Heart host set!). If you’re wary of commitment, there’s Monthly Card Class by Mail – with supplies and written instructions to create the projects (no need to get Zoom presentable LOL). Contact me for registration details! In the meantime, I hope you are keeping well during these crazy times.
