Thankful Thursday

Hi All! So I've been thinking about doing a regular feature on Violets & Sunshine called "Thankful Thursday" that focuses on projects of gratitude--think thank you notes, gratitude journals, etc. And what better way to start off than with  The Paper Players theme challenge: "Thankful for Spring" thank you cards.

Here's my card:


I love the simplicity of this card! I started with a kraft cardstock base that measures 5 1/2 x 4 inches. I added paper from the Front Porch 6x6 paper pad by Pebbles and then adhered the chipboard sentiment (from Pebbles' From Me To You line). I love the spring colors in this!

Here are a couple of close-ups:



And here is our card once again:


Oh I am so thankful that spring is coming and that the sun was shining today! I hope this card put a little spring in your step. (Yes, I know, you don't have to be thankful for bad puns...)  Please let me know what you think about the Thankful Thursday idea.

    What gorgeous plaid paper! I love the touch of pink, and the newsprint matting, too. Thanks for playing with The Paper Players this week!
