I still have some left over Yen, that has been laying around, from when we lived in Japan. I used a 1 Yen piece for the center of my card. It matched the center of my dragon fly I made with my SU Pretties kit and some silver leaf charms for his antennae. I used wire cutters to make the hat pin smaller, added my beads and crystal effect to secure the end cap. The paper I chose to make this card was my Basic Grey Infuse collection. A few of the papers looked somewhat Asian to me. The circles on the center paper looked like Japanese paper parasols. I popped the white pattern paper and the center flower up. Short & Sweet Thank you stamp was used on the chip board tag. The Dragon fly was cut from green embossed pattern paper. While living in Japan, my dear Japanese friends had a personalized stamp made for me. I was able to use it on the circle background piece. I LOVE my stamp and cherish it!!

Heartfelt Thanks
Today I had a small break from little Leila while she was napping. I was able to make four of these "Heartfelt Thanks" Thank you cards. The thought I had for making these was for my friend Sarah. She had put my name down on a referral for housing and they are sending me a check for $250.00! It was so nice of her to think of me! It is the same papers I had used for my Mom & Dad's Anniversary card. I love that with a good design and a few changes you can have a completely different card! The stamps used on this card were Baroque Motifs, Heartfelt Thanks and Word on Word. The card's dimensions are 5 1/4" x 5 1/4".
