This week we are to make a card thanking someone for a RAK. I chose to make a thank you card for a local tree trimmer who always brings us wood from when he cuts down trees, which help keep the wood furnace going and keeping us warm. He never takes anything for this and we appreciate it so much. So this card is off to him with a little gift card tucked inside. To accommodate my tree I had to make a pretty large card. The tree is cut from Early Espresso and layered over a Sahara Sand mat that has been sanded and the edges distressed. I then stamped my sentiment and cut and matted using the banners framelits. I added an aged copper clip from one of SU's retired hardware kits and then popped it up. TFL ladies.

Oh wow, that's a great RAK to be thankful for. My dad had someone like that in his last house. Perfect card to thank him for it, too, with that great tree.
