This is for the Naturally Thankful Demonstratable Card challenge. I hope the flower/vine images count toward the challenge.
I know it seems kind of involved for a demonatratable card, but here is my rationale: let the guests play, and they won't be able to resist how fun this is!
Show how to use the cutter to cut/score the card base. (I sold a cutter this weekend with this nifty trick.) Have the "square"-cut pieces ready to go, and let a guest do the stamping for both the background (Canvas stamp in Baja Blue and Watercolor Vine in Pacific Point) and focal points (flowers in Baja Blue, T in White craft). Right there, 4 guests can get their fingers inky and see their creativity at work!
Using the 1-1/4" circle punch for the T is easy, and if you have some brave souls, they can try out the Coluzzle after you demo it once. (2-3 more guests getting in there!)
Anyone can use a marker and make dots (I lined my cs up on the grid paper to dot the Ruby Red piece.)
Demo how to use the Toolkit to place the brads. (I sold a Mat Pack this weekend via this technique.)
When you get it all put together (another opportunity for folks to try out the SNAIL and Dimensionals), they will see what a fab card they made with very little effort.
Hope you like my card. I did "cheat" on the inside, and used a retired sentiment, but you can't see that, so pretend you didn't read it here!
Thanks for looking.
