I was in the process of making these cards for a gift that I am giving to a friend of mine who is expecting a baby girl shortly. I made 60 baby thank you cards and because they were really easy to make I had them finished in just a few days.
Last Monday's CAS challenge was to make a Clean and Simple card using only small pieces of ribbon. Well, it just so happened that I could only use a small piece of ribbon on these cards because I didn't have a lot of pink ribbon left.
I stamped the bear using Brown Stazon and I water colored it using SU Watercolor crayon and blender pen. My background is embossed using the Swiss dots embossing folder and cuttlebug.
My sentiment is from the SU stamp set Curvy Verses. Inside the card I used the thank you stamp also from the Curvy Verses stamp set.
Thanks for looking!

Lovely card! I am adding this to my favs for when my friend finds out what she is having, I can start on them. This would be a layout easy to duplicate and replicate in bulk. She is doing a Winnie the Pooh theme, so I need to find a pooh stamp - any suggestions on where to look?
How did you get the ribbon around the bear with a hole punch?

Thanks, I'm glad that you liked my card. My card was really easy to 'mass produce'. I feel that when I need to make a lot of one card then I need to keep it simple.
I have a hand held hold punch that punches small rectangles. After I colored the bear I just punched where I wanted the bow and I used the faux bow technique with the ribbon.
I have some Winnie the Pooh stamps, but I'm not sure that they are quite what you may be looking for. I'll send you a pm with some more info.
