The 3rd of each month is a special day here on my blog - it's the day that Kelly (the founder of this series), Barb, and I share our One Plus Twelve cards. The idea is to use the same ONE stamp (not a set) each month to create a card. Sentiments can be used, too, if we choose. Want to know more? You can read all about it on my January 3rd blog post - found HERE.
My ONE stamp this year is the maple leaf from the Stampin' UP! Gather Together stamp set.
This month I stamped it on colored cardstock with colored ink and then used a blending brush to add some additional color to the leaves after I die-cut them.
Sentiments are allowed so I used one of the sentiments from the Taylored Expressions Simple Strips Background stamp/die set. My husband has needed a lot of Thank You notes lately and I thought this card would be a good one for his use, since it's not girly.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
