I'm so excited! This is my first card made with the newly released Clear Dollar Stamps that I received for my term as Guest Designer! I used Julee's Mojo Monday Sketch for my layout, and used these pretty papers from Studio D called First Blush. I just got these from Michaels and loved the vintage feel to them. I paired the papers with SU! long retired but still loved Cranberry Crisp and True Thyme.
I love this set from CDS! It's a 10 piece set called "Words of Gratitude". More than any other card, I find myself needing Thank You cards so this was a great selection for me! The set is so versatile it can be used mix and match style~ as I did here I actually used 3 different stamps on this card front~ they also would be great for outside / inside sentiments.

Grace this is gorgeous - I love the sentiment and you have certainly done a great job for CDS and Mojo Monday - love it...I think that having the right sentiment makes a card - as it is so hard to get good sentiments from brought ones not that I buy cards anymore....I love a card to have meaning...and this sure does!! Fabulous Grace, as usual!! Thank you for sharing!
