I love Elvis- always have and here is my signature thank you card. Not very original- but it really gets the job done and I have had great comments about it. No embellishments on this one- but I do put some black brads on it when I have them. Very easy to make 10 or 12 in a couple of hours. See the next post for the inside- again very simple. I ordered the stamp from eBay and it doesn't have a manufacturer or company name on it. The sentiments are printed on the computer.

I have always loved him always will.
He passed away the day I came home with my new born baby girl Aug 16th 1977. I can remember it like it was yesterday.
But it was 30 years ago. Where does the time go?
I sat in my front room just a crying when I heard the news.
My husband said I was crazy to cry over someone I didn't even know. I said what are you talking about I KNOW Elvis.
I have even been to Grace Land where he lived at and is resting now. To me ELVIS still live's. He lives in my heart.
Love the card. Would love to have just one of them cards to hang in my stamping room. Could you send me one?
Here is my email address if you could send me one I would sure love it. My daughter love's Elvis too. And so does her 9 year old daughter. I guess its a girl thing right?

I think I have seen this stamp at vivalasvegastamps.com. If not this stamp, then one almost like it. They have several Elvis images.
My daughter too is a fan and for her 16th birthday we took her to Grace Land and stayed at the the Heartbreak Hotel.
Thanks for sharing your great card it brought back some wonderful memories of a very special trip!

I saw Elvis in Vegas in 1975. I was in 3rd grade and it was the best day...I even have a scarf! He threw it into the audience, and my Grandfather caught it and gave it to me!!!!

Hi This is Shirley Lacroix.
I forgot to tell you before that when my Uncle went into the
Army. Elvis was in his unite with him. My Uncle was and still is a big fan of Elvis. I have a lot of photo's of the two of them together when they where in the Army in Germany together.
Long Live The King. I too spent the night in the Heartbreak Hotel. Took my daughter there with me. We had a great time there at Grace Land. Got to love the King of Rock and Roll.
