For today's Featured Stamper tankgrl (Heather) who has such a fun and awesome gallery!!
Today I participated in the Kidney Foundation Give the Gift of Life Walk and wanted to create some thank you cards for the people who sponsored me. Found this clean and simple card in Heather's gallery to CASE - WT192 by tankgrl at Splitcoaststampers
Now the image is a TATTOO - that's right, one of those tattoos kids put on their hands. I saw them and thought - I can put that on a card LOL. Applied it like you would on skin, just used watercolour paper instead, and it worked like a charm!!!
Things I changed from Heather's card:
- image
- theme - thank you instead of birthday
- ribbon placement - made mine into the traditional charity type ribbon.
I'm loving how this turned out - and that I used a tattoo! How cool is that!!
Thanks for taking a peek!

Wow, Laurie with a tatoo. Ya just never know! Lol! What a wonderful Foundation to support Laurie! Your cards are great and I am sure they will feel as blessed to receive these as they were to sponsor you. Your case of Heather's card is wonderful. TSMFS
