Pretty and feminine and subtle NOTE CARD thank you card.  I used those perfect sized note cards to create this sweet, little card for someone very special who is always doing the sweetest and kindest of things, special gifts, sweet notes and lovely conversations. Can’t say who yet as the recipient may be reading my post.  wink. wink.  Shhhhh….!

My card today was created with the lovely Background Bits stamp set that you earn as a Hostess Set with a $150 or more order.  It is such a lovely set and I see it for me personally to use for a more “vintage” style of stamping.  I used Crumb Cake ink and spritzed the lovely doily we see in a mix of Alcohol and our Crumb Cake reinker together and spritzed it to create a pale, but vintage “tea stain” look.

I did all the stamping on the front of the card by “stamping off” which means I inked up the stamp itself, THEN I stamped “off” on a scrap piece of paper and then stamped onto my card front.  It gives it a pale, subtle look and perhaps a more “old time”  look.  I used the sentiment from our Eastern Beauty stamp set and it fit perfectly onto of the center of my folded up doiley.  I cut the sentiment circle out with the STITCHED FRAMLITS to give even more dimension and noticeability. 🙂

Here is the stamp set!  So pretty!
