All these cards are super easy to make, so I am sure that you will enjoy recreating these over and over! 

But before we start, let me tell you that today’s post is part of a blog hop which features Thank you cards, so you will get lots of ideas for thank you cards when you hop with us. 

Easy Thank you Cards 

Below you can see the Thank you cards I have made. As mentioned before these use the Notecard sets. These sets come with 20 cards and 20 envelopes which makes them very convenient for putting together easy cards. 

Also these note cards fit into the mini paper pumpkin boxes, which make them perfect if you want to create card sets as a gift.

Like i have said these are super easy Thank you cards that you can make in no time. 

You can see how beautiful these cards look with the Hand-Penned Suite. I love that this suite has lots of colors, so you can easily pick a couple of these and make cards that coordinate as a card set. 

Color Combinaiton 

Here is the color combination that I decided to use. I love purple and so I couldn’t resist using the Highland Heather as one of the colors that I selected from this paper pack. 

If you ever struggle with color combinations, just pick two of the colors from the designer series paper and then add a neutral/basic color and you will see how all will come together. Give it a try, you will see how easy this is. I always come up with color combinations that I would not have used otherwise.

Below you will see a close up look a the Thank you Cards I made. Once I have selected the color combo, then it is just matter of choosing a layout and play with it.

Three Thanksgiving cards using the Sparkle of Season Bundle

 

These cards were made pairing the sparkle of the season Bundle with the gorgeous Blackberry Beaty DSP.

The bundle not only will help you create Thanksgiving cards, but you can also do Christmas cards and even Halloween.. So the bundle is super versatile. 

Color Combination 

If you know me, and have been following me for a while you know that I love using the designer series paper (DSP) as my source for color combinations and this was not the exception.  

See below the color combination for the Thanksgiving cards I am sharing today.

I honestly love using the DSP as inspiration as I can come up with color combinations that I would normally not use, making me feel even more artistic. Plus because everything color coordinates with the Stampin’ Up! products, making cards cards just becomes so much easier. 

Card Details 

You can see a close up to all of the cards in the pictures below

An Easy Fun Fold Card for a Thank You note

Blog Hop KB

Are you into easy fun fold cards to make? I know I love to incorporate fun folds for my cards, however I also look for the ones that are easy to make as I don’t have too much time to be doing one single card in hours..

So when I find easy fun folds you can hear me squeal in my craft room.. Even better if it maximizes my cardstock! 

But before we start, I want to make sure you know this post is part of an amazing blog hop, where demonstrators around the globe are sharing thank you cards! so please hop with us and visit all participating blogs, I am sure you will get lots of inspiration. 

So without further ado, let’s get started!

Easy Fun Fold Card

As mentioned above, for my thank you card, I wanted to use and easy fun fold. Mainly because this adds a little of a WOW to your card, and it doesn’t take forever to make.  

See below how this card looks. Is this not a beautiful Thank you cards? Who would want to get one of this cards in the mail? Right? 

Easy Fun fold to make for a Thank you card.

As far as the construction of this fun fold card, the base of this card uses one piece of cardstock that is 4 1/4″ x 11″, you score it at 5 1/2″ and then you cut a 2 3/4″ piece from the long side, to have a piece that is 4 1/4″ x 2 3/4″ which is the one that goes on the front as the top layer.  (You can watch the video tutorial below) 

Then you just need to cut 2 pieces of DSP. In my sample the one on the flap of the card is 2 5/8″ x 4 1/8″ and the second piece (dots pattern) is 2 1/2″ x 4″. 

For the inside I use a 5″ x 3 3/4″ basic white cardstock. And then I just embellished the front with the flowers as well as the bow and the sentiment using the Flowers of Friendship bundle. 

To finish off the card, I colored the rhinestones with stamping blends in daffodil delight and add them to my card front as well as the flowers, and then add a bow using the Polished Pink open weave ribbon. 

Color Combination 

For this card I decided to use the following color combination 

Since I was using the Party Pattern designer series paper, and I wanted to use the Black and White pattern, I knew I wanted to use the pink to pop some color in my card. 

I love how well these colors go together, and I have use this color combo in several on my cards. 

You can see this post where I shared three cards using this color combo but with the Timeless Tulips stamp set (which is one of my favorite sets). As you will see in that post, is that this color combo works really well when you want to use flowers.  

Video Tutorial 

As usual you can check the following video tutorial where you can see how this card was made step by step, as well as measurements.  You will see how easy this fun fold is to put together that you will want make this fun fold over and over again.

But before we start, let me tell you that  today I am participating in a blog hop where the team of the projects we are sharing is Thank you card ideas! So make sure you check all the participating blogs. I am sure you will get lots and lots of ideas that you will want to case right away! 

So let’s get started! 

Three Cute Thank You Card Ideas 

As you can see in the picture below, this time I used the Turtle friends bundle from the Annual Catalog with the You are Peach Designer Series Paper (DSP). 

These Thank You card ideas turned out really cute, and I loved how well the DSP coordinated with the cute Turtle Friends bundle from Stampin’ Up! 

Three cute Thank you cards using the turtle friends bundle from Stampin' Up!

Color Combination 

As usual I got my color combination from the DSP, and while this particular DSP is all about peaches, you can see that it looks really well with the Turtle set! 

Below you can see the color combination I picked for this paper pack 

I know I say this all the time, but it truly is the easiest way to get color combos for your cards, just pick a few colors and then pull everything you have in those colors to start playing with them! 

Thank You Card Ideas Details 

Fancy Fold Thank you card #1

Fancy Fold - cute Thank you card ideas using the Turtle friends bundle from Stampin; Up!

For this first card, as you can see it is a fun easy fun fold that you can make in no time! 

You just need to fold the card base in half and then the card front again in half, then it is just matter of embellishing the front. 

Just make sure you pay attention to where you are add adhesive when gluing the elements on your cards, as these have to be glued on the left side of the card front to not close your card shut. 

And to make this card even cuter, I added another scalloped rectangle for the inside and add the white cardstock and a piece of designer series paper to match the front. 

I love adding a small piece of white cardstock, whether it is this decorated, or just plain white cardstock for the area to write my message. This helps me not get overwhelmed so I can quickly address it without feeling like I have to write a novel. I noticed that just doing this small change helped me in mailing cards more frequently.  

 Thank You Card #2

sketches to play   Cute Thank you card ideas using the Turtle friends bundle from Stampin; Up!

This sketch is a great one for you to use scraps of designer series paper as you just need to punch out the rectangles using the postage stamp punch and mix and match the patterns, so if you have a lot of little scraps this is a great sketch to use. 

Thank You Card #3

I love this layout a lot and I think I have been using it a lot lately! I this this is a great one for you combine patterns from the paper pack of your choice. 

Also did you noticed that the turtle is stamped in the Soft Sea Foam and then just added little details with the stampin’ bends?  this is an easy way to put together this cute little turtle. You can see exactly how this one is colored and assembled as I popped out the shell with dimensionals. So make sure you watch the video tutorial for these cards.

Thank You Cards 

As I was mentioning in the beginning I decided to use the You’re a Peach suite for my thank you cards as this suite goes really well for Summer. 

And since I need to be sending the thank you cards during this time, it made so much sense for me.. Do you do your thank you cards based on the time of the season you are going to send them? 

Anyway, if you have not seen this suite, check the graphic below! 

You're a Peach Suite

The colors in this suite are so beautiful, and the designer series paper and the bundle coordinates really well together. This is one of the things I love from Stampin’ Up! in all honesty.. All their products coordinate really nice making it easy to create cards in a breeze.

It never fails!

 

Once you have the colors you want to use, then just get everything you have in these colors, as far as cardstock, and embellishments. That way you are ready to start playing and create cards.
