It's a New Year and we are kicking it off with our first Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge of 2015.
Our sponsor for this challenge is Altenew! A randomly selected participant will receive a stamp set of choice from the Altenew shop, while the LEAD will be invited as a Guest Designer in a future challenge!
I pulled the colours from the photo and the bold sentiment from Altenew's Many Thanks set. There are a plethora of wonderful fonts and sentiments for words of thanks in this set - perfect for any style of thank you card. Hard to tell, but the cream panel has a linen texture for a little "oomph" as I was leaning towards a more masculine card. That is a masculine card for men who are manly enough to handle a button with a twine bow on their card wink, wink. If this isn't the case, I would replace the button/twine combo with a star.
Below is a list of the design team's cards for a bit of added inspiration.

ReplyDeleteHope you enjoyed your holidays. :) I had two weeks in a row where we had a four-day weekend...loved it, but not long enough. LOL
Still enjoying the book you sent me. What a great writer Ann is!
Gorgeous...ooops, I mean, how handsome, dashing and striking your masculine card is! Colours, the repeated thanks, the button and twine: perfect guy card! I noticed Colleen's comment about a book you'd sent her: would love to know the title if you have a chance. I could use a good read...
