This week's Tuesday Trigger at Moxie Fab World is taken straight from the current issue of Stamp It Magazine by Super Stamper Kim Hughes. Check out all the wonderful inspiration there http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2010/02/tuesday-trigger-inspiration-straight.html
Plus The Olympics of Stamping is going on also. I thought I would enter this card in the "Thank You" category for that challenge too.

I needed a Thank You card for a sweet friend and was totally inspired by the beautiful color combination of yellow, kraft and black. I played around with this design and finally decided on this one. I made my background paper by stamping my single Damask design stamp six times in yellow ink on white card stock. I then scored a line down the center and two lines between each set of two designs. The "Thank You" stamp was inked onto a solid yellow card and cut with a scallop trimmer, then the ribbon was threaded thru two small punched holes...those teeny tiny pearls are separate and they were very carefully :) glued on the bottom. I was pleased with the outcome ~~ what do you think?
pretty card, helen! the pearls are wonderful!
