Best Buds Thank You

Here's my card for the current challenge at CAS Colours and Sketches.  I used the layout to create a simple floral thank you design featuring stamps from Paper Smooches.

I colored the floral banner image with Copic markers, then cut out the colored image with the matching die.  The set's "thanks a lot" sentiment was stamped inside the banner.  For the background, I adhered a wide strip of yellow gingham patterned paper to a pale yellow card base.  For contrast, a narrow strip of rose cardstock was added to the top of the gingham panel.  After winding a length of gold thread around and securing it to the right side of the cardfront, I added the image panel on top, using foam tape for dimension and extra adhesive for the thread.

Materials Used:
Best Buds stamp set, Best Buds Icons dies (Paper Smooches); Memento Tuxedo Black ink (Tsukineko/IMAGINE Crafts); markers (Copic); Barely Banana and Regal Rose cardstock (Stampin' Up!); Lemon Tart patterned paper (Papertrey Ink); foam tape
