Thoughts and Prayers Gift Set
August 9, 2009
One of my new favorite Stampin’ Up! sets is the very special Thoughts and Prayers set. One of my dear friends asked me if I would make a gift card set for a silent auction recently. I was thrilled to be asked and honored to participant in the annual Morgan McCarty Scholarship Foundation fundraiser. I thought of the beautiful tree image in this set and decided it would be perfect as a symbol of hope and renewal. So I made this cute tote and 8 cards- four with Thank You and four with Thinking of You for the sentiments. These were so easy to make I am going to work on several sets just to have available when you need a quick gift for someone special.
You can’t really tell from the photo but I overstamped the Chocolate Chip with Certainly Celery. I really miss Soft Sky- maybe they will bring it back along with another fave- River Rock!
Many blessings for a wonderful week,
Diane

Your set is beautiful. I really like the simplicity yet it looks elegant. Since you mentioned overstamping with the celery, if we look close, we can see it. Thank you for sharing!

I saw this on SCS and had to come visit your blog. This is such a wonderful set! I am planning to make a set for a friend’s wedding and I was inspired by your beautiful tote. I want to make her one like it! Thank you for sharing your idea. I will come back to visit your blog soon! -mnfroggie
