Chari has beautiful inspiration for today! She shows us how to make a coordinated set of Thank You cards in today’s video tutorial. You can watch the video below or click HERE to watch at our YouTube channel.

Thank you so much for watching! Now let’s check out more Design Team inspiration!


Chari‘s beautiful set of four thank you cards uses one sheet of Rainbow Ever After Fairy Godmother paper to make the ombré colored backgrounds. Then she also used bold die-cut thank you greetings with Backyard Bird Feeder and Backyard Bird Feeder Add-On images.

This first card features Tree Branches Backdrop: Portrait with Giant Outlined Thanks for the thoughtful message.


For this card, Chari used Tree Branches Backdrop again but the landscape version. She added cute squirrels, colorful leaves and Giant Thank You.


She switched up the design a bit for the next two cards, using Lacy Rectangle Stackables. Giant Thanks So Much fills the card with a little help from the cute birds!


And this card is so pretty with a unique design. Again, she used Backyard Bird Feeder, this time with Scripty Thanks!


Audrey created a stenciled design that is so full of gorgeous color! She used Daisy Bloom Background Stencils and Distress inks to cover the Outside In Stitched Rectangle. Her Giant Outlined Thanks greeting is bold in black and white. And for detail she added black hearts from Hearts and Stars Skinny Tag and some black splatters. So beautiful!


Megan‘s interactive Pull ‘n Slide Surprise features a charming Crazy Antics scene!


I love how she arranged part of the scene on a vellum circle so the clouds and speech bubbles “float” above the card. And she hid the adorable thank you sentiment under the slider to be revealed when the card pops up!


Yainea’s card is so fun combining stamped images with Book Club Washi tape to create a cute classroom. She used images from Little Woodland Library Friends with the chalkboard from Simply Celebrate Graduation. Her thank you sentiment combines So Much to Say with So Owlsome.


Mindy‘s whimsical card is so “fangtastic! She combined Fangtastic Friends and Fangtastic Friends Add-On with the wonderful new Tree Branches Backdrop: Landscape to send a sweet and clever thank you!


Tammy‘s cute teacher thank you card gets right to the point! Her pencil design hides a gift card behind the scalloped window “chalkboard”. The Little Woodland Library Friends add so much cuteness!


Oh wow! Marine‘s Pull ‘n Slide Surprise card is just amazing! Using bright colors and the cute images of Smooth Sailing she made a memorable Father’s Day card! She included cute critters and banners from Fly High and water splashes from Beary Rainy Day. And the lighthouse “island” is a rock from Wild Wolves, so clever!


The thoughtful sentiments are visible when the slider is pulled up! At the top she spelled out dad with Finley’s ABCs, adding a sentiment from Smooth Sailing. Then at the bottom under the slider there’s a die-cut “thanks” (from Pull ‘n Slide Surprise) with another sentiment from Thanks, Thanks, Thanks!


Marine created the ocean themed background with Ocean Wave Stencils, Cloudy Stencil and Rainy Sky Stencil.


Latisha‘s thank you card is so “fairy” sweet! She combined Spring Flowers Backdrop and Fairy Friends with a pretty pastel color palette!


Elise created a simple background, stenciling stratus clouds with Grassy Hillside Borders layered on top. Then she arranged a cute Backyard Bird Feeder Add-On scene and a message of thanks!


Elena‘s design sends a thank you message with Giant Sending Big Hugs! It fills the card with just a Stratus Cloud stenciled background and Grassy Border. Extra cuteness comes by way of the Backyard Bird Feeder and Backyard Bird Feeder Add-On squirrels!


Perfect for thanking special teachers, Grace‘s Pull ‘n Slide Surprise cards are so clever! She started with Really Rainbow True Blue paper for the rainbow lined notebook paper, so appropriate for a school themed card. Then she die cut the cute Outside In Stitched Apple to fill with fun details. The mouth and cheeks are from Stitched Sun Frame and the mortarboard and glasses are from Woodland Critter Huggers Graduation Add-On.


Grace used Big Scripty Words stamps and coordinating die to add thanks along with a sentiment from Thanks a Bushel. I love the A+ from Henry Jr.’s ABCs.


I love how Grace filled the glasses with Holographic 2.0 cardstock! It is such a clever detail that makes this design so special! She stamped the sentiment from Apple-solutely Awesome to be revealed when the slider is pulled.

Grace’s Interactive Build-A-Bird Feeder Card


Another fun Adventures in Cardmaking LIVE is coming your way TOMORROW, Thursday, April 24 at 10am PT/1:00pm ET. Join the East Coast Fawnies, Chari and Jenn, for a fun and crafty time, click HERE to be notified when they go live!

Grace combined the new Pull ‘n Slide Surprise and Build-A-Bird Feeder with lots of lovely color! The result is so beautiful!


Grace created this pastel gem using What’s Sewing On paper for the card front and Pull ‘n Slide Surprise panel. She die-cut flowers from Spring Sprig and Little Flowers adding color with Lawn Fawn ink. Then she added detail with alcohol markers. There’s also a branch from Tree Branches Backdrop: Landscape and the little birds from Build-A-Bird Feeder. And she added the delicate hello from the Pull ‘n Slide Surprise set.

Grace arranged the bird feeder, birds, branch and flowers on a vellum filled Stitched Scalloped Circle Frame. It looks so lovely!


Grace made a clear bird feeder with two panels of acetate. Then she filled it with Chunky Glitter and seeds cut from Woodgrain cardstock.


Pulling the slider reveals the sweet sentiments from Backyard Bird Feeder and Backyard Bird Feeder Add-On. Grace stamped the sentiments in Crunchy Leaf ink and then she added more pretty flowers.


Your card is absolutely gorgeous, Grace! Thank you so much for inspiring us!
