Send an Easy Quilt Thank You Card!

By Nancy Nally on June 20, 2016 in Card Making, Paper Crafts

This quick and easy quilt thank you card is perfect to send to your favorite quilter, or create a set to give as a gift!

Supplies:

Amy Tangerine “The Sweet Life” 6″ x 6″ paper pad
Buttons Galore “Summertime” Button Bonanza
White cardstock
Embroidery Floss
PPA Matte Adhesive
Pink & Main “Many Thanks” stamps
Colorbox Chalk Ink Paintbox in Primary Pastel

To make this card, first cut a 3″ x 4″ piece of white cardstock. Cut 1″ squares out of two different patterned papers for the quilt squares. Arrange and glue them to cover the white cardstock backing.

Attach the quilted piece on top of the light pink patterned paper and trim to mat it with a small border.

Cut a 4.25″ by 5.5″ sized piece from the dark pink patterned paper. to use as the background of the card front. Attach the quilted piece to the card background, leaving a slightly wider border at the bottom.

Stamp the sentiment across the bottom of the card front. Fold a piece of cardstock to make a card base (or use a pre-made card). Attach the card front to the card base.

Select six small buttons from the “Summertime” Button Bonanza. Tie embroidery floss through the buttons, and adhere with glue.

This card design could easily be adapted to a variety of occasions. Change out the color scheme for blue and yellow, or pink and yellow, and you have a “welcome baby” card. And quilts go great with a fall chill in the air…made in browns and oranges, your quilt could wish someone a “Happy Fall!”

What occasion will you make a quilt card for?
