Enduring Beauty Thank You card

Enduring Beauty- detail view

So I have a passion for greens and pinks on a card.  I can't help it..... these colors just call to me.  Granny Apple Green and Melon Mambo are two of my favs and the Enduring Beauty stamp set just screamed for me to use these bright colors.  

I made this card for Kylie Bertucci's Monthly International Blog Highlights.  The theme is "Thank You".  I love making thank you cards.  Sending a thank you card is one of the easiest ways to show people that we appreciate them and their kindness.  You will find the free instructions below.

I would appreciate your vote for my card.  Go to this link and vote for your top favorite 5 cards of the submissions.  Vote by clicking the heart in the upper right corner of the photo.   The top 10 winners participate in a Winners Blog Hop with Kylie at the end of month.
