Pergamano Thank You Cards
Just a quick post today ladies. I want to show you a set of six Thank You cards I made for my girlfriends. The cards are made of parchment paper using parchment techniques with Pergamano tools.
I lined the cards with pastel embossing paper, and placed matching taffeta bows on the card fronts. I love the soft, delicate appearance of the parchment paper, it’s so beautiful! The pattern I used is from a Pergamano book entitled The Language of Flowers. This is my first attempt at parchment craft and while not perfect, I’m very happy with the results and think my girlfriends will love their cards.
If you’re interested in parchment craft, please be sure to check here later in the week, I’ll be back to show you designs I’ve made from a beginners kit, as well as recommendations for a DVD that I sell illustrating the basic parchment techniques with Pergamano tools. I’ve listed below the products I used to make these cards under the heading Shopping.
A picture of the set of cards in Apricot, Blossom, Light Yellow, Light Green, Ice Blue and Violet.
Please be sure to come back Tuesday for the JustRite Blog hop, I have some beautiful designs to show you.

It is important to be fitted with the correct size. Ill fitting sneakers can cause damage to your feet as well as your back. There are plenty of ways you can measure your feet. The retail outlet where you buy your sneakers will have measuring tools. You need to make sure the Cheap Nike Shoes is not too small or too big. If you do not have the proper fit, it will not only affect your performance, but it will cause injury to your feet. You will also be likely to develop bunions and sores on your feet.
I’m extremely impressed with your writing skills as well as with the layout on your blog. Is this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself? Either way keep up the excellent quality writing, it is rare to see a great blog like this one nowadays..
