Basketball Thank You Cards

 I seem to be on a bit of a card making kick these days. Last week I needed some thank you cards to give to my sons' basketball coaches. Here's what I came up with. 

 

I kept my supply list for this very simple: White card stock, two pieces of patterned paper from Paper House (Basketballs Double Sided Paper and Soccer Tags Double Sided Paper), Paper House Sports Planner Stickers, and my Silhouette Cameo.

I cut all 4 of my card fronts at the same time with my Cameo. When cutting out a greeting, I like to use a scripted font that connects. It's also helpful to pick a font that doesn't have too many centers that you'll need to add back in (For example the "a" and "o" on the card on the left don't connect at the top completely, so they get left behind. The card on the right looks just fine with the centers to the "a" and "o" missing.). 

Since the basketball themed paper has a lot of detail to it all on its own, I kept my embellishments simple. A few stickers from the Paper House Sports Planner Stickers book were all I needed.
