PTI - Make It Mondays - Thank You!

I am SO EXCITED about this new PTI feature called Make It Mondays.  Not only did the video explain making a Go-To card but it came at the perfect time for me!  I wanted to make 10 Thank You cards for a Fabulous group of ladies who made 75 Valentine's Day Cards for a nursing home I've been making cards for for the past three years.  It's quite a daunting task to do by myself and my stamping group came through for me!  So THANK YOU to these wonderful ladies!  (I will be posting their cards and names on my blog post this Sunday.) 
Here's my Thank You card!  Once I figured out my design and where I wanted the different Thank Yous to go, it was so easy to mass produce them.  (Cleaning up is going to be another story!!  LOL!)  Also another new thing for me was to run my new Copic marker (thank you Andrea M!) YR24 Pale Sepia around the edge of the Razzberry Fizz instead of using a distressing ink or different pen.  The Copic marker just seeps into the paper adding color and I LOVE how it looks!
 
Can you see I also ran the Razzberry Fizz through my Cuttlebug with the woodgrain impression plate?  So pleased with how this card came out!  Now I have to write a note and sign them all!

I'll keep it short because I could write a comment as long as a bookpage about this STUNNING AND FABULOUS CARD.
Is it enough when I tell you that I love this?
It's PURE BEAUTY!!!!
