Thank You card set

A friend asked me to make her a set of Thank You cards. She wanted them fairly plain, no embellishments, with the Asian symbols for thank you and in black and white.  This is what I came up with. I added the third color, because it was just a little too plain! Although my friend said that I could just stamp it onto white paper and then glue that to a black piece of paper. The writing was embossed with black embossing powder and then I just layered black, red and white papers that I got from Hobby Lobby. All in all, a very simple set of cards to make, especially since I was doing a set of ten of them. My friend liked them very much! Thanks for visiting tonight!
