We’re kicking off a cards week or two! Whether you send a card for a birthday or special occasion…it’s a perfect touch to make a card. And also a perfect way to use up your supplies too!
So join us as we share ideas for a bit of everything…starting today with Thank You Cards.
Whether it’s to create dimension or provide a strong bond, Therm O Web offers a wide variety of adhesives to tackle any challenge. See how I used some of my favorites to create these fun and colorful thank you cards for any occasion.
Thank You Cards by Patti Milazzo
“Thanks”
Therm O Web Supplies:
Therm O Web Mini Runner – Sticky Dot (green)
Therm O Web Zots™ – Small
Therm O Web Zots™ – Medium
Therm O Web Zots™ – 3D
Therm O Web iCraft Adhesive™ Tape ¼”
Therm O Web 3D Adhesive Foam – Squares
Other Supplies:
Bella Blvd – Snapshots, Daily Chevies and Sand & Surf pattern paper and stickers
Silhouette Portrait to cut out sentiment and circle paperclip (Silhouette); Punches by Martha Stewart and Fiskars; bamboo cord
Instructions:
Create layers on the front of the card – stitched pattern paper and a crimped tag. To prevent the tag from flattening when applying adhesive, opt for Therm O Web’s iCraft Adhesive™ Tape.
Add additional layers of pattern paper with a Mini Runner.
Create the tiny banner by attaching flag punches to the cord with Zots™. The 3D Zots™ will give the banner a little dimension on the card.
Dimension can be added with 3D Adhesive Foam, as shown with the heart punch.
To complete the card, a small butterfly punch was attached with a Small Zot™ folded in half.
Here’s another card using many of the same Therm O Web adhesives.

Therm O Web Supplies:
Therm O Web Mini Runner – Sticky Dot
Therm O Web Zots™ – Small
Therm O Web Zots™ – Medium
Therm O Web Zots™ – 3D
Therm O Web iCraft Adhesive™ Tape ¼”
Therm O Web Supertape™ 1/8”
Other Supplies:
Bella Blvd – Snapshots, Daily Chevies and Sand & Surf pattern paper and stickers
Silhouette Portrait to cut out sentiment; Punches by Martha Stewart and Fiskars; hemp and bakers twine
Instructions:
Create a scalloped border by layering circle punches over a strip of iCraft Adhesive™ Tape.
Use the Therm O Web Mini Runner for quick application to layer pattern paper.
To create the tiny pennant flags, use Therm O Web Medium Zots™ to secure paper that’s folded around toothpicks. Apply these thin Zots™ behind the finished flags to adhere them to the card front, too.
Use Supertape™ and Zots™ to create the rosette from an accordion folded strip of pattern paper and 2 punched circles.
Then adhere the rosette to the card front and attach the decorative button using Zots™ again to finish the card.
As you can see, Therm O Web Adhesives makes layering and adding dimension to your projects a breeze! I hope you’ve been inspired today with these fun cards. Thanks for visiting!
