Slimline Thank You Card Making Idea Featuring Floral and Botanical Motifs

Slimline Floral Thank You Card + Vintage Crocheted and Embroidered Linen

Slimline Floral Thank You Card + Vintage Crocheted and Embroidered Linen


I created this handmade thank-you card awhile back when the lovely people over at Pinkfresh Studio hosted a card making challenge to celebrate World Card Making Day. The card you see pictured above was my challenge entry.


At the time I originally made the card, I didn’t take a very good picture of it because I was in a hurry to beat the challenge deadline. I made a mental note to take a better picture of the card later. Then I promptly forgot all about it.


Fast forward to now. I’ve been unpacking boxes because I recently moved. A few days ago, I came across the vintage embroidered linen you see pictured in the background of the photo above, and it occurred to me that the vintage linens in my collection would make lovely photo backgrounds for all my craft projects. So I am working on updating and improving bunches of my old photos to look prettier.


What do you think? You can see the “before” photo below and the “after” photo above.

    The card is gorgeous, Amy! Thanks for the project idea.

    Now post a photo of the linen without the card on top of it, pretty please? I am dying to get a better look at that embroidery.

    Hi Tiffany! Thanks for dropping by. That linen is a vintage item that probably dates back to the 1930s. There might be a pattern for it, but if so, it’s a vintage one that dates back to that era or before. I don’t remember coming across it when I was actively collecting patterns from that era, but that doesn’t mean one doesn’t exist. It might. I am sorry to say I do not have a pattern for it available, though.
