Hello all,
Well this past week our local bank branch was closed due to lack of use during Covid two of the three staff chose to take redundancy the third is planning to work from home for a while before she thinks she'll join them. My parents have opted to change banks (grudgingly) as they prefer to deal with a human, the ladies that worked at the branch have been there for many years and I made them each a card to say thank you for all their help over the years.
Here are my cards:-
What I used:-
Kraft slim line card blank
text background paper
Kaisercraft High Tea paper pad
CCD Stitched square die
CCD butterfly die
Scrap silver and vellum
Sentiment from High Tea paper pad
Adhesive Pearls

A really super set of lovely creations, great images and colours, lovely designs too. We have had two of our banks shut down in our small town, so annoying.

Oh dear Megan, that's so sad, really sorry for your parents and folks like them. I do agree with them too. Though must confess rarely go to my banks. So my bad too.
Love the bright very cheery thank you cards you made too, all so different.
Thanks for sharing, and may God bless and keep you and all whom you love safe and well.
Prayer hugs, Shaz in Oz. X

Loving all your cards, and I am sure they will be appreciated
Stay safe

These are wonderful Megan and, I suspect, much appreciated by those local bank clerks. It is such a shame that local branches are not sustainable because technology has taken over xx
A beautiful trio of cards and how lovely of you to think of making them for the ladies in the bank, I am sure they will be touch by your kindness and effort in making them.
Your second card is beautifully done, a technique I have never yet got around to! Thanks for sharing with us at Allsorts challenge.
