Simple Sunday #5 - Thank You

Today I am sharing another Simple Sunday card and video here on the blog. I did struggle a bit with this card and things didn't really go as I planned. I seem to be having that problem a lot lately and I guess you could say that I am having a bit of a "craft block". But the best way to get through that is to just keep crafting and make things even though they do not really end up the way you want. 

For this card I used stamps and dies from Uniko Studio.
