How to make this card:

I started by making a cardbase and covered it with a scalloped panel. I then stamped one of the branches from STRONGER TOGETHER and heat embossed it. I masked the leaves and stamped the bg before inking the bg and spattering on some gouach. 
When everything was dry I stamed my Thanks sentiment in black.
