Isn't this fun? I made this card to send to my daughter at uni (just in case she forgets how much I love her!) but you could easily make it say 'thanks a ton' or use it as a valentine or anniversary card instead. I find the Day to Day Project Life stamp set (which features days of the week, months, numbers etc) is brilliant for random words like the 1 TON here.
I cut off part of the die to make the weight. Using Naturals white card stock and sponging with Smoky Slate ink really adds to the rough, heavy metal look! I love the contrast between that and the shiny sequins in those pretty colours. I am a huge fan of these in-colour sequins - I've used them again and again and still they go on like the magic porridge pot!

I am so excited today because my lovely girl is coming home today! I'm meeting her from the station and we plan to spend the day catching up together - and there may or may not be unrestrained shopping and lunching involved!
I hope you have a wonderful weekend. I'll be back on Monday with lots more crafting ideas - hope to see you then!
What a super clever idea. Your daughter will love it! Hope you both have a lot of fun together today.
