CAS Thank You Cards

Hi, everyone!  This week's Featured Stamper over at Splitcoast is Sue aka gregzgurl.....congrats, Sue!!!!  I fell in love with this gorgeous clean and simple thank you card....still needed two simple thank you cards to take on our cruise which we will be going on very soon....yay!  On both cards, I used the 'Chalkboard Fan Background' and a sentiment from 'Sentiments Collection' each from Our Daily Bread designs.  Each strip was cut at 2-1/2" so that they would fit through the center of the die which I used to cut the bottom only.  Once each strip was positioned, I used repositionable tape to hold it in place, then ran through my Grand Calibur for a couple of cranks only and then reveresed it back out, just enough to cut through the end but to keep any die impressions from embossing on the rest of the panel.  (See photo below.)

Once each panel was cut, the edges were sponged and sentiment stamped.  I was tempted to add pearls or ribbon to the top of each, but chose a small strip of matching cardstock instead.
