Embedded Thanks

Welcome

I recently made a set of four thanks cards 'on commission'.
The customer does not like frilly and fancy, so I went with embedded die cuts and minimal decoration - and they were a hit.


All four had washi tape to embellish


One had a twine accent


one lace,


and the other two rhinestones as well.


Here is the full set.

My apologies for the brief post, but life is still fairly hectic.
