Here are three "multi-lingual" thank you cards - all created essentially the same way - just different colors.
They started with a Cuttlebug embossong folder called "Thanks", and white card stock that I had colored with gelatos (choose several colors - scribble over paper, blend with baby wipe). After embossing, I colored the raised areas with metallic cream chalks from Pepples. These were applied with the clip applicator and mini cotton ball as usual. I sprayed each with a sparkle spray (Sheer Shimmer Sparkle Spritz). While that dried, I found coordinating card stock which I cut & folded to make the card base. Then I rounded the edges of both the base cards & the focal embossed pieces before adhering in place.
For the insides I simply took pieces of paper the same size as the card fronts, then cut a piece that was about 3/8" smaller on all sides. I rounded all the corners & used the smaller one on top as a mask while I applied gelato colors to the edges in the same way I had done for the front. Here's one. Simple but effective:
