Thank You ACK

Today I needed some more thank you cards.  Since I also wanted to continue using up this HOTP Artful Card Kit (ACK) called Sunshine & Smiles, I decided to use those materials.  

Card #1 (above): This first card is obviously a gate fold card.  The background paper is from the ACK and the focal was cut from the center of one of the included die cuts using a die from my circle die set (Lifestyle Crafts).  I inked the edges of the cut focal and matted it on a gold piece of tag board that had been cut using a die from Spellbinders' Luscious Labels One.  I also matted the background on the gold card stock.  Then I added gold washi tape borders top & bottom and a sentiment cut from a Crafts U Print freebie.

Card#2:

Again I mostly used supplies from the ACK.  From my stash I added a dark green scrap of card stock for the border & the green letters for the sentiment.  (I drew around the edges of these with a Sharpie pen.)

Inside:

Inside there is more of the same ACK materials.  These two cards bring my total so far from this ACK to at least 5 (a few items were missing from the kit, so I must have made something that wasn't included in these blog posts).
