Simple Thank You Cards and More Awards?

So sorry for the delay in posting!  My husband and I decided to take a spontaneous trip :)  He asked where I wanted to go and (being the animal lover I am) I said the zoo.  So instead of going to our local zoo, we ventured to the one in Columbus, OH.  With only one week left until school starts again, it was fun to get away! Now I bring to you some simple thank you cards I made.  You won't see a whole lot of sparkle here because these weren't cards for my own collection. I made them for someone else to use and let's face it not everyone loves sparkle as much as I do :)  

Materials for this card:

Card Base - 4.25" x 5.5"

Smaller Paper Strip - 1"

Larger Paper Strip - 1.25"

Blue Ribbon

3 Gems from The Paper Studio

Spots and Dots Embossing Folder

"Heartfelt Thanks" from Inkadoo Thank You Words

Chocolate brown Ink

All of the paper is from The Paper Studio

The Cut:

Bird - Create-a-Critter - 3.75"
