Thanks, Thanks, Thanks!

Hello! It's Bridget here today to share an easy card for using up strips or ends 

of cardstock that you have lying around!  Go with any color theme 

or a rainbow one and choose any die-cuts, but here I used the fabulous

 SNSS Stars Die Set .  Your dies will need to be broken apart for a design like this -

I always hesitate to do that as I'm afraid I'll loose the little 

ones, but I'll just have to be extra careful!

Because I don't always take the time to put each die back right away 

when I'm in the middle of designing a card, I keep a little 

box to throw my dies into - then they're safe and 

sound for putting away when I'm cleaning up.

 It's best to use a lighter color for the strip stamped with the 

sentiments - these are from a very useful recently released 

set So Thankful - it has 23 mix and match sentiments, 

so it's perfect for a design like this with multiple stamping!

Various widths of strips were adhered to the panel, then it was turned over

to trim each side.  The stars are then placed in position to

 leave a strip for the sentiments.  Normally I use the C plate on the bottom, 

dies next, cardstock next, and then the B plate when using my Cuttlebug - 

but in order to keep the dies in just the right place on the panel, I used a "sandwich" 

directly opposite with the B plate on the bottom so that it's easy to  

lay the stars in just the right place for cutting.

The panel is then popped up on the white card base with plenty of dimension 

and it's finished with a few sequins in random places.

Thanks so much for stopping by today, have a great week!
