Xmas Scrap Paper Strip Thank You Cards

 Are you tired of everything Christmasy?  Do you have a pile of scraps next to your paper trimmer? Is writing thank you notes the last thing on your agenda? ..... yes, yes, and yes! Well, as the old adage says:  When the going gets tough; the tough get going...er, crafting!
As in the previous post, I took simple strips of scrap paper and glued them onto a rectangle slightly smaller than the card base. I stamped and heat embossed white powder to add the words 'Thank You' (Hero Arts) to a solid colored strip. Red and white twine was wrapped around the rectangle and a leftover cardboard Xmas embellishment was glued on before the whole rectangle was attached with double stick tape (Heiko).
The lower corners of the card base and paper strip rectangle were clipped with the corner cropper (We R Memory Keepers).
Don't forget about using up your leftover Xmas washi tape on your envelopes.....remember this is probably your last chance to use up Xmas supplies before they have to go bye-bye for another year. Now onward to writing those thank yous.....no more procrastination!
