A couple of thank you cards

Happy Monday friends! I hope you had a fantastic weekend. I am popping in with 2 quick cards today for CAS(E) this Sketch.
 
 
Last Thursday my hubby and I celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary. To help is celebrate, my wonderful in-laws watched the kiddos for a couple of days. So I wanted to show my appreciation with a card.
 
I used some DeNami washi tape for the strips and added You are Sweet (cling) for my sentiment. I finished it off with a few sequins.
 
 
When I am in my craftroom, my daughter Leah usually wants to be in there with me. She often wants to make a card so I told her "Why not try making a card for a challenge or two." So she combined this week's CAS(E) this Sketch with CAS-ual Fridays. The last card she submitted to CAS-ual Fridays, she used glitter strips, so I thought she would do well with it. Since CTS required strips at an angle, I thought I would help her lay them down this time. She picked her sentiment to fit nicely along the glitter and added her flower sticker to some leftover patterned paper. Not too bad for a 5 year old.
 
 
Thanks for stopping by!
