Monochromatics

Well, I was in a monochromatic kind of mood while I was creating last week.  This is what I came up with!  The navy card was for my Friday Night Hostess Club!  The olive card was for my Wednesday Night Hostess Club!  They all seemed to enjoy the cards and I was pretty happy with how they turned out as well.

The Botanical Gazette paper and the Nature Walk stamp set is one of my new favorites.  I wasn't always into vintage (I know, I know), but this set has made me start to enjoy them more! 

Fun Envelope Card

I have found a new kind of card that I LOVE!!!  It is an envelope card!  It is made from one sheet of 12x12 Botanical Gazette Designer Series Paper, some sticky tape and the embellishments of your choice! I modified the directions that I found on this great blog http://thepixiecottage.blogspot.com/2010/03/super-envelope-card-tutorial-from-anne.html  When it calls for sewing the envelope, I did not do that.  My sewing skills are sadly minimal!  I used double sided sticky tape instead. I finished it off with Night of Navy ribbon and a label using the Elizabeth stamp. Had to then add some self adhesive pearls! It was really fun to make and really easy too! I also made one using a 6x6 sheet of DSP.  It is the perfect size for a gift card!

  

Why don't you give an envelope card a chance and send back a link with your creation!
