Tip! Use your Envelope Flap as a Stencil!

What did you think about this “happy accident” that I created last week during my live video!?

I think it’s gorgeous!!  I used the envelope flap as a stencil… while I added color to it with my Blending Brush, I just slipped a 1/4 sheet of Basic White cardstock behind it and got a “2 for 1”!! (A colored flap AND a pretty card front!)

The envelope is from this Gold Foiled Flowers pack.  Order your cards/envelope packs online: Gold Foiled Flowers cards & envelopes #162589

I pulled out a favorite stamp set from a previous Online Exclusive release – Irresistible Blooms – and used it for the flowers and leaves on this card.

The In Color Pearls (pictured below) coordinated just perfectly with this card!

I used Berry Burst ink for this handmade card project.. what color will you use to try this pretty card design?

  4. I especially liked the tutorials you did on the “Gold Foiled Cards & Envelopes” and the one you did this last Friday 1/26/’24, “The Double Decker Fold Cards” in the “Adoring Hearts” & “Bee Mine” Bundles. I appreciate all your insights, tips, and measurements, as well as the work you put into the projects. Thanks so much.
