No Matter the Weather returns!

 I warned you!

Here is a fun card and envelope project for you to 

try out. 

Remember,  if you do not have this set, see what you have in 

place of it.

This is a fun way to make your envelopes,

so start with two same size envelopes. 

You will be cutting on the landscrape (long side)

of the envelope.

The one on the left shows you to cut 2" at the top,

I used a pair of decorative scissors on this one.

The one on the right has you just cutting away 1/2",

once done lick the envelope shut.

The next step for the envelope with be to run the one

envelope on the right through the corrugator.

What this will do is give the paper a crinkle

look but also aids in making the envelope just a slight

bit smaller the long way so that you are able to

put the top of the other one you cut over it.

This is the other 2" piece that I cut with decorative scissors,

I like how the scissors I chose has a scallop edge to them. 

Using the flowers in the stamp set, I stamped the across the

top of the envelope.

When done both pieces should look like this

Now onto the card....

Cut a piece of colored cardstock at 3 3/4" x 5"

Then a piece of white cardstock at  4 3/4" x 7"

Fold your white cardstock over and prepare

to stamp your images.

I used a blender pen to get nice and light

colors on my design

I always like to add a little 3D images to the card

so I used stampin' dimensionals to pop up the pot

of flowers and the rabbit.

You can see from this angle how the card sits on top

of the base piece of red. 

Once your card is all done it fits nicely right into

the corrugated envelope.

Like this!

Now, take the top of the other envelope and put it over the

top of the base to close the envelope off.

I made a small tag for the card and used jute twine

to tie it off. 

Here's a few close up's of it.

Here it is before putting it in the envelope. 

So fun and cute to make!

Do you think you would make one of these?

If you do,  send me your pics!

I would love to share them!

There will be more of this set showing up,

I promise!
