Happy Birthday - Amazing Woman- with measurements for the Envelope Notecard

This is a card for a beautiful friend of mine and I have made it with the same design as the Envelope Notecards used for CTC#48. I have had a few request for the sizes so thought I'd make another one and note the measurements as I went!
I have used the English Garden DSP with some of it's lovely colours.






Envelope is 71/4" square, Punch and score at 31/8"mark
round all corners
Mats
Mossy Meadow   51/8" x   35/8"
Mint Maccaron    5'       x   31/2"
Shimmer White   43/4" x   31/4"

The Belly Band is 13/4" Wide and I just cut a12" strip and trim to a comfortable length once I have made and embellished the card inside. I like to be able to almost slide a finger between the card and the band so it will slide off easily. I staple the band together (smooth side of the staple facing down on the envelope, i.e. on the inside of the band- if that makes sense) then just adhere an embellishment over the join and the rough edges of the staple.

Hope that make sense and that you try one!! any questions please feel free to contact me.

You could make these any size you like.

Thanks for looking,

Liz

Envelope Dies perfect for an Acetate Tent card and some new DSP

After creating yesterday's cards I was on a roll and created this one using the beautiful Gilded Autumn DSP and the Fancy Phrases stamp set.  I really love the sentiments in this set.  It is such a simple design and easy to create. You can find all the directions on yesterday's post for Just Add Ink (JAI#518)  I watercoloured the white leaf after I had adhered the gold veins just to soften it, and I added a strip of mint DSP to the front of one of the tent stands as the white was a bit stark. That's the cool thing about this design, you can change it up plenty of ways. I'm sure we can all send these type of cards at the moment. I hope you are safe and well, and staying connected, wherever you are. I hope you have a creative week and remember,  "don't just post online,  post something pretty!" cheers, Liz Product List Ornamental Envelopes Bundle [ 155168 ] $83.50 Envelopes  Dies [ 153531 ] $63.00 Shimmery White A4 Car
