Using “Leftovers” for a NEW card & Hand-lettered Envelope
As I wraped up all my Valentine’s Day crafting for this year, I was left with lots of leftover bits and bobs that I thought would look great together on a card! So I’m using leftovers from previous cards for today’s very clean and simple card design. I used greetings from the XL Love Greetings stamp set that I used on this card, and cut out gold hearts from the Basic Box Hearts dies that I used on this card. I also paired it with a hand-lettered envelope.
Valentine’s Day Lips Stencil Card & Envelope
Happy Friday! Today I have a card and envelope to share with you. I used the Hot Lips stencil from Simon, plus Glitz Glitter Gels and the XL Love Greetings stamps and dies, to create a card. Then I used the same stencil and gold watercolors from Iuile Watercolors to decorate an envelope. I used Deco Pigment brush markers from Karin for Susan’s name and other details.
