Mini Card & Envelope

Hear is the second project we did Saturday. This may have been the biggest success. Most of the ladies made multiples. The scallop envelope die makes this such an easy project that it just take a few minutes to make a variety of envelopes. The card with its color coordinated envelope is great to put on gifts, in lunch boxes, on desks, etc. and give a loved one a special surprise.
Mini Card and Envelope Use the “Scallop Envelope Die” to cut a piece of Designer Series Paper. Fold the resulting piece of paper on the fold lines to form an envelope. Attach small pieces of sticky strip to the bottom of the side folds. Make sure that the tape does not cover an area that will not be covered by the bottom flap. Also, make sure that the tape does not pass the inside edges of the side flap. Fold up the bottom flap of the envelope so that it will adhere to the sticky strip. Set the envelope aside. Score a piece of 4 x3 Whisper White cardstock to form a card base measuring 3 x 2 . Stamp a focal image and sentiment onto the white card stock measuring 1 5/8 x 2 5/8. Use pencils, markers, or ink pads and blender pens to color the image. Center and attach white cardstock to colored cardstock measuring 1 7/8 x 2 7/8. Place matted focal image in an embossing folder and run it through the Big Shot as directed. Center and attached embossed rectangle to the front of the card base.
