I have made another envelope, which I finished yesterday. I used some lovely paper from the Brenda Walton "Brookfield" range, and some lovely glittery butterfly border and corner stickers. I added the recipients name with Galaxy markers. For the Insert I also used some lovely 3d butterfly stickers, and then used my own design sunflower stamp, in 2 sizes, which I coloured with Aquatone sticks, and decoupaged.
Have been crafting again, and have made an envelope using the lovely blue awning papers and embellishments. I have added a print of one of my paintings, and some of my little painted flowers and some flat backed gems.
At last! I have made my final envelope for the birthday books challenge on Craftswap Forum :) This is the envelope for the pets team, I have used a lovely sheet of paper from Flair designs to make the envelope, and have decorated it with one of my own design cat stamps, which I have coloured in with Aquatone sticks. The envelope is fastened with two animal print brads and a length of fibre.
I made the insert and decorated it using some lovely papers and adhesive ribbons. I stamped a larger version of my cat stamp, again coloured it with aquatone sticks, cut it out and attached it to the front of the insert. I wrote the verse on the back, using a copper Galaxy marker, which I drew a shadow round with a black pen.
