Just a Note

Hi and welcome!  It's time for another sketch from the team at Freshly Made Sketches where our hostess this week is Judy Rozema.


I had so many ideas running through my head for the circular elements, but ending up going with envelopes.


I got an order from The Greetery a few weeks ago and hadn't taken the products out of the bag, so my mission was to use something from the order and this was it.  I combined The Greetery with MFT products to create my card.

The card base is 5" x 5" square and onto a white panel the same size, I die-cut the horizontal skinny stripes die.  Behind that I matted some patterned paper and adhered both layers to a white card base.

The big envelope was stamped and die-cut and I added an envelope liner using patterned paper.  I shaded the envelope with some C Copic markers to add dimension and popped in the note.  The other two envelopes were die-cut from the same paper pack using MFT dies.



Another simple card!  

Thanks for visiting.  Please check out the wonderful cards made by the design team.

Stay safe.
