MIM #124 & MFW

The Make It Monday Challenge this week is right up my alley ~ "Dress Up Your Envelopes".  I love to decorate my card's envelopes, it's sort of a preview of what the recipient is getting inside :)  My envies are not usually as elaborate as Melissa's ~ see her video HERE, mostly because I am mailing cards more than handing them out.  But, I can certainly take notes from her for the ones I do hand deliver!

I am also entering the Moxie Fab World's Mixy Matchy Challenge since it has some patterned paper that is just that :^)
You still have time to enter HERE  

I die cut the flowers and leaves out of plain paper as well as cardstock so I could use the "Masking Technique" on the envelope ... I didn't think the popped up flowers would make it through the mail :-(




PTI products used ~
Cardstock:  Stamper's Select White
Stamps/Dies:  Rosie Posie; Beautiful Butterflies

  4. So soft and pretty, Helen! I'm with you - a mailer, so need to keep them flat. This is a cute way to tie the envelopes to the card to create some anticipation.
