LINING THE ENVELOPE TO MATCH

One day after not having made any cards for awhile, I decided I really needed to pull out some of the lovely designer papers that I have and actually USE them.  I decided a great way to do that was to choose a card to make and then line the envelope with the matching paper.  Below you will see four of the many cards that I made that day.  The die I used for the card is from Papertrey Ink.  Thank you for coming by!

These are just so lovely Vicki. I have never lined an envelope thanks again for the inspiration.

Vicki, I keep copies of most of your cards to use as inspiration. I love your talent! On this specific card, I'd love to CASE it - but need the die. I looked for a papertreyink die, but couldn't find one. Could you be more specific about the die name? Is it an older one or a new one? Thanks for your help, Elyse

Lining the envelopes with the matching paper makes a great card even better. It really adds a beautiful finishing touch. I've also looked for the die from papertrayink but wasn't able to find a match. I did, however, find a die from Gina Marie Designs called Flower Background Die and I was wondering if this is the die you used. I just recently found your site and I absolutely love your cards and your style. I have bookmarked your page so I can see all your wonderful creations. Thanks for sharing them.

I found the Papertray Ink die - it's called Mighty Bloom Die. Please delete my previous comment. I didn't see it on their website searching through all the dies but I saw your beautiful cards from April 16, 2015 and you mentioned the die name. Once I searched their website with the specific name it comes up and is still available. I'm adding it to my shopping list. You made so many gorgeous cards with this die.

Aren't these birds cute?  I've had the stamp set for a while and just hadn't inked it up.  The littlest bird was cut out and pop...
