Fun Envelope Project

 
I have a fun project for you today. It's an envelope card.  Super simple and I bet you have a few envelopes either on hand or you could make one using your Simply Scored Tool.  
 
This particular envelope came from a file on my e-cutter.  It was more of an experiement than anything.  I had some Textured Crumb Cake that I stashed away and pull out for "special" projects and thought this project would be perfect.  
 

Once the actual envelope was created the decorating part was a piece of cake.  At first glance you might think this project is difficult.  Not at all. The great thing about being shabby is it has that messy look.  I like to call this weathered…. Any way you put it, I like it.

I started by adding layers of Designer Series Paper, lace, then more DSP.  You can see I have a few layers of Washi Tape too. I like the image stamped on the Label Framelit as it really pops up.  

 

The doily was sponged, then sponged more and then lightly coated with a shimmer mist.  The entire front is shimmered with two different types.  I love my shimmer paints and mists.  The last piece was the Bakers Twine on the arrow clip. I love these clips as they add so much character to a card.

Remember, not all buttons have to be threaded.  A naked button is totally okay.  You can see my "ink splatters" on the base of the card. I used Whisper White ink and my Splatter image from the March Paper Pumpkin.  I love this image.   It sits on my desk for easy access.  Kimberly Van Diepen, STampin' Up!

 

Overall, this project would be perfect to stuff a gift card inside the envelope with a sweet message or I think I could even stuff a few chocolates in it.  Hmm!
