Stamping
For all those who do not like to color, this set uses the two step stamping process, which makes coloring the images easy.

  • Stamp floral bunch outline with Calypso Coral ink up the left edge of the exterior Basic White mat
  • Stamp the same floral bunch image using Calypso Coral ink centered on the bottom of the interior Basic White mat.
  • Stamp the floral bunch filler stamp with Lemon Lolly and fill all stamped floral bunches.
  • Stamp 3 large outline flowers on Lemon Lolly scrap.
  • Stamp the exterior sentiment from the Sentimental Park Stamp Set on Lemon Lolly scrap with Calypso Coral. (Make sure your Lemon Lolly scrap is large enough to die cut the label using the smallest sentiment label die with sentiment appearing along the bottom.)
  • Stamp the interior sentiment from the Charming Sentiments Stamp Set in Calypso Coral ink.

Die Cut

  • Position and secure the coordinating die to the 3 large flowers. Run through SCEM.
  • Position the smallest label die so the sentiment runs along the bottom.
  • Secure the non-floral edge label die to a piece of Lemon Lime Twist scrap. Run through SCEM.
  • Slip the front of the card base into the Fern 3D EF. Rung through SCEM.

Build the Inside

  • Adhere interior mat to card base.

Don't forget to decorate the envelope!

The envelope is the where the excitement of receiving
snail mail begins.

I simply decorated this envelop by I adding a critter die cut in the front lower left corner of the envelop and a piece of the Umbrella DSP on the flap.

Other ways to decorate an envelope include:

  • Dry emboss the envelope flap.
  • Stamped the envelope flap, front lower left corner, or across the bottom.
  • Adhere DSP along the front left edge and/or across the bottom.
  • Die Cut a label out of DSP large enough to adhere a mailing label of the addressee on it and still see the design of the DSP peaking out around the edges of the mailing label.
