This is the original card and envie that I made. I was playing with Star Prints and then I pulled out a couple of older sets that also have stars (Its a Celebration and Everyday Classics). The big sentiment is from Think Big Sentiments. I wanted a totally flat card for my set. Most people don't like to pay extra postage for big funky bows.
This is the packaging. I used a box that my stamps came in to hold the envies and cards. I wrapped it with a belly band made of Doodlebug patterned paper. I added a bow, a die cut star, and a handmade label (Just for You set).
Then last week's MIM came out and I thought this was the perfect card to "layer up". I wanted to do it three ways but alas I only got to two and even then I missed the MIM deadline. But here is what I have: Same basic layout with some of the stars stamped twice and popped up with foam. Then I got out some bling and went to town. Thats tiny star bling on the polkadot green star. So cute.
I love all your star stamping. And that color combo is beautiful. AND I love the box you packaged it all up in! Great set!

ReplyDeleteOh, these are wonderful! I love your packaging, too!
ReplyDeleteWonderful cards, Michele! I'm always looking for ways to make interesting cards but to make them flat for easy mailing. I really like the blues and greens together.
ReplyDeleteFab.u.lous! These are great! I, too, have trouble with one-layer cards. And of course, now I need Star Prints. Thanks for the inspiration!

ReplyDeleteI really like your single layer card set and matching envelopes,derbylea. The stars and the sentiment go so well together.
