Here is my card for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge this week: http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/
We have all used Priscilla's Envelope Kit and I have to say I am a convert - loving it!! I have seen these used each week and have been in awe of the gorgeous creations and now it is MY TURN to play!
I have also used this image from Sunshine and Giggles, how sweet is she!?!? I have to say that I am not really a 'pink' person - I guess this comes from being the first girl on my Father's side of the family for something like 63 years - and yes....PINK, PINK, PINK!!! But I do have to say I love it with this image and went for a 'girly' look.
'The DP is embossed with the 'Victoria' Folder and sponged around the edges, the butterflies are also sponged and had small pearls added ,
I had a lot of fun creating the envelopes and was pleasantly surprised at how easy it is. Decorating them is the part that makes them unique and a gift in themselves. I love it that they can be individualised and unique! I have used the butterflies and some glitterly flowers on the front, along with a circle sentiment, some scalloped DP and the gingham ribbon.
I kept the back simplier and used the SU Scalloped Border Punch along with a flower and of course the ribbon. I am sure as the month progresses, I may get more adventurous! I was a bit 'skeered' with my first one! LOL! But needn't have been!
Just to finish it off I made a matching bookmark, as I had made a narrower card and made the bookmark as a filler - thanks Priscilla for the idea.....it makes it a lovely gift set - I can see more of these in the future!

Oh, so pretty! Love that cute image. Awesome butterflies and the spray of flowers on the envelope! What a wonderful gift set indeed! Love the dp with the embossing. Myself, I love pink best of all colors, and have forever and always!!!!! The pearls and glitter added to that make this a 'my kind' of card! Love the bookmark to match! Superb!!! Love everything. TFS. : )

Out of this world drop dead gorgeous Linda!! LOVE everything about the card, bookmark and envie. I really need to look into those envie's on Priscilla's blog as I need envies for the thicker cards and they do make a gift in and of themselves with the decorated envie. You should do pink more often, it's GORGEOUS especially when you give it that vintage feel!! TFS!!
