Thanks Dawn for posting this wonderful idea on your blog! I actually made two of these...just slightly different. One for me and one to include in a trade I just made. I hope she likes it! The only change I would make is to use the dot stamp on the yellow pieces. It would add a little interest I would think.
I got the okay from Dawn to put the dimensions here:
The DSP is 5 1/2 X 12 and then scored every 4". I licked and sealed 2 small notecard sized envelopes and cut at 3 1/2. The cardstock underneath is 5 x 3 3/4 and scored at 1". Don't totally adhesive down the envelope (as you can see in the picture). I just sticky taped the scored part of the cardstock to that end of the envelope. The cardstock inside is 3 1/2 x 3 1/2. The belly band on the outside is 1" x 9 1/2". You can tell by the picture how to put it all together.
Have fun with this! They really are easy and fun to make!

I must be a bonehead, these dimensions don't work for me! Gonna' try again, but mine end up with the CS that sleeves the envie having to be smaller than 5X3 3/4!
thanks for sharing the idea!

Yup! Sick of winter. Funny... when there was no snow during the Christmas break and most of January, I was wishing for it. Fickle! Anyway, this is way cool and the colors are so cheery!
