Hi! This card and matching envelope were made for today's Ways to Use It Challenge: Envelope It. Participants were to use an envelope in some way for today's card! I decorated a matching envelope. (This will be hand delivered to Markie's Gifted Teacher along with a HUGE TUB of Bob's Peppermints, her favorite! I don't think I've every seen her without one in her mouth...Hmmmm....)
While I was making this card, Speedy the Cat kept on jumping up and grabbing the envelope. I went through 4 envelopes before I finally finished...All the rest have Speedy the Cat fang marks! LOL
The peppermint sticks were stamped two times onto watercolor paper in Real Red. I cut one stick from each image and outlined the sticks with a black marker. I layered them with foam tape.
The sentiment was stamped onto watercolor paper in Noir Black Palette Hybrid Ink and colored in with markers.
The snowflake is a GOLD charm that I pressed into a VersaMark Pad and embossed in Vanilla! I added K&Company Tigers Eyes to the center of the snowflakes.
The big snowflake is a Sizzix diecut and Martha Stewart punch.
The Mahogany strip was stamped in VersaMark and embossed in Vanilla.
