Today is a multi-option challenge; it's all about envelopes so there are several ways to go.
There's full-blown envelope art. or simply make a coordinated envelope to go with your card. It's always an extra bonus when the envelope comes dressed up!
Or you could create something using an envelope - I'm linking the crimped envelope pocket card, and the bag-a-lope, for which I regularly buy a pack of full-size envelopes. They make great gift bags.

Then there are a couple of fun folds which create their own envelopes:

And there is also this:

And of course there are plenty of stamps with images of open envelopes with flowers or whatever else , and I know I have a couple of small envelope dies and even a very old HOTP plastic template.
So have fun whichever way you decide to go. Then upload your creation with the keyword
WT994, and then come back and share a link here - that makes it easy for people to find your card in case of keyword typos or gallery glitches.
Here's a link to our
WT994 It's All About the Envelope gallery
Here's a link to my sample:
