Really quick and simple card - made a similar one in orange and yellow with the flip flops, but I've mailed that now. I used this unconventional (!) color combination because I only have a few markers!

This is great. I love that the dimentions are different than the standard 4.25" x 5.5" What dimentions did you use for this card? I'd like to do the same lay out!!!!

I just took a normal half sheet of cardstock and scored it lengthways instead of the traditional way - then I chopped the top off so it would fit the cool envelopes! Remember (like I didn't once before making loads of thank you cards) to buy your envelopes first!!!

Thanks for sharing those measurements. I'll have to rethink my card shapes now! You've done a great job with the red and the lavender. I wouldn't have thought those two colours go together but they do and look great!
------------------------------ Cardstock and ribbons and eyelets and brads
Stamp sets and Copics and bright-coloured pads
UPS packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favourite things
This is a great card. Very unique layout. I know that you found enevelopes in the UK, but do you have any suggestions for here in the US? What are totally cool envelopes? What the usualy measurements of your finished card.
Thanks for helping and sharing.
