In a flurry of a hurry? This month the Dream Team are all about the Quick and Cute...whether that be cards, gifts, wrapping, or tags...we have sleigh-loads of ideas! Play along by posting your creations using the Inlinkz tool on the Dream It Up! blog, for a chance to win the stencil of your choice, and a possible bonus stencil for using Dreamweaver products in your Quick and Cute project! Here's what fun I've been up to this week:
Envelope Gift Card Holder |
Choose your envelope (this is an A2) |
Score it down the middle |
Fold it in half with the flap to the inside |
Open it up and cut away the flap on the right side only, following the fold lines |
Tape down the flap on the left side |
Add a ribbon to the outside of the envelope, I love using Beacon Adhesives Fabri-Tac |
Add decorative paper to the outside front |
Use a stencil, inks and brushes to add a to/from (LS64) |
Add decorative papers to the inside along with your to/from |
Insert your gift card in the "pocket" |
Tie it shut and put it in an envelope |
I keep a stash of left over images from past projects. When I need to make something in a hurry (as I almost always need to do!) I go through these first to save time. The crackled holly on the front of this (LL3005) was left over from a long ago project and now has a new use! |
I'd love to receive a comment from you before you head on to the rest of the "A" team:
Happy Creating,
Louise
