Another Envelope Wrap

I really liked the Make It Monday envelope challenge over at PTI so I decided to make another one. Today is my fifth anniversary so I made a card with envelope wrap for my husband using Love Potion. This set is so cute!

Envelope Wraps

This week the Make It Monday #163 challenge for PTI is to make a wrap for your envelope.

 

I needed to make a baby card this week for a friend and thought I would participate in the challenge. I made the card and envelope last night and already gave it to my friend. I think I turned out pretty cute! I am going to make envelope wraps again.  Easy and it really adds to the card.

I was up way past bedtime making this so I went pretty simple. By the time I was finished my desk was a mess so my pictures are not very good.  I just placed the card and envelope on a piece of paper on top of my mess! For the envelope wrap I used a Half and Half die with Melon Berry card stock, Polka Dot Parade #4 and Boutique Borders Baby. I used Chocolate ink although it looks black in the photo.

For the card, I CASE'd a card that Betsy Veldman made last year.

 

I didn't have most of the supplies she used so I had to improvise. The lampshade is made with the little dress from the Hanging Out dies and the base is the spoon from Comfort Food. The books are Building Blocks which I cut down a little bit. I used Simple Alphabet for the lettering on the spine. Baby's name is going to be June! 

I used an old embossing folder for the shelf, a striped background stamp for the bottom half and Wonderful Words Baby.
