Make a Card & Matching Envelope with 6″ x 6″ DSP

You are going to LOVE what I’m about to show you. I’m going to show you how to make a card with a great layout and decorate an envelope to match it using a 6″ x 6″ piece of your favorite paper! I like to think of this as a little One Sheet Wonder. LOL.

For my demonstration, I’m featuring the Delicate Dreams Designer Series Paper and a sentiment from the Scalloped Blooms Stamp Set.

Shout out to Stamping with Kristen whose project inspired me. I saw her project on a social media post and knew instantly I wanted to CASE it and share it with you too. I’m so grateful to our crafting community that we can share our creativity with one another so that we can all learn and grow in our craft.
