Vintage Mini Envelopes

Hello friends

I hope you are all enjoying the Easter break,
Spring cleaning is definitely in full swing here - I've been quite ruthless cleaning out
my kitchen cupboards - how on earth did I accumulate 6 frying pans!?

Back to craft...
This card appeared a few days ago on the Spellbinders blog here,
it features the new Mini Envelope Two die - available to pre-order on the website here.


There is also Mini Envelope One and Mini Envelope Three to tempt you!
On the Spellbinders blog there is a tutorial so you can see exactly how
easy it is to make these pretty little envelopes.
I also used Sentiments 5, Sprigs and Bitty Blossoms.
I wanted it to have a pretty vintage look and the Kaisercraft Rustic Harmony papers 
certainly helped.

Other news:

Charity Kits!
There wasn't one in March purely because I got completely side tracked by lots 
of work but plans are definitely underway for an April kit. 
I hope to have more details very soon.

Back to the Spring cleaning...

Take care friends.

  8. Good morning Christine,
    I love the card, and the paper is beautiful. Doesn't it make you feel good when the house has been cleaned and decluttered. I'm going through mine and collecting things that I can boot sale when the weather gets a bit warmer. Enjoy the rest of Easter.

  19. Hi Christine,
    This card is lovely, I love those three gorgeous flowers,
    The really brighten the whole card!
    The background paper is pretty too!
    Slow down Christine, I guess you may be a little hyperactive after all of the chocolate but don't exhaust yourself!
    I would love one of those cut out cleaners please!
    Love and hugs
