Mini Card Sets


Today is my last day of school! I'm so happy summer is here, although I am sad to be losing the best class ever. I also was lucky to have two wonderful room moms this year, and to show my appreciation, I made them little sets of 3" cards and envelopes.


My inspiration for these came from my friend Linda Kaiser, who made cute sets using her Imagine. I decided to use some of my new Papertrey Ink stamps for mine.


The envelopes are cut at 3" from the Walk in My Garden cartridge, using patterned paper (not cardstock).


I used the same purse Linda used for her project. It's from Forever Young, cut at "Fit to Page." It fits the cards perfectly!


Recipe:

Recollections "All Girl" Paper Stack
"Mega Mixed Messages," "Wildflower Garden," & "Botanical Silhouettes" Stamp Sets
Dark Chocolate, Ripe Avocado, Orange Zest, Pure Poppy, Summer Sunrise, Hawaiian Shores, & Chai Ink

    Katie,
    First how sweet to give credit to Linda (she is another amazing crafter) but I LOVE that idea too! I would never had thought those envelopes were from Walk In The Garden! The whole idea is just amazing along with the cards and purse! I bet the Mom's were completely blown away by their gifts! As always LOVE it!
