Happy Mail - Valentines

* Valentines Day Happy Mail *

Yes, this posting is late, but I did send out this Happy Mail before Valentine's Day and the recipients have gotten it, so no spoilers here.

I found some wrapping that is as thick as cardstock and wrapped my flip card in it. The Valentines card I slipped behind the ribbon wrapped around the card on the backside. I used a diecut doily for the main element on the banner. I made pockets and envelopes for the inside of the card and put ATCs and goodies in them. I also made a scalloped shaker for fun. Fo the ATCs, I printed the backgrounds and sentiments on glossy paper then decorated with stamps, Modge Podge Dimensional Magic, diecuts, and stickles.

Have a lovely day!

Card - Smile for Coffee Friends

I made a set of 6 of these cards to give to friends. I only had 4 gold doilies so for 2 of the cards I painted a white doily, layered a die-cut heart doily over it, and then put the eyelet circle with the coffee element over that. I like the way the cards came out and hope the recipients like them.

Have a lovely day!
