Surprise Every Single Day

Can you believe I’ve posted two days in a row? That hasn’t happened in quite a while. Goes to show you, there’s a surprise every single day!Yesterday I mentioned how much I’m in love with the Painted with Love Specialty Designer Series Paper. Since you rarely see the same papers used two posts in a row on this website, this project is proof positive.

Today, I’m participating in Kylie Bertucci’s International Blog Highlights. The holidays have kept me away for a month or two so it’s time to get back to it. More on how to vote at the end of this post. Now, back to the project..

When deciding on the purchase of new Framelit or die it’s always good to figure out if it can be used for more than the obvious. That’s the case with the Lots to Love Box Framelit Dies, or in this case, the Sure Do Love You Bundle (clear mount for me).

Inspiration for the envelope came from a picture on page 25 of the 2018 Occasions Catalog. The photo shows a small gold foil envelope. In a quest to discover how they created it, I took a long, hard look at the box die. It’s not exact but it’s pretty darn close.

Closing the envelope without adhesive can be tricky. In this case a belly band does the trick. Just slide it up and tuck in the flap.

Now, time to vote. If you like my project and think I’ve earned one of your five votes please click the following link. Follow the instructions and you’re done. Thank you so much!
