Hi again! Here's the card I mentioned in the previous post. I just made it simple. I hope you like it.
I made the envelope using a page of patterned paper. I thought I still had those long white envelopes in my stash, but when I rummaged through the trays, I couldn't find any. I just had to make one from scratch.
This is a tall card that folds on the side. I usually have a struggle in making masculine cards and I didn't know what to make for Boss Kiko. He is one extraordinary cool guy. That I know, but it's hard to think of a design befitting his personality. It should be simple as Donna and I have agreed upon. I don't have much supplies for masculine cards, but I have lots of black and white paper! Ha! And there's my set of owl clear stamps. So I set off thinking of making a card along with these supplies and this is how it turned out. I love the owl and the triangles in the background! What do you think of it? I hope you'll say it's really pretty or it's awesome. Heh.
I stamped the owl onto the card base and stamped another one on a cardstock. I cut the image out and adhered it over the stamped image on the card with a chipboard at the back to add dimension. I took one of the printed sentiments from my stash and affixed it onto the card as well. I also added crystals to complete the set.
I made one huge mistake on this card. I adhered a length of cotton tape on the inside of the card to hold the messages, but the cardstock would not fit onto the cotton tape. I tried to loosen it a bit, but the left part ripped off. Oops.
This was one of the easy and fast cards to make. I had fun making it. I just can't get enough of the paper pads I bought recently. They are just too pretty! I hope I find more of them the next time I go to Wellmanson's.
Thanks for stopping by! Have a great week!

I adhered patterned paper on the inside of the card. The paper is from the paper pad that I bought from Wellmanson's when Donna and I went there last month (or was it last June?).
