As you can probably guess, I had so much fun with this weeks sketch and with this sweet Precious Moments image. I loved using the pretty Spring colors, and trying to match the dp with the image. I even made a smaller image for the matching envelope!
As the envelopes are such a great size I decided to make an easel card and use this pretty pink rose which is quite thick, but there was no problem easily fitting this card into the envelope.
The inside of the card I decorated with coordinating dp and placed a tag card inside the pocket for writing your sentiments with ease. I duplicated the ribbon effect and added the little Thank you sentiment and popped up a butterfly for added dimension.
I have made my own 6X6 envelopes before but must admit when it came to folding them I had a few issues, I could never get them truly square. Now that I have Priscilla's envelope kit it all went much more smoothly and actually took me a lot less time!

Charolotte, your easel card is just wonderful. I especially love the way you made the pocket with the tag, very creative. Papers and colors are so springlike, it's so refreshing. Your darling little girl image and the rainbow and bucket of gold, so cute. Your envelope turned out fabulous. I am so loving the envelopes to go with my raised cards. So happy everything turned out with your little one. I can hear the relief in your writing.
