Hi everyone! Thanksgiving is upon us and it's a great time of year to remind your special people how thankful you are for them. One of my favorite ways to do that is with a handmade card of course!
The new 'Hearth & Hollow' collection from Traci Reed Designs is now available and is full of fabulous Fall colors, sentiments and images which makes making cards super easy! I had already cut all of the sticker images as well as most of the journal cards and I had lots of scraps left from previous projects so all I had to do was layer and place my patterned papers and stickers on a card base.
This card features several patterns along with a journal card and a beautiful sentiment sticker! I placed a large flower bouquet sticker behind the sentiment and popped it up a bit and added more flower stickers on top along with tiny hearts.
The other card features a patterned paper background topped with a 4x6 journal card and a couple of colorful strips. I used a sentiment banner to cover the word on the card and then layered flower stickers under and around it to completely cover it. I added in more hearts as well as a few enamel dots!
Hi everyone! The new Traci Reed digital collection 'Hearth & Hollow' is now available! This collection is loaded with adorable images and patterns and I wanted to show them all off! A loaded envelope is the perfect way to do this!
I haven't made one of these in quite a while and I forgot how fun they are! The envelope and all of the surprises inside are made with this fabulous collection! Depending on the size of your envelope, you can fill them with so many goodies. This one measures 6" x 8" and has some gusseted pockets that could easily hold more than what I put in there!
These loaded envelopes make great gifts and I mounted mine on a piece of chipboard for extra stability. This way it can also be used as decor for the season! It looks so cute sitting on an easel!
I made some decorative paper clips, a couple of super cute tags that are ready to be tied on, a gift card holder (because who can't resist a little Starbucks!), a trio of notecards, a fun pinwheel and a sweet notebook that can be used as a travelers notebook or as a mini album!
Check out YouTube for lots of tutorials on how to make a loaded envelope. I hope this one gives you lots of crafty inspiration! Visit my YouTube channel or watch the video below for a walk through of this cute project!
