The fun folks at Fancy Pants are blog hopping with us this week! They provided the collection called “It’s the little things” for us to work with, and I can’t begin to tell you how much I love all the patterns in it!
Life has been crazy busy lately, but I never run out of the need for cards, so I’m sharing 2 quick and easy cards today, made from Fancy Pants and SCRAPBOOK ADHESIVES AND 3L™ products.
Both cards use Keepsake Envelopes, for the first one I positioned the smallest Keepsake Envelope, which is about 2 x 2”, over part of a pattern of hearts. It has adhesive on the back side, which allowed me to create a background inside the envelope. I trimmed the ticket, added the Live Laugh Love rub-on. I cut off the envelope flap then trimmed a small piece of that to cover the adhesive on the front of the envelope, to make it a pocket instead of a closed envelope.
The Glitter Cuts flower border is adhered with MyStik™ Permanent Fine adhesive and the papers are adhered MyStik Permanent Strips. The Keepsake Envelope had Thin 3D Foam Squares to give it a little lift, which also makes the ticket have more lift off the card.
For the second card I cut a square of patterned paper to fit inside the Keepsake Envelope, then added the birdcage rub on, then sealed the Keepsake Envelope. I used a border sticker, more patterned paper and the rest of the rub on for the bird cage, as well as the phrase to complete this card.
These are the supplies I used:
SCRAPBOOK ADHESIVES BY 3L: Keepsake Envelopes, MyStik Permanent Strips, MyStik Permanent Fine, Thin 3D Foam Squares Black
Fancy Pants Designs: It’s the Little Things Collection Glitter Cuts, Element Stickers, Rub-ons, and patterned papers Feathered, Four Birds, ITLT Strips, Headed South, Shuffle
WorldWin Papers: Kraft Cardstock
Thanks!
