Use Memento ink to stamp the greeting from the Positive Thoughts stamp set onto the 2 3/4″ x 2 1/2″ piece of Whisper White cardstock. Crop with the small intricate die from the Ornate Frames dies. Attach to card front with dimensionals. Place one small Gilded Gem onto the greeting. See photo for placement.

 

Inside:

Use Memento ink to stamp the sentiment from the Peaceful Moments stamp set onto the remaining piece of Whisper White cardstock.

Use snail to layer the remaining Designer Paper strip onto the strip of Mint Macaron cardstock, then snail this to the top of the stamped piece. Adhere to the remaining piece of Daffodil Delight cardstock. Adhere the completed piece to the inside of the card.

 

 

Envelope:

Use Memento ink to stamp the single daisy image from the Ornate Style stamp set onto the lower left corner of the envelope.

Color the flower petals with Light Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends marker and the flower center with the Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends marker. Color the leaf with the Light and Dark Old Olive Stampin’ Blends markers. Color the stem with the Dark Old Olive Stampin’ Blends marker.

Make the envelope extra special by decorating the flap with Designer Paper. Use snail to adhere the 6″ piece of Designer Paper to the flap of the envelope.
