Envelope Box

Good morning, today is Catch the Bug's Monday Anything But a Card day and I made a box to hold all the paper to make envelopes.

I collect cards for Send A Smile 4 Kids Canada and a lot of the time people donate their time to make the card and I make the envelope for it. I covered a good sturdy box with hand made paper that I got for a steal and then printed Bugaboo's Happy Birthday Envelope

out for the front.

I made a smaller version for the side and added the sentiment envelope paper

 I've already made close to 2000 envelopes!

Gone Fishing

Good morning! Today Doodle Pantry is sponsoring Incy Wincy Designs and their challenge is to use a Faux Technique on your project. I took whisper white paper and dragged a light, med and then dark brown over it to create "lines" and then embossed it with a wood folder. I cut strips approx. 1.5cm wide, cut 45 degree angles on the ends and then put mini brads on each end. I printed Gone Fishing cut it out and was done. I think the window frame turned out fantastic!

Little Green Bug

Good morning! Today is a new month which means a new release from Doodle Pantry. I'm trying to do more CAS cards and I really like how this one turned out. I used the outline from Doodle Pantry's Classic Bug & Gas Can, coloured and cut out the car and then used a thin wire for the antenna. I crimped the "road" on an angle and added the sentiment.

Check out Doodle Pantry's new release (they are on sale from today until June 4, 25% off no coupon needed!), there are lots of stamps for Father's Day! A new challenge begins at noon today however there's one change.

Ducky Duck

Good morning, today Doodle Pantry is sponsoring Just Inspirational Challenge and the photos for inspiration are gorgeous!

and

I used the colours from both photos and Doodle Pantry's Ducky Duck from the top photo to create my card. I cut off their feet so it would look like they're swimming.

I made this card for a special friend who as of 8am this morning went into surgery...a 17hour surgery! He has a great sense of humour so after he comes out of intensive care we'll take this up for him. 

Hop on over to Just Inspirational and give the challenge a try. If you use a Doodle Pantry image you can enter Doodle Pantry Digital Challenge #23 you have until May 24th. Just for entering you receive a scuba sheep and ant for free!
