Card making is so simple with the Memories & More Card Packs and large specialty cards and envelopes. This is the first year I have purchased any of these type of products and I'm wondering why it took me so long. I guess I just didn't understand what they are really all about. Let me explain...they include 50 double-sided cards in two sizes with 25 designs, printed specialty papers and 4 sticker sheets. WOW, how easy to make your own designs! Here, I'll show you what I mean...
and the card base and envelope...well, here's how Stampin' Up! describes them...

Amazing, yes? So, here is what I did. I took one of the large cards and die cut the sentiment using one of our Stitched Nested Labels Dies. Then I took a large card and cut it down to 3 3/4 x 4 1/4" and adhered it inside the inner foil accent. I adhered the die cut sentiment with Dimensionals.
Taking a 3" length of Mossy Meadow Linen Thread from the Magnolia Lane Ribbon Combo Pack, I cinched a 4" length of Burlap Ribbon, with the ends cut at an angle, and secured it with a knot. Then I made a Billie/Mary bow and put a glue dot on the back. I used the ends from the knotted thread to tie it to the burlap. I used another glue dot to adhere the burlap to the sentiment.
The three metallic pearl embellishments finished off the card front.
For the inside, I took a piece of 4" x 6" Whisper White card stock and adhered one of the stickers along the bottom. Then I stamped the sentiments from Beautiful Bouquet in Mossy Meadow ink and adhered it to the card base with liquid glue.
Easy peasy folks! I must give credit to Sue Prather, one of my team members, for providing the inspiration!
Before I go, I would like to enter my card at Get Creative Challenge #83, a first time for me there.
