Think About Color Thursday - Pocket Card with Matching Lined Envelope ............... Kraft Brown, Baja Blue, Chocolate Chip, Whisper White

This week's Tuesday Tip was about how to line an envelope to match a card. The first thing I did for this card was to set aside matching designer paper to make the lined envelope. See my post about it for instructions & you will be amazed at how beautiful your envelopes can look. By the way, as always, if my instructions are unclear or if you just need help or have a question about any posts, please email me at lahinks@gmail.com. I am glad to assist.

So, today's Think About Color Thursday color combination is:


Kraft Brown

Baja Blue

Chocolate Chip

Whisper White.


Other supplies you will need for this card:
  • Parisian Breeze designer series paper (if you want some, email me before the end of the month while it is on sale :) - in May when you buy 3 pkgs of designer series paper or textured 12 x 12 cardstock, you get to choose a 4th package FOR FREE!
  • scalloped oval punch

We learned how to make this card at this month's Stamp Camp. The card stock is kraft brown. Card closure is a magnet set hidden underneath the designer paper. The front message is punched with the scalloped oval punch & adhered with dimensionals.

I also paper pierced along the top edge of the top flap.

The pocket is made by scoring the card stock to create 3 panels, folding along the score lines, then applying adhesive along the side edges of the bottom section. Fold & press to create the pocket & flap.
