MCT April Release Sneak Peek #1: Just a Note

It's Day 1 of the new My Creative Time 16th Edition Sneak Peeks and YOU are in for a treat! Be sure to stop by Emma's blog today to see ALL of the wonderful projects featuring TWO of the newest stamp sets: All Around Everything and All Around Everything Accessories.

Today, I'm featuring All Around Everything Accessories (available for purchase on Thursday). My card is a little 3x3 note card that I can add to my stash of sweet 'forget-me-not' cards that I hide for my husband when either one of us leave on a trip. After adhering my patterned paper to my card base, I colored the adorable little mailbox from this new set with my Copics and stamped it on the Stitched Circle Die which I mounted onto the Scallop Circle Die (both My Creative Time).

I made my own little envelope by cutting a piece of white card stock approx. 1" x 2" and scoring it on the long side at .5" and a little less than 1.5". Then I cut the corners off up to the score lines and folded. Voila!

I popped the envelope up on the card base and used my paper piercing tool to create a little 'path' for the envelope from the mailbox. The sentiment (Teeny Tag Greetings) was stamped onto the Teeny Tag Die and wrapped in Stampin' Up! Bakers Twine.
