All Kinds of Crafty

Hello, and welcome to spring (a couple days late)! For those of you that live in the Northeast, I’m sure you are welcoming the warmer weather. We are still getting some cold days, but it is so nice to have sunny days and to be able to go outside without freezing!

Today, I am sharing a card that I learned how to make during an online class with Karen Ksenzakovic and Tara Carpenter.

When I first saw this card, I thought it was going to be hard to make but I was wrong. It was so much fun to put together. I used the Sweet Bugs bundle because those cute little bugs remind me of spring. I used the Cute as a Bug DSP with the dies for the front of the card. I love when Stampin’ Up! coordinates dies to work with images on the DSP!

The back of the card is where you write your note. I used more of the DSP on the bottom and stamped and colored the cute little flower on both sides.

On the front of the envelope, I added the cute little lady bug reading a book.

And on the back of the card, I added the same DSP. Don’t you just love getting mail with decorated envelopes? It makes me smile! 😀
