Make It Monday #100: How to Package Cards with Oversized Embellishments #2

This week over at Papertrey Ink, they are challenging us to create a solution for packaging oversized cards.  Here is the video Dawn McVey made with a few wonderful solutions:

 Here is the second card I made for this challenge:

I decided to make a mini card (2.8" x 3") that is quite thick with embellishments going off the sides.  I used a piece of Enchanted Evening cardstock for the base and stamped it with a houndstooth stamp in a Brilliance platinum ink.  Then I layered a banner using silver cardstock and a Happy Day die cut in Plum Pudding.  This was stamped with Studio Calico grid pattern background stamp and popped up again on foam dots.  A little jute twine and it is done!

The Pretty Peonies die cut is stamped with Hero Arts Studio Calico lattice background stamp - isn't it cute?  It also looks great heat embossed!

I usually tend to stamp a sentiment or some greeting but I stopped myself so I can use it for whatever I wish.

I made a vellum envelope and used a two way glue pen to adhere the corners and this worked well.  I will probably add some jute twine or baker's twine to decorate the outside of the envelope when handing it to the recipient.

I am also entering this in the Moxie Fab Itty Bitty card challenge.  Check out all the teeny cards they have over at Moxie Fab World.
