Many of us who make handmade cards also make the envelopes for the cards. I really hate the thought of the envelope just being tossed or thrown away after it is opened because it took time for me to make it. Personally when I receive a card I save the envelope so that I can recycle it later. I thought it would be fun to put the focus on the envelope and make it a keepsake!
Inside the decorative envelope is a card with a printed message with room for the giver(s) to sign at the bottom. I used a lot of the techniques I love: stamping, stitching, inking, distressing and layering. I also love that I was able to incorporate a scripture from the bible and encouraging messages on the envelope flap and the signature card. I believe baptism is the most important step a person can take in their lives so I was very happy to make a unique card for the special occasion!
