If you have been with me for some time then you will know how much I like to fill a charity box up with my cards, and take it to the shop for my chosen charity to sell them.
Last week I took them 200 cards, and I always have each card with an envelope and I put them into a cellophane bag to keep them clean.
From the look on the managers face I know she appreciates my efforts and this is my way of supporting them as they sell them for whatever price they want.
So my bargain find was in Lidl as I was doing some shopping, and there tucked away at the back of a shelf was this fabulous card and paper.
The card is 270gsm and has 25 sheets in it, and from each sheet I can make two cards.
The paper pack is 135gsm and and there are 50 sheets, two of each colour, making me two envelopes, to go with the cards.
It was inexpensive too so I bought two packs of each and took my lucky find home.
The video is not long but I share with you the dies I have used from other sets to decorate my designs.
The main one is the A6 Flat Fronted Envelope Die that is part of the A6 Collection introduced last month
Now I can make lots of cards with envelopes to match, and I could always make plain white envelopes for everyday use from a 100gsm copier paper. Another idea would be to add a wax seal to the back of each envelope made from another die set that is from Pretty Book collection.
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx
