I made this several years ago - while pressed for time, really, which kind of explains why I maid an envelope-card (so that I could stuff the gift and note in one place). It was a birthday gift for a friend who adores the colour green - surely you can tell! :P
The envelope is handmade from stiff kraft paper, while the embellishments are mostly cut-outs from various places. The flower is from a patterned wrapping paper, the strip of rainbow colours cut off the description sheet of a pack of colourful construction paper (recycle whenever you can! Pretty things are everywhere), and the rest (the tag, the balloons) cut from scrap cardstock. I used thin silver wire (a very soft and pliable craft variety) and leather strip to put it all together.
The adorable little sheep sticker and the 'happy' sticker is from a sticker set I bought in Singapore - I got a whole bunch (about four big sets of stickers I think) for just a few Singapore dollars - bargains are everywhere you care to look. :)
Finally, I added little dots using emerald dimensional paint for interest.
Hope you enjoyed the card!
