cliffs and butterflies



card no 3

to my aunt Ninna

reason It's her birthday

materials
card folded cardstock, stamps, white ink
envelope made from a page in a thrifted book called "Vårt vackra Europa" ("Our beautiful Europe")

Since the envelope was so colorful I decided to keep the card simple, just a few stamps and a white "grattis". I just love making envelopes from books and magazine pages and there will be many more like this. I think it's kind of a shame that cards are often so pretty, while envelopes tend to be white and boring - it's the first thing you see after all!
