Papertrey Ink: April Blog Hop


This month's challenge for the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop was to use one of the lovely Timeless Templates by Lauren Meader as our project base.

If you are new to the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop, you can read all about it here.

I chose the "All Boxed Up" template to work with since I love to send cards as gifts, this template is perfect for sending some matching cards and envelopes as a gift to someone special.

FRONT:


BACK:

INSIDE:


My envelope closure details:


The closure is held using some BasicGrey magnetic discs embedded inside the envelope/card holder and the flower decoration.

Supplies: stamps: Papertrey Ink (Friends Til the End, Journaling Lines); patterned paper: Papertrey Ink (2008 Itty Bitty Dot Basics); cardstock: Bazzill, Prism; ink, jute: Stampin' Up!; tools: Fiskars edge punches, Spellbinder's Nestabilities; ribbon: Micheal's; button, magnetic snaps: BasicGrey.

I hope you are enjoying the PTI Blog Hop. Have a great evening!
