Some retired SU! stuff found its way onto the card - the Pool Party glitter ribbon and the Fancy Frost sequins - along with my brand new goodies. I popped up the sentiment label on Dimensionals.
Here's the inside of the card - quickly and easily done with the help of the SU! Stamparatus!
Here's the envelope. I embossed the piece of Crumb Cake CS with the Needlepoint Elements design, adhered the piece of CS to the envelope flap and trimmed off the excess. Then I thought a contrasting Pool Party flower would look nice - yeah, this was definitely one of those "it seemed a good idea at the time" ideas! I embossed a Pool Party piece of CS and fussy cut the flower portion and nearly got to the end when I got too close to the holes and it acted like a perforation and I ended up with a very ragged edge. Having got the idea firmly in my head I stubbornly carried on - and the same thing happened a second time! The third time I fussy cut oh, so slowly and carefully and it turned out fine. I rather think I won't be doing that again though! I added a sequin to the flower centre and the card was finished.
