Loaded Envelope Swap- Snail Mail

I'm so excited to share my first Loaded Envelope!! I made this for my swap group and have sent it to the "Crafter of the Month" in my group and am hoping she really likes it!

Since it was the first loaded envelope most of us had made I set the guidelines at an A2 envelope and 10 items. I made friends with my envelope punch board and made my own envelope and then just had a blast filling it up. I didn't really count my items as I didn't have a partner for the swap but sent this to the crafter of the month.

I have a video showing everything that you can find HERE!!

I have a feeling you'll  be seeing lots more of these loaded envelopes as I just had the best time with this!!

You've Been On My Mind

My friend, Kristie issued a sketch challenge in her latest newsletter. I'm playing along with that today. I really liked her sketch but it really made my mind work overtime. LOL! which is good as sometimes we need a little challenge, right?

I originally was going to color the butterflies but when I laid them out to get the placement figured out I really liked the whole black and white theme so I decided to leave them uncolored. 

I have to say, for a card that challenged me and I wasn't sure about, I really do like how it came out. Yup, challenges are good!

Have a super day!
