A PLACE TO START - ANYTHING GOES - ENVELOPE POCKET CARD

 Hello, Crafty Makers!

The February challenge theme at A Place to Start is

Anything Goes w/ Optional Theme:

Small Creatures!

-----

I opted to create a project for the Anything Goes portion of the challenge. 

My schedule was crazy around Christmas, and I had to reschedule my infusion appointment.  Because of that, I was unable to give my infusion nurses their usual gifts. I thought it would be too weird to deliver Christmas presents in February, so I decided these little envelope pocket cards would be more appropriate.

I did not have cardstock in the pink color I wanted, so I used Ranger's Picked Raspberry and Vintage Photo Distress Inks to create the color combination I wanted! I used Lost Shadown Distress Ink to color my stencil.

 I used Vintage Photo Distress Ink to color my white buttons.

I used waxed thread for the stitched edge.

I had these heart flower dies in my stash. They seemed perfect for this project.

I used my Vertical Lines Die to create the faux corrugated cardboard look on my hearts!

I think the envelope pocket card is a great way to present gift cards or cash.  I decided to give cash this year.  I also included a soap saver, a bar of rock soap, and a small journal and pen in the gift basket!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope to add the project sheet for this project sometime this week.  You can also find the tutorial on my YouTube channel, "Chana, Coffee & Crafts!"
