Papertrey Ink: Special Delivery 2

This is my second post today.  

You can see my first card and envelope here. 

I started a card for the "Building Blocks Challenge" yesterday, but I could 

not make it work. Today I finished it with a few variations from the 

original requirements and then added the matching envelope to the mix!!

 I decided to use a vertical format for the envelope in order to 
match the the details on my card. If you're going to hand deliver 
a card, I think it's fun to use an unexpected packaging.

The Envelope

Paper: White Envelope; light grey paper (from my stash)

Inks: Pure Poppy, New Leaf, Enchanted Evening

Stamps:  

Polka Dot Basics, Distressed Stripes, 

Vegetable Garden, Garden Variety II, Mat Stack #3

(The tomato and the stripe were created by using a water colouring technique)

Card Front

As I mentioned earlier, this card was originally started after

 "rolling the dice" to determine the supplies I would need to 

use in the  Building Blocks Challenge (details here) 

I didn't enter the card as I ended up making a few changes!!

 

My list of supplies were to include:

Inks: Pure Poppy, New Leaf, Enchanted Evening

Neutral Colour: Soft Stone     

*Sketch: #5

*Occasion: Just Because   

Technique: Water colouring

Embellishment: adhesive pearls    

Fiber: Baker's Twine

*Changes Made: 

* I didn't use a band of card stock across the front image - 

I created a banner in Pure Poppy card stock and inserted it beneath the focal panels. 

*The sentiment was stamped onto a Tiny Tag and attached to the side of the focal image. 

*The occasion was changed to "a special day"; I will be able to use it for a birthday/celebration.

Stamps: 

Background Basics:Tin Types; Garden Variety II; Vegetable Garden; 

Tiny Tags II; Bitty Background Blocks; 

Dies: 

Garden Variety Frame II; Spiral Notebook Die;
