Card/Photo Carrier

Hello and welcome to 
Kristie Kreates.

Today I'm showing you a card/photo carrier that I made

for my sweet Aunt Marilyn.

Aunt Marilyn lives in North Carolina and I haven't been able to 

see her due to COVID.
I hope this will cheer her up and give her some smiles.

I wrote a letter to put into it and enclosed some pictures of

our family.  She has never met my daughter in law or granddaughter,

so I thought some pictures would be very welcome.

I stamped the

Penny Black Timeless Stamp

 onto white card stock with 

VersaFine Onyx Black ink

then colored it with colored pencils.

The "card" itself is made from 2 envelopes.

The flap of one envelope was glued into the other envelope,

then the outside was covered with  the green paper

and the flower image was adhered on top.

I chose some colorful paper from my handmade background stash for the

inside.  Here you can see where the envelopes open in the center to put 

the pictures inside.

I'm sure that Aunt Marilyn will keep this right next to her chair and look 

at the pictures often.  I know they will make her smile.

Thanks for stopping by today,

I hope you have been inspired in some way.

Come again soon,

until then:
Make something pretty for someone.
