Upcycled Mini Cards & Envelopes


A few months ago I borrowed my mom's Sizzix to play around with. I found a cute set of dies that cut mini envelopes and cards and wondered...what to use? Magazines, of course! I had all these colorful pages laying around, waiting to be made into a bowl...only I didn't feel quite like making a bowl. After a little manipulating and maneuvering, I figured out the best way to line up the pictures on the pages I like to actually be the focus of the envelope and card. My favorite set thus far is made up of various watches, designer ones at that, so they're pretty easy on the eyes! :) I think they're the perfect size to tuck into a gift, purse, lunchbox, locker...you name it! You can check out the sets in my shop:



And there will be more of these to come! What is your favorite item in my shop so far?
