Pretty Cased Gifts


Last week, Faith has a very cute tutorial on her site for this cute note pad. I modified it a bit, no stamping, for a friend who owns a bed and breakfast. I replaced the stamped image with a matted photograph. The Clip is from Staples (they have some really cool clips!). I picked up the cork board at the Dollar Tree, 2 sheets for $1 so it would make 4 note pads. The note pads I made are a big longer than Faith's at about 8". I have also seen these cork boards at Michaels', although I suspect they are more expensive!

The note cards and holder are another case of Dannie's design. To match the note pad, instead of stamping I added a photograph.


Also, (and this is so cool and EASY!!!) I lined the envelopes! Yes, it is very very very easy! I am running late this morning, but I will try to put together a quick tutorial on how to do it. Now that I know how, I will be doing this all the time!

Oh, please do give a tutorial on lining envelopes! I've been considering doing that for our DIY wedding invites.
