Oh, how I looooove circles! I was so giddy when I first saw these new stamp sets by RC. They are called Round About and Round About Additions. They were designed to work with the new Envie Wrap AND all those circles work with the Circles 'n Scallops confetti cuts for a perfect circle everytime!
For my first project today, I wanted to show you the traditional use of the Envie Wrap, on an envelope. I first stamped this one with some of the solid circle images from Round About stamp set to create a Bokah effect in the background. I tucked in a few sequins to pretty it up.
I then cut the pretty Envie Wrap from some vanilla cardstock and two sizes of the circles from Circles 'n Scallops. I stamped them with the Round About stamp set. I made the smaller one a cute little tag by punching a small hole and adding a twiney bow.
It will be so fun to create coordinating envelopes with this new die, to tuck into gift bags or packages. It's the extra little touches like this that make gift giving even more fun!
Speaking of coordinating gifties.....I did a card and matching envelope for a baby gift for one of my besties. She had a boy and I finally found the perfect gift to send AND now I have the cutest card and envelope to go with it.
The Envie Wrap is fantastic for envelopes, but it also works great on many other projects, cards included. I cut the largest circle from Circles 'n Scallops and stamped my favorite Lots To Say Sentiments. I added a small stamped heart from I Like You.
I also cut four small circles with Circles 'n Scallops, three from pattern paper and stamped the heart one from Round About Additions. Here is a close up of the details. I added some enamel dots, a Double Scalloped Border and a twine bow. So Sweet!
The envelope just makes me smile. It's pretty straigh forward. I cut the Envie Wrap from pattern paper, stamped the "special delivery" Round About Additions and added the kraft lines from Round About Additions, too.
Take another look at all the RC products I used on today's projects.
There is still lots to see. Off you go to Susan Lile's Blog. I KNOW she's got something fantastic up her sleeve to share. She always does. Happy release day!
