Spellbinders - Envelope of Wonder

Hello there.  Today’s post was suppose to publish yesterday, but between not feeling well and Blogger issues (it appears my Spellbinders posts are being flagged for review due to violating their guidelines… huh say what!? 🤷🏻‍♀️).  Anyway, I’m here today to share three cards featuring the Envelope of Wonder (EOW) collection released last month from Spellbinders (SB.  I used the Envelope of Wonder and Christmas Wonder die sets with the Sentiments of Wonder Sentiments for my cards.


Followed these simple instructions to form the envelope base.  Its finished size is slightly larger than a standard A2 size card and would fit nicely into an A6 (or A7) size envelope.  


The different pieces were die cut from colored and/or white cardstock, then put together according to the guides pictured below.  Copic Sketch markers and/or ink blending with dye inks were then used to add shading to them.



The envelope base was used for both Christmas cards.  


Here they are close-up.


For the birthday card, stretched the two side envelope flaps to create a floral bouquet wrap from cream woodgrain paper.  


The bow is the only piece from the Christmas Wonder die set. 


The background was embossed with the Leafy 3D embossing folder for dimension.


And that’s it for my trio of EOW cards.  SB products used for my cards are linked below.  Thank you for stopping by.

Great three Trina cards. I love the idea of envelopes filled with flowers that make up a card. Great idea and stunning execution.
