Thanks so much..

I made this today. I made some hot chocolate envelopes last week but I wanted to try something different so I was talking about it with Greg and he found this card on my Wild Card cartridge which I like a lot better. I put it on my design studio to make it wider and a bit taller. These are going to be for my dog walking clients. I always give them a gift at Easter and Christmas to thank them for their business. I cut this one out of red cardstock (it was a Bazzil cardstock called Ruby Slipper Red - perfect as my favourite poochie is called Ruby!). I covered the inside with a scrap of snowflake paper. For the front I used my new stamps set from Taylored Expressions called "Penguin Pals", they are so cute. I coloured in the image, used liquid applique on the hat and puffed it up with my heat gun and cut it out and put that on the front. I used a border strip across the front and stamped "Thanks snow much". I put in the hot chocolate sachet and Christmas tree lollypop. I then finished off with some red and green shiny ribbon to tie it together. I actually like this one better than the first pocket I made so this week I'll try and get the others made ready to give my dog's mum's and dads. Whilst at Michaels on Friday night I found some lovely Christmas mini tins so they will get filled with dog treats for the poochies and bundled up and given with the envelopes.
