One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

Make It Monday #100: How to Package Cards with Oversized Embellishments ~ Card 3

 First for the packaging...I was in Seattle in November and went to a store called "Impress" and I spotted these bags...they were striped...Kraft with not quite white...maybe more like a vintage white...so I used that for my inspiration for the card.  I used the stamp set from Heart 2 Heart # 11 and stamped the LOVE and also the "sending you lots of" on the kraft line.  For my card, I used Kraft paper and stamped the white lines with vintage cream.  In hind sight, I should have used vintage cream paper and stamped the stripes with kraft...oh well...then I added the same sentiments repeated on the bag.
The sentiment on the face of the card is from Stitched Sentiments along with the die for that set.
