Hi! It’s me again, Wendy Sue, sharing another little project with you! Making handmade cards is one of my favorite things – and I’m a big fan of simple cards. But sometimes I really want my simple cards to carry just a little bit more “punch!” I’ve found an easy way to do this is by creating coordinating envelopes. One of my favorite tricks is to create a plain envelope with a liner that coordinates with the card. Here’s a look at the set I created recently with the “Everyday” collection.
Even though these cards are simple, here’s a look at how I put them together. The first photo shows all of the pieces for the card – a base, a gold foiled base cover, a pink patterned paper, a 3×4 card, a beautiful gold clip, and a pink twine bow.
And after all of the pieces are layered, here’s the completed card:
The coordinating envelope is just as easy! The ingredients include a die-cut envelope, a liner, and a couple of die cuts.
Simply place the liner, assemble the envelope, and add the printed shapes:
That’s all there is to it:
And the set is perfectly lovely, don’t you think?
They were so easy to put together that I created a trio while I was making this one! Here’s the second set:
And the last set:
And finally, one last peek at the entire trio:
So, do you agree? Do the coordinating envelopes take the project up a notch??

Hi friends, Becki here, to share with you a set of Summer party invitations that I created. I used supplies from the Everyday collection and the Spring Fling collection. These Summer party invitations were SO easy to create. All it took to pull these together was a few scraps of patterned paper, Thickers, and a couple of die cuts.
I used Thickers for both of the sentiments on these cards. Thickers make card sentiments SO easy. On the first card I chose the “You’re invited” sentiment and one small die cut.
The gold foiled thickers from the Spring Fling collection are awesome! They coordinated with the gold foiling on the die cut perfectly.
On the second card I created, I combined two kinds of Thickers. Once again, I only used a couple of die cuts for embellishments.
You’ll notice that the “e” in lets is actually an upside down “3”. I love stretching my Thickers stash and making the letters/numbers work for my needs. I think my letter/number swap worked perfectly. I don’t think anyone (except you and me) will never know that I had to switch things up.
I can’t wait to send the cute invitations out for our next Summer party. Are you creating invitations for your Summer parties? I’d love to see what you’re creating. Thanks for stopping by the Pebbles blog today. I’ll see you again soon!

Hi! Renee here to share a BBQ Time! layout using the America the Beautiful collection. My favorite thing about summer is that I get to eat my favorite food…BBQ. YUM! My FIL got a new grill and invited the family over for a fantastic Father’s Day party. The food was grilled to perfection and we had a great time together. I created this layout with a couple of my favorite photos. You can see where I spent much of my time…right by the grill watching the grill master at work.
I gathered my supplies and even pulled in a couple of items from the Fun In The Sun collection.
I started my BBQ Time! layout by choosing the Patriotic Posies pattern paper for my background. I used the “BBQ Time!” journaling card from the Fun In The Sun Summer Days pattern paper…a perfect title for my layout. My photos measure 3″ x 4″ and 4″ x 6″.
Time to add layers under my photos and journaling card:
I centered all my layers and adhered them 1″ from the right edge of my background paper.
I added a blue striped Washi Tape Strip between my pattern paper layers.
I added a couple of flower Die-Cut Shapes along with hot dog and hamburger Die-Cut Shapes around my page. Too cute! And yummy.
I added watermelon and lemonade Stickers along with a Label Sticker stamped with the date of the party.
I added a flower Sticker…
…and splatters of Golden Color Mist for the final touches on my BBQ Time! layout.
Thanks for stopping by the Pebbles blog today! Hope you’re having a Happy Summer and enjoying some BBQ!
