Sue s retirement card and envelope




Only two Stampin' up products in this one. The water colour vine stampin' round wheel used with the preety in pink ink cartridge.
I used Cuttlebug's swiss dots embossing folder and embossed two peices of white card for the third layer and another piece for the fifth layer.
I used a circle punch to snip off the corners. Quick tip here...... if you want to layer and cut the corners as I have here... Cut your card to the required sizes.Then match up the two layers in one corner only and punch both layers together. Match up the other corners one at a time
and snip them off in the same way. When you have snipped off all the corners you can then stick your top layer in the centre and all four of your corners should be even.
( Just remember not to turn either piece of your card round )
For my greeting I printed it off and then hot foiled it in pink toner foil.
You could stamp your greeting and emboss it for a similar effect if you don't have equipment for hot foiling.
