I started with a large envelope and created a brown card to fit inside. I dug through my white core cardstock and found this similarly sized off cuts. I embossed them with different embossing folders and then sanded their edges and middle to reveal the embossed design and them texture. I adhered them to my card which left a gap perfectly sized for another scrap I had in my little stash. I did not emboss the green one and trimmed it just a little longer. I mounted red strip which was punched with the ribbon border punch from Stampin Up before mounting the green strip. Thinking it needed a bit of something I stamped it with a script stamp (SU) in a dark ink which helped to unify the design. I added two serendipity hearts punched with the SU heart punch over the green strip and then added three little brown rhinestones. I found a coordinating greeting and mounted it just below the hearts. Therese
