Creating with Digital Paper

I love digital paper! It keeps you from hoarding! :) I love designing it as well. You can create so many craft projects. I made this wax-sealed envelope from my Ornate Lace paper in the shop. The flowers are from Altenew and I used black satin ribbon on the diagonal. It's stuffed with goodies! I splattered black paint on it. I love the dramatic look! Check it out in the shop and save 11% through April 30th using the code below! ... View the Post

Wax-Sealed Envelope

I had to make more! This Prima Marketing paper is perfect for the job. I used some packaging that I tore and inked. It gives a nice crinkly texture. I used and older Spellbinders Posy die set and die cut the flowers from sewing pattern design paper. Here is the back. There is just something I love about wax-sealing. Head to the shop to see if it's still for sale! Don't forget to use the code for 11% off in April! ... View the Post
