Memento Luxe to Create a Ribbon Gift Envelope

Gift cards, money or homemade coupons, this is a great way to give them to your special person. It also doubles as a cute storage envelope for all of their monetary gifts. This is fun to make and easy to change the gift theme.

The Set Up:

Cut 1x brown cardstock 7" x 8"
- score/fold along the long side at the 3" mark and the 6.5" mark.

score marks

Cut 1x white cardstock 6.75" x 7.75"
- before of after stamping cut the white cardstock into 1x each 6.75" x 3.25", 6.75" x 1.75" and 6.75" x 2.75"
Cut 2x white cardstock 1" x 2.75"

Using Memento Luxe Angel Pink, stamp circles randomly on cardstock.

Add Memento Luxe Rich Cocoa circles as well as randomly add small dots with a fantastix. Don't forget to stamp the small pieces too. When I first made this I only decided at the end, once assembled, to stamp 'eat cake' but adding it now would be much easier.

Adhere stamped rectangles to corresponding areas on brown cardstock. When adding the back piece, adhere a 25" (or longer) piece of ribbon under the rectangle as shown.

On a 4" x .5" piece of brown paper, stamp 'happy birthday' using Memento Luxe Wedding Dress. Trim edge into a 'v' and adhere to card.

Accordion fold the 2 white 1" x 3" pieces first in half and then fold in 1/2 again. Carefully adhere the ends to the inside of the envelope as shown. Take your time on this step, I found it easiest to adhere one side, let it dry and then adhere the other.
