Hello-hello dear people,
Daria here. Hope your weekend has a good start, as I have a card for you to share in case you plan some time for crafting. This time, I've decided to play with Mail Background Stamp. It is quite versatile one. It could be both a focal point, or a nice background. You even may cut off small envelopes or your design.
I started with heat-embossing the background in white, then add some color using smushing technique and different distress inks.
When my panel was ready, I took my circle dies from Simon (that's a basic set, you may use any circle die sets you have on hand) and die cut a circle from it. I also made a bigger circle from silver glitter paper and more bigger one from light blue cardstock. I used our Over The Rainbow Assorted Cardstock Pack.
All these circles made a nice backing for the one with lots of envelopes. I also decided to use woodgrain embossed paper for the background. But you may skip this step. I glue everything with double-sided tape and foam tape.
xoxo,
D.
ps: I also made another background with the same Mail Background Stamp. It is picking on one of the photos. But, I still haven't decided how to finish it up. But I will try to show it next time.

To finish the card, I added three little envelopes made from different paper with Love Mail die set. A little banner from Skinny Strips die set and a tiny Hello nicely picks from the lower envelope. The sentiment is from Butterfly Beauties stamp. Two of three little envelopes are glued with foam squares. It gives more variation in dimension. I just love how cute these little die-cut envelopes.
That's it, hope you like it and may be will give a try.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time,

I love this card! The background colors are perfection & I love all the baby envelopes!
