TWO PAPER DIVAS Design Team Card - The "Sentiment" is the star of the card!

Have you ever seen a Sentiment and know exactly who you want to send it to?  This Sentiment just spoke to me about my friend, Hope.  Words of  "encouragement" are so important at certain times of our lives.  TWO PAPER DIVAS has created collectively a wonderful set of stamps in their new November, 2015 set called "Everyday Sentiments #3" for just an occasion.  You will find something you need in your group of Sentiments from this set ...... if not ALL of them!!

I created this envelope on the front using my Stampin' Up Envelope Punch Board and the size I chose was the 2-1/2 x 3 to be able to fit the front of this 4-1/4 x 5-1/2 card.  Follow the directions on the Punch Board to complete this envelope.  Even though I made my card as a standard side opening so I could write on the inside of the base, I chose also to make a small, 2-1/2 x 2-3/4, piece to insert and could be pulled out after the twine was untied.  I also punched a heart from the scrap piece from making my envelope so I could place it as you see and eventually add a special couple of words!!!

Once I tied the twine, I used score tape to attach it to my card.  I think any other type of adhesive might pull apart with multiple openings by the recipient.
