DT post by Ally - dressing up a plain envelope

Hi everyone! This is Ally from Rock Paper Cricut, here with a cute packaging idea I came up with for those gift certificates you want to give. Most gift certificates fit in legal sized envelopes. I wanted to *dress* mine up a bit.

From a plain white envelope, to a cute little gift. I used the new *Lacy Banners* metal dies paired with the *Chunky Alphabet* by My Craft Spot for the banner. 

The cute little Santa owl is from the Winter Frolic Cricut cartridge on page 37 cut at 2.25". 

  

I stamped the *Merry* from the *Joy To The World* stamp set. I also added a traditional red twine bow at each end of my banner. These are so quick, cute, and easy to make!!!

Here are the envelopes I started with from Staples.

I hope you enjoyed this post and have a safe and wonderful holiday season.  If you have any questions--please stop by Rock Paper Cricut. ~Ally
