A simple little card...

...made using 2 of the patterned papers that were in Monday's post.
I used the grey outline dot paper (and coloured some of the dots with these copic markers: R-35, RV-29, RV-13, R-00, W-3, Y-02, YG-00. Next time I might use pencil crayons instead, since it was tricky to stay in the lines.
The {happy day!} sentiment is
I stuck the white & clear sticker on black cardstock and
framed it with itty-bitty flowers from a Fiskar's scallop flower punch:

Here's the inside of the card (A2 size)
& the envelope:

(The striped paper is the blue raspberry in the random subtle stripe below & the coloured pattern strips are just cut off the cover of this Crate Paper Paper Heart 6x6 pack).
And here are those 3 paper sets:

These are high resolution PNGs (at 350dpi)
They measure 12 and a half inches square,
but they print nicely on standard sized paper too.

Funny thing is these subtle papers may not look like much at first, but
surprise surprise, they're the ones I ended up wanting to use the very most.
And perhaps the biggest perk? They use hardly any printer ink!
