Today's post is about those kinds of projects I haven't shown you for a long time, because on the one hand I've made a card and a matching envelope, and on the other hand it's also a retirement card.
Esta vez he intentado darle un toque masculino porque era para uno de los antiguos compañeros de trabajo de mi madre. Por esa razón he usado tonos grises, verdes y azules. Como veis, he jugado con el papel troquelando las letras y la forma y luego creando el fondo del interior.

This time I've tried to give it a male touch because it was for one of my mother's former male coworkers. For that reason I've used grey, blue and grey tones. As you see, I've played with the paper cutting the letters, the shape and after that creating the background on the inside.
Para acabar, he añadido esa arpillera que le da textura y además crea contraste con las letras blancas. A continuación, empecé con el sobre. Cuando escogí el papel buscaba un diseño parecido pero diferente y con los mismos tonos y creo que acerté.

To finish, I've added that burlap that adds texture and it also creates contrast with the white letters. Then, I started the envelope. I was searching for a similar design but different and with the same tones and I think I was right.
Para decorarlo añadí esas estrellas y el washi tape. Un diseño sencillo y elegante y que por lo que sé le gustó mucho a su destinatario.

I added those stars and the washi tape. It's a simple and elegant design and for what I know he loved it.

Thank you Nikki. María, xx
EliminarThe envelope coordinated with the card so well (matching in colors but different in patterns/design)! One of my favorite element is the periodic table washi tape (I am a science lover)! The recipient will greatly appreciate this well-made card! XO Sam
ResponderEliminarThank you Sam. I bought that washi tape a long time ago, it was part of one of the Tim Holtz's collections and I also love it, it's very original and
Eliminarit has a different design. Hugs, María.
