Instructions

On the long side score the basic grey card stock at 4 1/8" and fold and burnish to make a card base.

Add the blushing bride and dsp layers to the card front leaving equal borders all around them.

Stamp the snail on a scrap of basic white and colour in the image then stamp the sentiment just above his eyes.

Die cut this image with the postage stamp die and also die cut the letter to go inside the envelope and the envelope from the grey card stock.

Make up the mini envelope by folding on all the score lines and secure the flaps with a glue dot leaving the flap open. Stamp the heart on the little letter and add to the inside of the envelope with a glue dot.

Adhere the image at an angle on the card front and then add the envelope too.

Stamp the mushroom image on the remaining white card and colour in with the blends and then adhere to the inside of the card.

These snails make really cute cards for any age, why don't you give it a try.

Please hop over and see what my crafty colleagues have made, you are sure to be inspired, I always am.
