Alison Newby - Challenge 11

This is my first entry for the challenge, having only recently joined the New Designs Club.  In fact this is my first ever totally designed and hand made card!

This theme was perfect for me since they were new stamps, for a new hobby, using a new (for me) technique, in a new year and this card was sent to a young lady starting out on a challenging new journey of her own.  Well it seemed like a plan!

It's my niece's wedding next month so with that in mind, I thought this month's challenge would be very appropriate for a wedding card.  What better new beginning!

I usually make my cards on bought blanks which come with envelopes so the next bit was a new beginning for me.  I spent an afternoon trying out various ways to make an envelope that fitted my card.  It had to be a very thin box as I had used foam pads to fix the picture on.  After several tries I managed to make one that I was happy with.  I know there are gadgets that help you make envelopes but I don't have one.

Claire's mum, Aileen, has sent in this artwork for her daughter who is 11 years old.  She has made it with one stamp and one stencil which she received as a present for Christmas and they are the only Clarity products she has so far.
