Its over two years since my last post, during which I have had a bereavement and a change of circumstances. I hope to be fully back here now and filling the blog with more posts on all aspects of how to be green, crafty and more. Nobody in the UK can say that we haven't had a phenomenal spring and summer with very warm weather even in March, something which is very rare. It is still June but I keep thinking that we have had the summer already; hopefully we have much more of it to come. Flamingos are very in right now so here is a card that features them:
How is this card green? Because it consists of just a sheet of card and if you omit the optional paper tole pieces as I have here no glue or foam squares are required. I used to use a lot of the latter but they are not biodegradable. Now I am more into finding ways of making cards 3D without them, like this one. It folds obligingly flat (Operation Pancake again) and fits into the envelope supplied with the kit and will only cost you letter rate.
Also included with the kit are several banners saying Happy Birthday, Happy Retirement and Bon Voyage plus three blanks, three gift tags, four envelope seals and a sheet of patterned paper for whatever you like. Print it onto a thin paper and cut a 6" x 6" square from it and make an origami model to enclose with your card. There are some simple instructions too and the whole can be bought here
