Trendy Bakers Twine~Grad Gift Card Holder

Hello all!  Today is my day to share a project for the Trendy Twine blog.  May is here and with it, graduations.  The Trendy Twine colors of this month are Midnight and Stormy, which work perfectly with the graduation theme AND are on sale this month!

I am sharing a graduation notecard/gift card holder.  I started with the envelope.  Non-traditional, I know!  However, I knew I wanted to feature a fun tassel with Midnight Trendy Twine, and used that as a belly band of sorts around the envelope.  A bit of Totally Red Trendy Twine was also on the tassel to bring in the school color of the graduate.  I stamped a grad hat and "23" for the year in the bottom corner of the Kraft Small Envelope.

Now on to the card.  The Cranberry Bracket Card is a flat card, meaning it isn't folded.  I stamped the sentiment with VersaMark ink and heat embossed it with white powder then stamped the hats in VersaFine Clair Nocturne ink.  Both stamps were from the Unity Totally & Utterly Amazing (KOM 5/13) set.  I will hand write a short message on the back of the notecard.

Here you can see that the note card and a gift card will fit perfectly inside the Kraft Small Envelope.  Now all that is left to do is slip the tassel back on the envelope and give it to the graduate!

Here's what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:
