Supplies and notes:
- You can see the DI's I used for this envelope above...
- That block is what I used to stamp. It was packaging from something, and I... I... I hoarded it. There. I said it. I kept a small piece of packaging. Truth be told, I will keep it still, and and and: I have another one.
- I actually added some Glossy Accents to the Studio G rain boots stamp. It is very subtle, but that is good... the post office won't freak out!
This project was inspired by the following two challenges:
Decorated envies are so fun! Fun tool you used to stamp with too~

Woot, woot! Love your creativity here and for taking me back to 1993! Can't remember if I was sporting Girbauds then, but just thinking of it made me smile. You go, girl!
