Special envelopes to match some special cards

Earlier today shared two cards made using the
Daisy Elements digital set from the Beccy's Place Store. 
.... when I say "digital set", it's two little words for a "MEGA digital set"
filled with digital stamps (to colour and pre-coloured), digital sentiments,
digital papers and card toppers too!


How could I resist making some special envelopes for them,
when the digital set includes coordinating patterned papers?


I designed my special envelopes in Silhouette Studio, combining the Daisy Elements Paper 4 from the Daisy Elements digital stamp set from the Beccy's Place store with the 5.5" Square Envelope with Liner cut file from My Scrap Chick.

My cards are 1/2" square and I like to have a little wriggle room, so I enlarged the envelope cut file from the original 8.472" square to 9" square.  I took the liner panel and enlarged the pretty patterned paper to be slightly larger, sent it to print on white textured cardstock and cut with my Silhouette Cameo, along with the white envelopes.  I burnished all the folds, adhered the liners in place then adhered the flaps to form the envelopes ... so pretty!


Here's how they look with the cards made from the same digital stamp set.



   

   

There's plenty of room inside, even with several layers foam dots.
