Ok, now for my card:
I decided to make what I call a pocket card. I took a kraft colored envelope and sealed it, then used my circle cutter to cut on opening on one end to put this little insert I made. Here it is halfway pulled out:
I added a belly band around the envelope and stamped on it too. Tied the key on to go with the inside theme and that's about it! Here is a picture of the inside all by itself:
I really like how this turned out! And got a guy friend that this is going to, that I have known for about 35 years! :D
