Medallion





























I was in the process of throwing this CD envelope in the trash when I thought hmmm, I can use this for a card! Just like any other envelope but with a cool bonus window. For the super simple Medallion card I stamped it in Soft Suede on Whisper White, matted with Bermuda Bay and an Ice rhinestone brad. Couldn't help but add some piercing to the edges. I know you must have an old CD sleeve around the house and can give this a try!
