Happy Lunar New Year!

To celebrate the new Lunar new year, I made some red envelopes for fun. It’s the year of the Ox, so all my red envelopes had an ox.

First, I used the Cricut Explorer to cut out the red envelopes. Then, I stamped the images with Gina K Designs Embossing Ink and heat embossed with Gold powder. I used Clearly Besotted Year of You and Gina K Designs Holiday Tapestry to make these red envelopes.

A closer view of the red envelopes.

The one with Gina K Designs Holiday Tapestry Stamp is below. I think if I want to remake this, I should make it on a longer red envelope, so I can see more of the design.

I really liked how these turned out, so I think I might be making more next year. They were easy and fun to make. I think I liked the first one the most. What about you?
