Thank you for introducing us to Mary Nohl! I loved reading about her amazing life and her unique art! This image was the inspiration for my card: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/122019471132255721/
This card was a first for me...I always make A2 sized cards, but this stamp is square, so I ventured into new territory. That necessitated another first - learning to make my own envelope. I found a YouTube tutorial and made the envelope from a brown paper grocery bag. I stamped the image on the front and will add a label for the address. The envelope isn't the only recycled element. The pineapple charm and raffia came from a pillar candle I bought recently. So, Mahalo also to Jean for this great challenge!

I can see how your stamped images would fit in perfectly with the inspiration piece...it's a great look and the charm pulls it all together. Good for you stepping out of your usual norm and going with a square easel card. I love the envelope out of paper bag...terrific!

What a fantastic easel card...and matching envelope. The pineapple charm is cute and guess well with the stamp. I loved all those walls with the relief images, and an glad someone chose to be inspired by them.
