A to Z Challenge – 2019 – C is for Castle

Posted on April 3, 2019 by scr4pl80

Hey there A to Z’ers!  “C” is for castle and today I have two castle cards to show you.

One is in the shape of a castle.  There is a little brad as a doorknob.  The inside shows a cute little princess and the cut out opens so you can write a secret message behind her.

When you stand it up, it kinda looks like a real castle doesn’t it?  
Lighting for special effects – LOL
The matching envelope has a lacy tape strip down the side.  There are some more pictures of this card on my Etsy site. 

The second one shows the castle in the background and a carriage on the front which holds the card closed.

You can still see the carriage on the inside.  

A crown adorns one corner of the message and the envelope has some purple sparkle tape on it and some paper that matches the inside.


I think any little girl would love to get a card like this, don’t you?  I even think there are a few older girls who might like it.  I know I like to be a princess on occasion.  Well, maybe queen instead of princess but queens can have glass slippers and ride in carriages can’t they?  Just ask Elizabeth!

Check my Etsy site for more pictures of this one too.  Thanks to everyone for their encouragement so far.  I really appreciate it.  Come back for “D” tomorrow.

    Janet,

    This is just beautiful! I would’ve loved to give my girls a card like this when there were small. I guess I can do it for my granddaughter when she’s a bit older.

    Your card is sweet. But you know when I see Castle I think of Nathan Fillion and where is he here? 😉

    Aw, my youngest was called a princess when she was growing up, she so would’ve loved that card! Very creative, and lovely touches you added to make them extra royal looking!

    Absolutely love that card! Great craftsmanship. By coincidence my daughter also
    creates cards and sells on Etsy! What did we do before it existed?
