Kreate-a-lope® {Product Review}

April 29, 2013 by Kimberly Jones

Kreate-a-lope® Review via weddings.craftgossip.com

Creating your own custom envelopes is a cinch with the Kreate-a-lope® envelope template!  Nick Romer, the creator of these handy templates, sent a couple of sizes for me to try out and review. I received the A2 standard invitation size and the A7 size template. You can check out the Kreate-a-lope® Video for all the details on how to use this product.

Kreate-a-lope® Paper for Envelopes via weddings.craftgossip.com

I gathered together some of my favorite papers so I would have a variety to experiment with including: light-weight scrapbook paper, handmade paper, a page from an old atlas, vintage sheet music, vintage dictionary paper, and a couple of discarded road maps.

 In the end, the vintage sheet music and the atlas page turned out to be my favorite envelopes! I’m especially smitten with the map envelopes. They would be ideal for a travel-themed wedding and could be customized to feature the couple’s home city or state, the wedding location, or even the honeymoon destination!

Etsy Spotlight: A Moo-velous Make for Highland Cow Lovers

Okay, confession time: I’ve always dreamed of having a Highland cow as a pet. There’s just something magical about their shaggy coats, sweet eyes, and gentle nature that makes them utterly irresistible. But since zoning laws (and my backyard) don’t quite allow for the real thing, I’ve found the next best option — this Highland Cow Sewing Pattern on Etsy.

This adorable PDF pattern lets you stitch up your very own fluffy Highland friend, complete with detailed photo instructions that guide you every step of the way. Whether you’re crafting it as a cuddly toy, a cozy décor piece, or a unique gift, this little cow brings all the charm without any of the farm chores.

It’s suitable for confident beginners and experienced sewists alike, and with the right fabric (faux fur, anyone?), you can really bring that signature Highland cow fluff to life. And yes, I’m already picturing a mini herd in festive scarves come Christmas!

At CraftGossip, we love supporting independent Etsy sellers who bring whimsy and heart into their handmade patterns—and this one is a standout. So if you’re like me and secretly dream of Highland cows roaming your living room, this might just be your next feel-good project.
