wedding card for a friend

I was pleasantly surprised when a girlfriend of mine asked me to make her up a wedding card and when I gave it to her, she felt it was worth $20!  well needless to say, I didn't take her money, but it sure was nice to hear...   It came together very quickly with the exception of finding the perfect verse which took quite awhile to source on the internet (some would say I shouldn't be so fussy).  My other issue was that I had purchased a box of 5.5" x 9.5" envelopes not realizing there was some text on the bottom flaps. I tried covering the entire back of the envelope with pattern paper but that didn't look right.  Then I unglued the flap thinking I would just replace it somehow.  It was at that point I realized I could just cover the flap with white cardstock, cut around following the flap edges, re-glue it down and voila the text is gone!  Perseverance pays off!!!  scrap happy...
