Punching Up New Cards

Have you tried out our new Envelope Punch Board yet? I love it!



To be honest with you, I've only used it to make one envelope. However, it's gotten lots of use making cards. Making cards, you say?

Glue DSP to front of card (Anywhere Glue Stick)
With the Envelope Punch Board, line left side of card front with left side of opening, punch. Line left side of card front with 3” mark and punch again. Flip card over and repeat for card back.
Use Paper Trimmer to cut from middle dimple down to remove excess piece.
Use corner rounder on Envelope Punch Board to round corners.

Stamp greeting in Cherry Cobbler on Whisper White cardstock. Attach to Early Espresso cardstock.
