. . . is the Stampin’ Up! Envelope Punch Board! Of course, if you simply can’t hold out until then, it’s available NOW! I used it to create the coordinating envelope for today’s card and it’s capable of making 66 different sizes.
At $19.95, it’s easy on the budget as well as a “must have” paper crafting tool.
Order the Envelope Punch Board in my on-line store HERE!
This week’s Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge (MOJO309) was my starting point.
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- I began with a 5 1/2 x 5″ card base. That’s all the information I needed to peek at the chart and let my Envelope Punch Board do it’s magic!
- I simply cut my Season of Style Designer Series Paper to 8 1/2″ square and punched/scored per the directions. It even offers a built-in Corner Rounder Punch at the top for the finishing touch.
- Isn’t the sentiment from Christmas Messages darling (see images at the end of this post)? It landed on my Top 10 Holiday Catalog Favorites List along with the Frosted Finished Embellishments and Season of Style Designer Series Paper (also used on today’s card)!
- That sweet ornament was created using the Christmas Collectibles stamp set and coordinating Christmas Ornament Punch. Buy them as a bundle and SAVE 15%. Wood-Mount Bundle or Clear-Mount Bundle.

Beautiful card and envelope! So elegant! Thanks for sharing!
Love these holiday papers and the bling on your ornament! Thanks for the magnetic platform update! I’m one of the backorders and have been growling with displeasure at having to wait so long! Maybe I’ll see it this week (crossing fingers and toes here)!
Love it!!
Darling use of the sketch. Love the papers.
Lovely Christmas card. I absolutely adore the embellishment in the bulb. Pretty!!! I so love how you angle your pieces. Refreshing! Thanks for sharing.
Gorgeous Christmas card and super fun envelope! You are so creative! And, tons of inspiration here on your blog, thank you!
Thanks Mary! I haven’t had any success getting an answer from the post office, though I’ll keep trying 🙂 so it’s good to know you’ve been successful in sending them. Can’t wait to start making my own envelopes. Thanks so much for the reply and for such a wonderful blog – I really look forward to it each morning! 🙂 Cindy
Love that envelope, Mary!
Hi Cindy: It’s best to check with the post office on what can or can’t be sent by mail. I have been sending cards in envelopes made of Designer Series Paper patterns for years without a problem. I use a white label for the recipient’s address along with my pre-printed return address label. It’s helpful to note that you can use card stock to make the envelopes as well if you prefer (or the post office requires) a cleaner canvas for processing. Hugs, Mary
ooh pretty ms Mary !!!
I too love my punch , it’s the best punch ever !!!
and I NEED ….. that stamp set !!
hugs frenchie ,
ps , I hope your fill a bit better !!!
Mary – these envelopes are absolutely gorgeous and I can’t wait to get a punch board for myself, but are they OK to put in the regular US mail??
Ooohhhh! I hope it’s soon available in the UK. Maybe Santa will bring me one!
