Today’s post takes an in-depth look at the Stampin’ Up! Envelope Dies, which are part of the Ornamental Envelopes Bundle, from the 2020 Mini Holiday Catalog.
I’ve had a few questions from customers on the various dies that are part of the Envelope Dies set. So here’s my take on how each die can step-up an envelope to the next level of pretty.
A. B. & C: These dies are made to pretty up the envelope flaps.
D: These dies are made to pretty up the insides of the envelopes.
Others: These dies are made to crop out the images from the Ornamental Envelopes Stamp Set.
A. Use this die on a Medium Envelope flap to add the branch-like design. Step-it-up by adding a coordinating liner (shown in D. below) of double-sided Designer Series Paper which can be seen through the die-cut.
You can see the details and coordinating “be merry” card featuring the envelope above by taking a look at my blog post here.
B. These two dies also add a decorative border to the envelope flaps, just a little more subtle. The envelopes shown here are Medium (left) and Notecard (right). The liners (shown in D. below) can also be used to add a peek of Designer Series Paper.
C. This die adds a bit of beauty to the edge of four different sized envelope flaps! The markers on the die itself help you line up the edge of each flap so that it cuts in just the right spot.
You can also use it to scallop the edge of Designer Series Paper that can be adhered to the flap for the perfect coordination of your creation.
Here are the sizes of Designer Series Paper needed for each envelope size, before you scallop the edge.
- 3×3 Envelope – 1 3/4 x 3 1/8
- Notecard Envelope – 2 1/8 x 5 1/8
- Medium Envelope – 2 1/2 x 5 3/4
- Large Memories & More Envelope – 2 1/2 x 6 1/2
D. These dies create a beautiful scalloped edge on a piece of Designer Series Paper that slips inside the envelope for a beautiful coordinating liner.
Here are the sizes of Designer Series Paper needed for each envelope size, before you scallop the edge.
- 3×3 Envelope – 2 1/2 x 4 1/4
- Notecard Envelope – 4 3/4 x 4 7/8
- Medium Envelope – 5 1/4 x 6
- Large Memories & More Envelope – 5 7/8 x 6
