Tips & Tricks - Envelope Liners using the Envelope Punch Board

I love the envelope punch board and have spent a lot of time with it making boxes, bows, crackers, tags, shaped cards and yes even envelopes.  Even better I've now found on the web a way to line my envelopes.



First using the instructions included on the envelope punch board I made an envelope to fit a 10.5x14.8cm card, stopping before I stuck it all together.




Next I made a slightly smaller envelope to fit a 10.2x14cm card out of the Modern Medley Designer Series Paper that I'd chosen for my liner.


Because not all of the liner is visible I trimmed the smaller envelope as shown in the photo to avoid extra bulk when putting the envelope together.  Adhere the liner to the envelope as shown in the photo.


Complete your envelope and it looks like this.

Tips & Tricks - File Folder Card



This card could be landscape or portrait, it could have one side shorter than the other, it could be a journalling pocket or a gift card pocket.  Once you've got the basics below sorted I'm sure you'll find all sorts of ways to use this technique.

Start with a standard folded A5 card base.


Insert the corner of your card base into the punch board as shown & punch.  The edge should be up against the inside edge of the score guide.


Move the punched edge along to the 3" mark and punch again.


Align the punched edge in the paper trimmer as shown with the groove along the bottom of the punched shape.  Trim to remove the card to the top of the punched shape.

 
Flip your card and repeat on the opposite side.

Finish your card as you choose.
