Here is another Envelope Punch Board card......

I made a Rose card at Cathy's workshop last week & 
liked the fold of it so well that I made another one.

So-
Here is another card I made with the Envelope Punch Board.
 For this card I used the SAB set- 'See Ya Later' 
with the 'Create a Cupcake' set & coordinating Cupcake Builder Punch.
Isn't it just so cute!

This is one of my February class cards- 
so if you are stamping with me this week this will be one of the cards you'll get to make!
I should call this the one sheet wonder card- as with these measurements 
you use almost one entire sheet of Chocolate Chip card stock.

 I've had many people ask me how I did it!
Well- it wasn't a planned creation.....
and I'm not very good at being able to take & post pictures of things.....
but I'm going to give it a try.
 Base of card- 6 7/8 x 6 7/8- punch at 3 3/8".
 Cut off 2 of the flaps & it will look like this.
NOTE:  
You will be adding an inside base piece as shown below that is 5 1/2 x 4 1/8", 
over the top of this- so be sure to check the size firs
& cut off the 2 tabs that are larger-
as this is not a true square base.
You want your finished card to be 5 1/2 x 4 1/4".
 Inside base piece= 5 1/2 x 4 1/8"
 This piece measures= 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 & punch on the Envelope Punch Board at 3 3/8".
You will flip this square & punch 4 times in order to punch off the square points,
making them a little rounded at the edges as shown here.
(These will be the layered pieces that goes on the front tabs.)
 I then folded this in half & cut it on the fold mark- making 2 pieces.
Here are your 2 separate pieces.
 Then attach them as shown to the front tabs.
Also notice where I added the 2 dimensionals, 
as the tags will be attached to the card front here.
 Notice the attachment of the tags as shown from the back side.
 You can then slide the bottom tab as shown here to secure your card to stay shut!
This is it opened completely up.

We have another snow storm headed our way!
(Oh the joys of living in Iowa!)
It is going to be a long next 24-48 hours.
We have to sell 2 semi loads of hogs tonight- so praying we an get the trucks in & 
out & they get to the packing house safely.
Deke is suppose to be in Mt. Pleasant all day today for a meeting, 
but don't know if he is going to risk going because of the weather.
There is no way he can get stranded & not make it home to do all of the chores, etc.

I did take Drake to see Dr. Mary yesterday.
He had strep throat & got some meds, so hopefully will be better soon.

I hope you have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!
Be sure to stay warm & safe!
Happy Stamping!
HUGS!
