We made 2 projects, both using the
new Stampin’ Up! “Envelope Punch Board” {#133774 $38.95}.
Project 1 was a Tabbed File Folder
Card, featuring the Chalk Talk stamp set and matching Framelits, side note if you
purchase this as a set, you save 15%!!!
Project 2 is a Tabbed Gift Card
Holder, which is Christmas themed, and can be adapted to any occasion.
Tabbed File Folder Card
Fold cardstock in half, Use Punch Board and line up corner of the blade, Punch and also Punch at 3”, cut off excess with Stampin’ Trimmer, flip and repeat on reverse side.
The front of the card has the “Shop
Around” wheel roller in Basic Grey, rolled/stamped twice, and the Chalk Talk
stamp is on the front to convey the special message.
Stamp the large Bread Tag stamp twice
in White Staz On on black cardstock, I then cut the word “something” out with
my Paper Snips. It is then layered with Dimensionals over the original word ”something”,
use the matching Chalk Talk Framelits to cut the Tag, and then the Tag is also
Dimensionaled on the card.
I used 2 different Washi Tapes on
the 2 Tabs it make it look like two different Files, the pink on the front of
the card, and the black pattered Washi Tape on the entire length of the inside
card and then also on the Tab.
The Insert of the card is stamped
with the words “I’m so grateful there’s you in the world” from the Chalk Talk
stamp set, and a flower from “Flower Shop” is heat embossed with Iridescent ice

Talk”, and “Shop Around” Wheel

Tabbed Gift Card Holder
To make the Snowflake, I used the Rock
N Roll technique on the Vellum, and whilst the ink was still wet, dipped it in
to the Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder, and heat set is with the Heat Tool.
Then layered it with 3 pieces of
cardstock {punched with the Blossom punch} that has been put through the Crimper
8 times to distress the cardstock.
Once distressed, I then pulled the
cardstock apart gently to create 6 Blossoms.
I added a Rhinestone Basic Jewel to
a Candy Dot Brad Base to create the centre of the Snowflake.
