New Envelope Punch Board now on sale
My favourite new tool is now available for purchase – the Envelope Punch Board!
I love how easy this makes making envelopes, boxes and more! It comes with instructions for 66 sizes of envelope in both inches & centimetres, it’s own scoring tool with handy storage spot and a reverse punch for rounding the corners. All in one board – yippeee!!!!
Envelope Punch Board
(133774) $31.95
I first got to see this at the US Convention back in July…where I took this photo of the fabulous display of just how many different types and sizes of envelopes it will help you make:
I got my hands on it to have a play just a couple of weeks ago. And now I can finally show you some of the things I’ve been making:
I discovered how to make crackers in all shapes and sizes – and I loved my wedding one so much I expanded on that theme and made some other co-ordinating proejcts too. The little boxes are sooooo easy and you don’t even need any measurements.
And of course, it makes Envelopes!!! The two Perfect Plum ones in the picture below show the biggest envelope it will make – and the smallest, which is just perfect for this iTunes gift card.
Note the lined one – I just used the next envelope size down and layered them together. Easy!
And the Strawberry Slush one is an envelope box – perfect for using with cards with lots of dimension on the front, or for a nice little set of gift cards.
Watch this video to see how easy it is to use:

More Washi Tape ideas
I’m still having fun playing with Washi Tape and thought I’d share a few more things I’ve tried out. First up are some fridge magnets:
I had some photo paper with a magnetic backing, designed to go in my printer, so I just stuck some strips of Washi tape on it and carefully cut around the edges. The result is strip magnets that are strong enough to hold single pages of paper on my fridge. It looks like I’ve used Washi to tape the paper up there but of course I can use just the one piece over and over again.
I wanted some magnets in colours that we don’t yet have in Washi Tape so I used the Tape It Stamp Set (given to me straight off the production line at the factory in Utah) to stamp directly onto the magnet paper in whatever colour I chose. And you just cut it out with paper snips. So simple!
Another great use for Washi Tape is to attach vellum:
This fantastic medium is notoriously difficult to adhere because you can see right through it. This & That Washi Tape to the rescue! Now my Joy To The World stamped sheet sits so nicely on top of my Pretty Print embossed background.
And finally, here’s one I was just having fun playing with to see how it went together. I used the Gingham Garden and This & That Washi Tape sets. I’m not entirely happy with the end result but I did love the discovery that you can stamp directly onto the Washi Tape surface!
Cheers

Home Office Make & Takes
Back in July when I visited the Home Office in Utah we got the chance to sit under the atrium and get creative. There were four Make & Take projects, with plenty of fantastic new ideas to keep us busy – and a bunch of free products for us to keep! I said back in August that I’d show you them so it’s about time I did.
All the projects featured one of the Hostess sets from the Holiday Catalouge:
Perfectly You Hostess Set
Wood (131874) $21
Clear (131877) $17
And all projects also made use of the new Whisper White Notecards & Envelopes in a variety of creative ways.
Whisper White Notecards & Envelopes
(131527) $9.95
Cards 12.7 x 8.9cm, Envelopes 13 x 9.2cm
20 of each
The first project I made was a little sleeve and four mini cards:
And here it is all closed up:
The next project was actually the first time I had a go with Washi Tape. And, as you can see, this one inspired one of the projects in my August class:
This is what it looks like all closed up:
The final project I made I actually had to finish off when I got home. I got the stamping and masking done but I hadn’t cut things out or assembled it.
My favourite thing about this project was the discovery that you can make the Basic Black/Very Vanilla papers in the Modern Medley pack match any project you like simply by sponging colour over the Vanilla sections. Brilliant!
Modern Medley DSP
(126926) $18.95
12″ x 12″. 2 sheets ea. of 6 double-sided designs.
And the fourth Make & Take I’m afraid I have no idea about. I think it was some sort of box but I didn’t even get anywhere near that table!

Frosted Finishes Jewellery
I just had to share how easy it is to turn our new Frosted Finishes embellishments into jewellery.
Making these earrings was as simple as using a pair of pliers to add a pair of hooks. And I’ve had comments on them every time I’ve worn them!
Who do you know who would love a pair of these in a handmade gift box for Christmas?
Frosted Finishes Embellishments
(132150) $11.95
12 pieces. 1.9cm
I promise you, photos do not do these little gems justice!
And with each one only costing about $1 and earring hooks easily available in craft shops for even less, you could churn out 6 pairs for under $15! Wow!
Send me some photos of your creations using these adorable little things!
Don’t forget you can get your hands on them in real life at my Winter Frost class this week!
