I learned how to make this Double Circle Thinlits Card from fellow demonstrator France Martin -- thanks, Frenchie! It is a fun card to make, and to give! Lots of layers (you know how I love adding layers with Stampin' Dimensionals!) and I used my favorite Designer Series Paper, Gingham Garden, for the card and the custom envelope.
Here is the card closed:
And opened:
This card is larger than our Medium Envelopes, so I created a coordinating envelope with our fabulous Envelope Punch Board. This handy tool is perfect for creating envelopes, boxes, treat containers, and more! It is one of my favorite new tools, and I keep it right next to my Stampin' Trimmer and Simply Scored.

I hope you like this card! Be sure to stop back on Thursday evening for the RemARKable Stampers Pinworthy Blog Tour. The tour begins at 8 PM ET and our theme this month is Flowers. I can't wait to see what my teammates have created for you this month!
Happy, happy, joy, joy -- I have a new creative toy! I received my Envelope Punch Board (#133774, $19.95) last week, and I have been making envelopes like a crazy lady. (Those of you who have met me are smiling because you KNOW I am a crazy lady anyway!!) This great little gadget is so easy to use -- I had a chance to play with it this summer at the Stampin' Up! Convention, so when it became available for demonstrators to order, I jumped at the chance. You can make a variety of envelope sizes, and the handy-dandy chart on the board gives you the measurements you need.
I am so excited about this new Envelope Punch Board, and I am offering a special to everyone who orders it from me during the month of September. I will be designing a class using this new tool and you are invited to attend this class for FREE when you order the Envelope Punch Board through me as your Stampin' Up! demonstrator.
