I always look forward to making valentines. And my "go to's" are lace, ribbon and hearts. This year I went with a non-traditonal color scheme in the purple family and each card made use of an envelope punch board. When I first heard of these boards, I wasn't really interested in using it for making envelopes, though it is well designed and easy. When I discovered it could be used for file folder cards, boxes, bags, etc. I was suddenly very intrested.
The cards can be quite versatile as to where the tabs are placed, the card orientation, etc. I'll show some of the different things I came up with in the coming days. This was has tabs on the card front and back as well as the pull-out card. I covered the tabs with washi tape. The sides of the card are adhered to form a pocket and I embellished with a die cut heart and flowers, lace and ribbon.
Love it.
