Default TLC156-Envelope Pouch 2-18-08

Hi! I’m today’s Guest Hostess for the Technique Lovers Challenge: Envelope Pouch. Thanks so much Beth for asking me to host.

This pouch was demonstrated at Anaheim, CA Regionals last month. I fell in love with it so much! I hope you do too. I have posted the tutorial on my blog.

My Pouch

TLC156 Gallery


1. Seal your envelope.


2. Use your large tag punch and punch like shown. Stick the envelope all the way through the punch so it wont go up the envelope any more. The right side of the tag should be barely off the envelope.

3. Re-insert the punch and line it up so it just cuts off the extra bottom.

4. Flip your envelope over and do steps 2-3.

5. Snip off the outer triangle on both sides.

6. Decorate

You can view the tutorial here, too.

When you upload, please put TLC156 in the keyword section when you upload, and then post a link to your card here in this thread.

If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us STAMPIN' !!

Is this just a standard card-sized envelope?

Hi! Okay....Amanda, (or BRAT as I call her...) you KNEW I didn't have ANY candy in my house, didn't you? I spent 3 HOURS driving around JACKSONVILLE looking for a 24 hour WalMart, Target, Walgreens or CVS that had the mini Peppermint Patties...Did you know that NONE of them had them???? I ended up driving to St. Augustine, an hour's drive-one way! to get candy for my pouch...GEESH! LOL! (I'm a bit tired now, since my adventure started over 4 HOURS ago!!!! LOL!)

Here's today's submission...I'm going to bed!LOL!:
