This week is another rerun week for the Way's to Use it Challenge. This week the challenge is to use envelopes in your work. There has been a request for ideas for the 5 in 1 envelope maker so you get "extra points";) for using that if you have one. Feel free to share any hints or tips you may have on this thread.
Here is the link to the past envelope challenge if you wish to take a peak...
As always, please remember to put WT67 in your keyword section. Please separate your keywords with commas if you wish to put mulitple keywords in. Post a link back here as well so that we can all view your work. This is not a contest or race, just a way to stretch your creativity and inspire. There is no time or posting limit so make as many as you wish.
Have a great day and I wish you all a safe and happy Canada Day and Fourth of July,
Me too! I haven't done a challenge in a week! And my 5 in 1 envelope maker has been sitting here never used for 4 months!!! Today is the first day with everyone home from school and we are trying to do strawberries and get ready for company for the long weekend. What are the odds?:(
Location: In my Happy Place with no one bothering me....I hope!

Oh....darn it!! I just remembered my friend has my envelope templates........
Maybe I can just decorate a regular one?
I will get them from her later today!
I did this card for a graduation last month, using an envelope. But I'll do something else for this challenge when I get home from work. I have lots of mini-envelopes from Hollo's!
Thanks for a great challenge Julia. I have that 5-in-1 template and have never used it. Hope I can play and get challenged into learning how to use the template.
Julia,
Off to find some envys............can't wait to try this. Thanks for the challenge.

I bought the 5-in-1 envelope template and have NEVER used it. I'm going to give it a try for this challenge. Will get busy when I get home from work tonight. Thanks, Julia, for spurring me on!
I usually ignore the envelope. I NEED this challenge. I have invitations to make for DS's birthday. Matching envies would be so cool! Thanks for the kick in the pants! :p

Me too! hehe. Thanks for the reminder! I was briefly stumped for a moment there. Thanks Julia, for the challenge. I'll definitely be stamping outside my "zone" today!
I so need to do a challenge, haven't done one all week...BUT, I just got my catties in the mail today! So, I think I might be otherwise engaged Have fun gals!

Well, either I"ll have to do this super quick or later as I get to see an official copy of the the new catty at 10 am today! This might be a great challenge...we should ALL have envies!
Great challenge Julia! I hope I get to play. I'm going to the hospital this morning to have injections in my neck...OUCH! They are putting me under for this proceedure. I'm supposed to take it easy for 24 hours. I hope I don't really have to do that. :( I'll be checking in to see everyone's work later on and I still hope to get to play.
What a perfect challenge! I was just thinking that I needed to start decorating my envies to match the cards. I don't have the template so I'll have to stick w/my existing. Or.....this would be a great reason to buy the mini envelope punch I've been wanting....hmmmm...
Here are a couple of envelopes I used in projects. I hope this qualifies for the challenge. I've used envelopes to make gift card holders which is a great idea that I got from this site. The first two are made from using regular #10 envelopes and the third is the large greeting card envelope (5-3/4" x 8-3/4")
Here's a gift card holder made with a large greeting card envelope which I also learned from another SCS member. These might still be pending as I had to re-upload them to my gallery because I previously deleted them.

Good morning everyone! Bummer, have way to much to do today so I am posting one I had in my gallery, maybe Ill get to do one tonight or over the weekend. Thanks for looking!!
This was a fun challenge. I have always wanted to make one of these envelope books and now I have. I inserted a few of my favorite stamped sentiments. It was hard to add this to a certain gallery since I used so many stamps from differents sets. This was fun...and more time consuming than I realized but it was fun.

Well - back to fence making, may not ahve time to play today, but trust me - I will try!! Anyone have the new envie punch from Marvy? I don't so I will be using my mini envelope template, if I can get one done!
