I've looked for it at JoAnn's, Michael's and Hobby Lobby in my area (Naperville, IL) with no success. Does anyone out there in SCS-land have this punch or has anyone seen it in their area?
I googled it and it shows several places to get them. One place listed is Kmart. I didn't know they had scrapbook supplies. If you don't mind paying shipping, it listed Amazon. Good luck.
Kelli~I know I have seen this at my local ACM and/or Michael's. I will check next time I am there. Does your M"s carry it at all -maybe they are currently out of stock?
*****I just double checked my punch. I have the McGill mini envelope, not the Marvy. Below is a link to the McGill.
I have the McGill, too, and have had it for ages. For me, it's a bear to punch with. Is the Marvy a Clever Lever? I don't use mine much because I don't want to hurt myself trying, LOL. I do like the card Julie made. I might have to haul it out and try it again.
I found my Marvy punch at a LSS. I know this shop owner is a little pricey but I figured adding tax & shipping would make this punch the same price and I would have it immediately. Mine is a tiny rectangle envelope. There was a tiny square envelope punch also.
It is the same type of punch as the regular Marvy punches except the bottom isn't open so you can't see to place the image.
I had seen the McGill punch at Michael's awhile back but wasn't looking for this shape at the time. I have checked 2 Michael's and 2 JoAnn's in my area and no one had it.

Thanks for sharing Julie's adorable card. She really has a great style all her own. Good luck finding the punch.

Thanks for the replies, everyone! I really want the Marvy; as I think that's a clever lever punch and would be easier to use. I have three big box LSS's in my area and no one had this particular punch.
I'd prefer to find someone who can pick it up with a coupon in their area and ship it off to me. I searched all over my area for a Martha embossed hot chocolate punch and lucked out; someone here bought and shipped it to me.
If you wanted to head west, you could check out the Hobby Lobby, Michael's and Joann's on Randall Road in Batavia/Geneva. I know have seen this punch at one of those stores, although it may have been a while ago. If make the rounds this weekend, I will check for you.
I don't get to the Batavia/Randall Rd area much often; I was thinking about trying to find it at the newer Mike's in Oswego, but I haven't had a chance to get there yet. I've been lucky to find one or two people here on Splitcoast who have been able to pick up a punch that's hard to find near me (with a coupoon of course) and send it to me.
If anyone also has this punch, I'd be willing to send a $ or two for a few punch outs on kraft cardstock and mailed to me.
We have the McGill tiny envelope punch with rounded corners -- the neat thing about this one is when you fold it twice, you get a heart with a pocket. And when you fold all four flaps under each other, you can get a sweet little petal box. Those uses make it even more versatile than the envelope punch with the pointed flaps.
We also have the McGill punch that makes a tiny library pocket -- soooo cute with a tiny tag or message in the pocket! Both are on sale at BonniesBest.com.
