Default Small Envelope Template...How do you..........

How do you mark your cardstock when you use these? Do you use a pen or pencil, or an emossing stylus, or what?
I need to make 40, and am hoping somebody has a tip for doing it efficiently.

Thanks a bunch,
Alicia

I bought this and have never used it.
Well, I used my uplines when I first signed up but I have done so many things since then that I forgot. So I'm interested in knowing that too. I simply can't remember what I used.

I have always used an embossing stylus, usually try to lay the template in a corner of the cardstock, then drew around it with a pencil, so I could cut it straight on my cutter, on the straight edges, and embossed all the folds. Works great, but interested to see what others say as well.

Default I like the stylus too

When you use the stylus there are no marks and the folds are scored already. Anyone had any interesting uses for the template. I used it to hold a tag on a scrapbook page. Anyone tried using vellum? I was wondering how it cut or if it was jagged

I used it on vellum with a pencil...never thought to use my embossing stylus with it...I will try that next time.

The vellum worked out just fine. It was easy to cut and fold as regular paper...not a problem. I LOVE little envelopes and tags. I hope that you all give it a try (those of you that haven't used theirs yet) and love it as much as I love mine...

I will try the stylus soon....

I tried vellum. That's the only one I have tried. I bet that I used a pencil but I don't really remember.

It's the only card I have uploaded so far. Bad picture. Made this at my uplines when I first signed up, for my set sampler.

I love this template. I use my stylus to mark the lines, as someone else pointed out, then the scores are already scored. Here is my vellum envelope card:

Have fun!

I just ordered this and am waiting for it to come. Thanks for all the tips. I'd love to see some other samples using this. Edee
