Default We R Memories Giftbag & Candy Punch board

Hi ... can anyone help me with sizes for the gift bags and candy boxes for the two boards. I have been searching the web and you tube but I can not find out dimensions of the largest gift bag the gift bag board will make. I want to see if it will make bags for wine. Or is there a size that will hold a gift card? Thanks

Also, if you know if the Candy punch board will hold a gift card? Thanks

I was able to find a listing for the candy box board that stated the boxes were 1-1/2" in width. The only dimension that varies is the length.

If that 1-1/2" side is correct, or if each side is just a smidge bigger, a gift card would fit in the box at a diagonal - you'd have a 1-1/2" square box and the gift card would fit corner to corner.

I'm thinking the sides are just a hair over 1-1/2", since you start with a 7" piece of cardstock and after scoring you have 4 sides plus an overlap for gluing. Hopefully someone who actually has the board can come on and verify.

I can tell you that a gift card will fit quite nicely in the pillow box made with the pillow box board. That's another one where you can vary only the length of the box, not the girth.

I wonder when we will start seeing these in local stores? I don't care for the candy box, but I think I would love to have the others. Already using the envelope punch board a lot!

Kathy, my Hobby Lobby had the envie punch, the gift box punch, and the bag punch in stock last week. You could use a coupon on them, too.

They were hard to find, and hanging up. I asked a clerk, who, of course, had no idea what I was talking about. I just kept wandering around and found them.

I got the bag and the gift box. Like you, I don't care for the candy box. And I already have a sizzix die for a pillowbox.

Michaels has the envelope punch board, but not where I thought it would be. It's with the punches, which makes sense, but I was looking on the wall with the WRMK items.

I had realised the Gift bag, would be good for envelope making too. I love the idea of making the flaps with the punched edge, so ordered one.
Can't wait for it too arrive. I realised the envelope board does the candy box and the square box, now do I need the pillow box one or not...

How do you use the envelope punch for the box and candy box?
