hi everyone its Helen here and thank you
for joining me today so today we're
going to be making a wedding card so you
can put some money or a gift voucher in
here and I'll show you everything that
I've used in a moment so this is the
card it measures six by three and a half
and I've made a custom envelope for it
to go in and there's a pocket down at
the bottom here just to put some money
and some gift cards in so there's it's
this enough space in there for you to
put as much as you want in there within
reason okay so let's put that aside and
I'll quickly show you everything I've
used so I've used the Kristina
collection by card-making magic and this
set is called love and marriage and it
comes with a coordinating die set as
well so some of these stamps will fit
inside and some of these die cuts and I
cut your stamps so I absolutely love
this mr. and mrs. here I just love
anything to do with that
so moving on to make the slider part one
slide apart to make the pocket I have
used this round slider die here so I
haven't used anything else it's just
that one there so we're keeping it very
simple today and I've also used just for
these sentiment here that the circle is
on this stitched and pierced nesting die
circle set so I've used this one so I'll
pop that out so all the links will be
down below for everything that I've used
today so let's get started so I'm going
to pop you on to pass on to fast forward
in a moment on this and I've cut my card
stock out with you guys so we're going
to take an a4 piece of gray card stock
then I cut that at six and then we are
going to cut this one at ten and
three-eighths of an inch so that's one
two and three
okay so you're going to be using our
offcuts as well to help us with the rest
of the die-cutting so grab a scoreboard
and we're going to score at three three
and a half score at three and a half and
seven and that's it trying to put
everything away as I go because I don't
mean to end up a huge mess on my desk so
this length here is one eighth of an
inch shorter than a ten and a half
that's why it's ten and three-eighths of
an inch because we want to keep this
flap here
a little shorter so this card can close
properly otherwise you may have trouble
getting it to close so that's that done
and I've already pre-cut some cards here
so this is white card and this measures
I've lost some up here is is my ruler so
this measures five and three quarters by
three and one quarter and this one
measures 1/8 of an inch bigger so that's
five at seven eighths and three and one
two three eighths so these will stack
together perfectly

okay so that's our card mate so now I
just need to quickly show you how to do
the envelope it's really simple so
choose your paper we've got a stamp
spoke to there choose your paper
okay so I'm gonna be using the envelope
punch board and the measurement here is
three and a half by six so I need 8x8
piece of paper and I need to score at
one sorry 3 and 1/8 so I've lined up
here at 3 and 1 eighths punch and school
so now we're going to go by the line
that we've just scored you have to line
it up with this score guide here punch
and school so now we're just lining up
with the previous line that we just made
and there we go so put this back in need
that again in a second so we have our
sides here and our top and the bottom so
on the top end of the punch board we
have a corner rounder
so that was going to give us a nice
round shape so I'm going to do that on
the top and the bottom because the side
panels are going to be hidden using the
bone folder again from this or if you
have another favorite one just use that
one so for the low side thing ok so
we're going to add flou just to here and
here you can use wet glue for this or
you can use some double-sided tape I'm
just going to use some double-sided tape
edges to be fast
using tape press it down with a bone
folder it'll be easier for you to get
the backing off and it'll also make sure
that it gets full stack down to the
paper properly okay so that's our
envelope made and our if card holder so
we're gonna pop that in there and then
this is optional you can just finish it
off with a bit of ribbon as well so blue
down the M after you put your money and
glue it all down and then just tie a
ribbon on
there we go obviously you can spend a
bit more time making sure your ribbon is
absolutely perfect there we go you can
have that in the middle or on the side
so thank you for joining me today
