Get Well with SSInkspiration Sept. Card Sketch Challenge

Ok, ok, so I'm a bit late with starting challenges for this week, but late than never I always say!!  With training for a half marthon (I run on Tues., Thurs., Sat. and long runs on Sun.), plus oldest son has JV football practice every day and on top of that, my younger son also has football practice three days a week.  I am just run ragged these days and I live out of my car now (not my craft room), which is very disturbing!  Its like saying "sorry honey, I just drank the last bit of coffee", and to anyone who knows me AT ALL, knows that you don't come between me and my COFFEE!!!!  Any who, where were we, oh yea, my challenge.

I wanted to start some different challenge sites and thought I'd give Stylin' Stampin' Inkspiration a try.  Head on over and check it out and join in the fun!  http://ssinkspiration.blogspot.com

How to Make Insert for Pointy Envelope Using the Envelope Punch Maker

 start out with a piece of DSP that measures 7-1/2 x 7-1/2".  You could make it larger but I wanted plenty of room for redline tape to seal envelope shut without getting on the DSP.
 You will place the paper in to line up with the 3-3/4" line at top of envelope punch maker just the the measurement chart on the front shows.
 You will punch and score all four sides as if you are making an envelope.
 Once that is complete, place the paper inside your paper cutter and line up from corner to corner.
 Cut directly in half and you will end of with two pieces as picture shows above.
 Use your scissors to cut the two flaps off of each side as shown in picture and the middle piece is the insert for your envelope.  The bottom piece just shows where I have not cut the flaps off yet.
This shows the insert inside of the envelope. 
Hope you found this easy and are ready to go out and make your own.
