With Island Indigo card stock (#122923), a favorite blue of mine, as the base, this card is longer than most. It's ideal to hold Money or Gift Certificates, presenting them like the wonderful gift that that is!
The major down side to creating a larger or unusual card size is the ability to locate a proper sized envelope that is affordable! I have the SOLUTION for That!! The new and awesome Envelope Punch (#133774) provides me with the ability to create up to 66 different sizes of envelopes!! (Whoop! Whoop!!) This affordable punch is easy to store and use... creating envelopes of every color or pattern that I want, and unusual cards, file folders, gifts and more!
With quick and easy directions, measurements laid exactly where I need them, I'm always able to create an envelope that coordinates with my project, quickly and easily! See HOW with this fun video!

Using the Winter Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper (#132341 Holiday catalog pg. 29) I used these silver foil accented pages that remind me of a fancy tie. Wrapped in a coordinating piece of Winter Frost paper for a fun and funky envelope - a built in liner due to it's being double sided!
Adding a dash more of silver with our Silver Foil Sheets (#132178 pg. 28 Holiday catalog) that I embossed using the Stylish Stripes Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (#132174 Holiday pg. 22) and my Big Shot Die-Cutting machine (#113439). This card should shine, like the special day it's celebrating!
Heat Embossing Silver Embossing Powder (#109131) this pin striped Cycle Celebration stamp set (#130273) for a coordinated and fun vibe on top of the Island Indigo. Our Versa Mark pad (#102283) and Heat Tool (#129053) allow this cool look, quickly and easily! Punch it out with our Decorative Label punch (#120907) for an easy accent and greeting!
Adding fun accents with our adhesive backed Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#119246) continues with the richness of this card.
Don't you love it when a man is pulled together. I love looking at old photos of men in pin-striped suits... so go ahead, celebrate the men in your life! Imagine that diamond pinky ring (ok, so I love a good mafia movie, shoot me - or not - lol).
Pull a card together with a fun envelope that hints at what is inside. YES - You Can send a patterned envelope! This punch allows you to create mail-able envelopes that stand up to the test of the USPS processing - lol. Adding a White Label that clearly shows the address and recipient allows them to process this fun gift! Send money (green and always usable) or create a custom gift certificate - for a visit, a date, a massage, a meal... and warm their hearts with your thoughtfulness!
