Pootles’ Envelope Punch Board The UPSIZED Open Basket Tutorial

Pootles’ Envelope Punch Board The UPSIZED Open Basket Tutorial

Okay, so it may be 6 months since I created Envelope Punch Board Week, but I still see my original Open Basket recreated every other day, and almost as frequently, I’m asked if I could upsize it.

So my humble apologies for taking such a long time to do it, but…. Tra La! I have done it! There is still room for it to go bigger and bigger, as this is still only using an 8×8″ (20.3 x 20.3cm) piece of card…

I am still endlessly amazed at how versatile the Envelope Punch Board is, and I still love to make new and unusual boxes. And clearly you are too, as the Online Class is still very popular with new people getting access to it every week!

I don’t have my original basket that I created, I generally give away my projects, so that one isn’t here in the photos, but I did build another version of it, and as I was in a semi broody mood while moving small children’s bedrooms around, I made a baby version! This one uses Pink Pirouette DSP and the Fitting Occasion Stamp Set

And without further ado, my slightly upsized Open Basket video is HERE
