The New Stampin' Up Envelope Punch Board is Available!

Did you know you can order the new Envelope Punch Board?!?!  I have mine but I haven't had a chance to get it out to play with it. Here's the info!
It creates totally customizable envelopes in up to 66 different sizes (not to mention a million different color and pattern options depending on the paper you want to use). Even tried and true envelope sizes will only take you moments to create!
It's super easy to use;
It's small and lightweight;
It even has a slick scoring tool as well as a punch that lets you create rounded corners on your envelopes.
It's easy to keep it all together; the stylus storage compartment and two punches are designed into the tool so you don't have a bunch of little pieces to keep track of (even the instructions are printed right on the tool so you won't lose them!).
The price is terrific-especially for a tool that does so much!
It will be in next year's annual catalog, so it's here to stay.
