DESIGN STUDIO IS A GREAT TOOL FOR SIZING CARDS TO ENVELOPES

IN THIS EXAMPLE I USED THE WILD CARD CARTRIDGE WHICH ACTUALLY CAME WITH MY EXPRESSION MACHINE AND I HAD FORGOTTEN HOW MANY CUTE PHRASES AND CARDS WITH ENVELOPES ARE ON IT.  THE PAPER IS SU, THE HEART IS CUT FROM THE LOVE STRUCK CARTRIDGE AND EMBOSSED WITH A CUTTLEBUG EMBOSSING FOLDER, FLORAL FANTASY.  THE RIBBON IS FROM WALMART.
USING DS I FIRST DESIGNED THE CARD TO BE 4" X 5".  USING THE 100% VIEW OPTION, I HELD THE CARD UP TO MY COMPUTER SCREEN TO FIGURE OUT HOW BIG TO MAKE THE ENVELOPE, USING THE FOLD CUT MARKS ON THE ENVELOPE TO FIT THE BODY OF THE CARD. THIS CAN BE A BIT TRICKY BUT IT DOES WORK, FOR THIS ENVELOPE I USED WC AGAIN AS WELL AS FOR THE SENTIMENT.  I CUT A MATCHING PRINTED SU PAPER TO PUT BEHIND THE HEART CUT OUTS ON THE FLAP OF THE ENVELOPE.
