A card tip

I found that most of the times when I need to do a card I am usually in a hurry and to cut everything out from the base .. well not enough time. And I was bored with using the same ivory set I got from HL for quick cards. So I sat and pondered and saw that I usually like using black as the base or white sometimes. Ok maybe a red and blue and green and orange too. ha ha That's almost all the basic colors except yellow. So I decided  - why not do it ahead of time when I have the time on my hands. So I created the envelope first in the G file and pushed the circles for sizing it max and again pushed the tiny arrows till it went full (Plantin has a basic envelope and card) . Then using this as template designed the card on the next page. And cut them ahead of time. Now depending on my mood I just pick any colored card out and just cut the inside images.saves a little bit of time when we need it most.
