Hip-hippo-ray! This Pun Fun Stamp Set is Purrrfect. I made this card kit last year and wanted to show you a nice ribbon-finishing technique.
I used a 3/4" and a 1/2" punch to make the little circles for card front as shown above. Position and glue circles to front of card. Examples below show the inside of a card... After circles are in place, punch a 1/8" hole in center of circles. Thread ribbon into hole, trim and glue down on inside of card. Punch 1" circle in matching card stock color and slit edge with scissors. Glue on top of ribbon spot for nice finished look.
This simple folder with inside pockets holds 4 cards and 4 envelopes. (The navy blue dotted paper is now retired so I'm going to redo this kit using the #115684 Bermuda Bay Patterns Designer Series Paper and coordinating colors of card stock.)

When I look at this 4-card set, it brings back memories. My husband and I went on a cruise to Alaska, and I took along a little box of Stampin' Up! supplies to make this kit. As I sat on the outside deck watching for real whales in the ocean, I watercolored my little Pun Fun whale. It was a heavenly day.
