The cardstock I used is not available anymore. This is an alternate.
I like this better, because each side has its own color.

Thanks!
Welcome! Thanks so much for the support @joeb2147
What I love about watching your channel is the LB gems you drop along the way. "i then b" is gold.
Yeah, the videos are more about the process than the actual projects. I'm glad you get it!
Thank you, Rich. learned a lot from all your tutorials.
Thank you so much! 🙏
WOW! You did it again Rich. :)
Wow, thanks Bill!
Thank you for this lesson. I really like all your lessons. I am new to laser work and am using a diode laser. I will be making a custom card for my little brothers (70) birthday with an old pic of us as kids.
Awesome Richard! 👍 Thanks for watching!
Just what I been waiting to try! WOOHOO!
Awesome! 👍 Thanks for watching!
Rich you are the man thanks for everything you do for us
My pleasure!
I learn something on EVERY one of your videos. On this video, I learned way more than one: Warp, dash, and more.
Awesome! That's the goal! 👍 Thanks for watching!
Merci!
Thanks so much for the support!
Rich, thanks for another great video. Every time I watch (or re-watch) your videos I learn something new.
Awesome, thank you!
you made another beautiful video, great job as usual
Thank you very much!
Another great video 👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
hey rich
That's another educational video, for which we are very grateful.
it's always wonderful to watch your video and learn how and what to do.
greetings luc
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hello sir. Awesome video, I've learn so much just from your video after Ive watched a few times. Thank you and of course I stayed to the end 👍
Awesome! 👍 Thanks for watching!, again!
Another great video Rich I love all your video have learned a lot.
Glad to hear it!
Another great tutorial!! Thanks for your time!
Glad you liked it!
Your timing is excellent Rich! My wedding anniversary is tomorrow and I wanted to make a card for my bride of 37 years.
Tell her I said Happy birthday!
Thanks for all your work
My pleasure Jim!
Really nice and simple! Maybe I will make myself a card and give myself money for another laser LOL I never engraved cardstock just cut out intricate patterns so this will be something new for me to try :)
Go for it Mike!
Great tutorial Rich - thanks so much. I guess we could also flip the envelope once cut and engrave our return address on it.
Yes you can!
Thanks for the great video and the template library file.
Glad you liked it!
Thanks Rich
You're welcome! Thanks for watching! 👍
Thank you. I learn something new in every video.
Glad to hear it!

Have fun with it Jim!
loved that video - Im new to all this - so sooner than just jumping in I will continue to watch all your great videos. Thank you for sharing
Awesome! Thank you John!
I’m glad I’m not the only one that makes mistakes good video
I'm an expert at that! 🤪
Always learn something from your videos.
Thanks
Glad to hear it!
Excellent video. As new owner of Mk2 20w it was nice to see the settings you use for this project
Glad you enjoyed it!
Just got my laser and made a card out of wood that is assembled but want to make cards going forward. This is awesome!!! My fear is learning the library tests for different materials like card stock. Also I can use this for stencils with my model trains!
Go for it!
thanks great video as always
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wonderful job!! Thanks for
Thank you too!
That is just such a neat project. Can’t wait to give to try it.
Have fun with it John!
Nice job. I always pick up some new tips. One suggestion, fold side tabs in first and maybe round top of those tabs to match bottom fold up piece.🎉
Good tip, thanks!
Thanks
Welcome! Thanks so much for the support!
Always great video! Have you seen the New Genmitsu L8 All-In-One Laser Machine?? Cant wait to see a review?
I've seen it but they haven't contacted me yet.
Awesome! I really want to say that you work so hard to make videos for us , thank you so so so much !
Glad you like them!
Saludos desde México
Thanks for watching!
Great video as always. The video length is never an issue with me when the content is top notch. I am going to add our return address on the envelope and when I fold it I will fold it towards the back so the address is on the front. Also something I do with paper and gluing is to put the folded/glued side on parchment paper and put a book on top. Do something else and in a minute or so it's good.
Awesome, thank you for the tips!
THANKS
You're welcome!
Cover the area of honeycomb outside the card stock with more paper and the partial pressure created by your exhaust fan will hold the card stock down.
Magnets are much easier Sam.
If your honeycomb is attractive to magnets.
Yes, I addressed that in the video Sam.
Unfortunately for me, my honeycomb is indifferent to magnets. I did make some clips from paper clips and they work well enough.
I did not miss you placing magnets to hold the card stock down.
GREAT VIEDO.
Awesome! 👍 Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video! My question is how did you get that color from the green card stock without it being blackened by the laser?
Like I said in the video, experiment with power and speed to get different colors. This one was done at a very low power and very high speed, so all it did was remove the die from the paper.
@@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy Thank you! I will give it a try.
Awesome video
I watched the entire video but I didn't see your special message on the bottom of the screen.
Check again... it's there a couple of times!
My Library tab is missing from window, how do i get it.
I dont know if its ever been there.
My light burn was just downloaded Dec 2024.
Click on Window --> Library
@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy it's not there though. I am still using trial, is that why?
No Kay, the trial is the full version. It's a tab that appears on the right side of the screen. If you click, Window --> Library, and there is a *check mark* next to it, but you still can't see it, you're likely using a laptop with a screen resolution of less than 1920x1080.
@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy will check my resolution.
My laptop is new, I am running win11.
Everything else is there..
@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy that's what my resolution is, 1920x1080.
I am not seeing it under the window tab, I see Art Library and Material library but not Library.😫
mY WIFE ANDi WANT TO GET A LASER CUTTER AND WE WANT TO BE ABLE TO CUT .125 AND .25PLYWOOD WOULD YOU TELL ME WHAT WATTAGE WILL IT TAKE TO DO THIS THANKS jEFF PETERS
20, 30 or 40W will do fine.
WHICH LASER CUTTER WOULDYOU RECOMMENED THANKSJEFF PETERS
WOULD YOU HAVE A RECCOMMEND FOR A TABLE TOP LASER CUTTER IN THE 40 WATTRANGE IT UNDER$1500 PRICE
How do I put a cutting
Don't understand the question.
Thanks Rich. Now how much postage?😂😂😂
These days? $22!
oooh could have recovered from the tear if you'd put glue on the outside of the flaps and glued the bottom on top of them
The flap was damaged too. But it didn't fit right anyway, so I had to do a new one.
Yeh my bad, I commented before the next bit :D
Turn the envelope "inside out", and make your folds the other way, and the tears will be on the inside with a perfect outside surface.
What part of Louisiana are you in?
Just south of New Orleans.
Great video and well executed - I am not a business or anything like that I have the Sculpfun S9 5.5W laser (all standard). I just love to watch your video's / tutorial's - very easy to watch and understand - I will give this a go and send my wife a Christmas card this year, (there is a first for everything lol). Keep up the great work 👏👏👏
Awesome! 👍 Thanks for watching!
Fold the envelope in the other direction and it will hide the tears. I think, LOL
Kinda late for the comment, but it might help others.
Thanks for the comment!
At 32 mins, you show us and say "cutting the perforation square" (rectangle). Lightbulb moment!
So rather than build that rectangle with four separate lines, and node editing the rest of the envelope, weld the envelope front, back, and flaps first. Now create the green rectangle at the four inside corners, then increase green rectangle ht/wt dimensions.
Thanks Bob!
I am in the process of making a junk journal using my laser cutting all the paper/card stock
Awesome! 👍 Have fun!
Awesome, as always. Thanks for all you do Rich.
Much appreciated!
