No More Boring Envelopes looks like a wonderful way to make messages so much more special. I suspect sending envelopes addressed like this just may spark the recipient’s creativity to ensure an equally beautiful and exciting reply. Thanks for the great interview and very informative lesson. ~ Rose

Hello!! Love the envelope info! Thanks Becca and Laney!
I've always wanted to know this information. Thank you!
So helpful! Thank you for the tips!
All those envelopes were absolutely stunning!!! I’m wondering when you do a beautiful watercolor flower background or even use water based brush pens (like Tombows) to address, if there’s a way to ‘seal’ the ink so it doesn’t get messed up in the mail if it gets wet.
Thanks ladies, such pretty envelopes!
Thanks for sharing, lots of amazing tips!
Great tips! I'm curious about the envelop used on some of your examples. Are they see through? What kind of envelopes are those?
Thanks!! Love this video!

Great video!! Approximately how far apart are your lines or how wide are they? (top to bottom of each line) in case I missed it in the video! I see you have you Washi tape on the sides, is that what its for?
I was looking fir something like this to help me when mailing stuff to my Mom. Thanks
Thank you so much!
A manual laser level from black and decker is a good substitute but if you wish to use a little bit more money you can buy a laser square and mat by 'we are memory keepers' for 62 USD in EU or eBay.
So pretty!! Did she use scrapbook paper on the fronts of the envelopes to add color?
Thanks Ladies ! 😱
I’m still learning minuscules but I can’t wait until I can do this
Thank you for the information from Laney... and another instagram to check out!
I would use that light pattern as little footsteps walking across the envelope.
I'm confused about which circumstances require extra postage. If the envelope is square, do you add one extra stamp? What are other reasons?
Square envelopes always require extra postage (because they can't be machine read); other reasons extra postage may be required is due to weight. I'm not sure of the specific weight limits off-hand, but if I'm designing a suite, I always like to go to the post office and have them weigh a sample to make sure it's not going to go over the standard postage limit (or to just plan accordingly if so, and make sure we get enough postage to cover it).
It really depends on where you live, Pam. I'm in Canada and have never had a problem mailing square envelopes. Weight and size are for sure determining factors. You have to check with your postal department/agency for their rules/guidelines.

Thank you, very interesting... But first I must master Letterring !! ;)
ahahaha just realised you sad: a beautiful card with boring envelope or boring envelope with beautiful card. But thank you for this video as I'm gonna put more attention to envelopes :D Thank you for this video
How about beautiful envelope, beautiful card! Isn't it possible to have both?
Did I miss the return address?
what's with her voice?? croaky and straining - hard to listen to
Jessica Rabbit no worries, Jessica! You can always turn it off if it’s not for you :)
thanks for the advice - I thought you may appreciate some constructive feedback, I wasn't just being critical.
There's actually a term for that and it's called 'vocal fry'. Some people are just born with it. Either she has vocal fry or it's just a low-res streaming video and the sound sounds like she's under water a bit. ;)
