Great question, Connie and Welcome to Membership!! For my mini slimline cards I size them so they will fit in a standard #6 envelope. This is a size you can find almost anywhere (walmart, dollar tree, office max, etc.) - it is the smaller of the 'business sized envelopes' they sell in boxes. I get mine at Dollar Tree, here is a link (non-affil.) www.dollartree.com/mead-no-675-white-envelopes-40ct/192699 They are nothing fancy, but get the job done in getting the cards to their final destination. ;) If you are looking for colorful or better quality ones, I think some stamping companies sell them as well. So glad you like the new sketch and thanks for watching! :)
That's such a good idea, thank you! I have a ton of sparkly nail polish from when I was a teenager that doesn't work that well anymore as actual nail polish but would probably be fine on paper.
I haven't made many slimline cards because I don't need any more scraps😏so I may try one of these with some scraps I already have. It's a lovely card and the process is so easy to follow under your guidance--ha! Looking forward to checking out your collaborator submissions.
Loved theses have just made lots with grandchildren they really loved the little envelopes, they put little notes in them . .Watching with kids and they love how you say SeDements, for the word SenTiment ,I had to replay so many times as they now are saying it the same way..thank you for sharing your card making.
Thank you for your process, my mind is not wired to how to figure out the best way to cut the Cardstock. I do enjoy the visual archive as a channel member. I have a mini envelope die I can use. There is a way to cut the envelopes free hand too. Love these super cute cards.
Fabulous cards Alicia 😻 I love your sheetload of cards design, the pattern papers and your cute envelopes ❤️ thanks for sharing your creativity Hugs xx
Hi Alicia. Another fabulous video. I love the cards with the heart paper and heart envelopes. The sentiment is gorgeous and that stickles heart is so precious. It all just comes together to create that "in love" feeling. TFS. 💙💯🤗
As usual Alisha, your Sheet load of cards design is the bomb. Look forward your every month and because of it my card supple increases every month for sure. Have a blessed New year.
Do you know how many times I've messed up scoring and folding my mini slimline card bases? Let's just say I ran out of fingers AND toes to count. Thanks for that simple tip on scoring using the score buddy! It most certainly will help! I just love those cute little envelopes! 😍
Love the cards, just wanted to say thank you for the card you sent, it was a lovely surprise ❤ as I am based in the UK. Happy New Year to you and the family xx
Welcome - I hope you will subscribe and hang out for a while :) I just get the standard #6 3/4 envelopes that are widely available. They aren't fancy, but they get the job done. Here is what I buy from Dollar Tree (non-affil.) www.dollartree.com/mead-no-675-white-envelopes-40ct/192699
Thanks so much for watching and the 'congratulations'! I was going to wait to announce until I was 'safely' over my goal - you know how those numbers can changes ;)
they sure are - but keep in mind the same 'rigidity' and 'lumpy' rules will apply and may cost more. they fit in standard #6 3/4 envelopes you can find almost anywhere (walmart, office max, dollar tree). the envelopes may not be fancy, but they get the job done ;) Here are the ones I buy at dollar tree www.dollartree.com/mead-no-675-white-envelopes-40ct/192699 I hope you will give this size a try :) Thanks for watching!
I use standard #6 3/4 envelopes for my mini slimline cards - they can be found lots of places as they are a very standard size. Here is what I buy from Dollar Tree (non-affil.): www.dollartree.com/mead-no-675-white-envelopes-40ct/192699
You probably explained it before but what's the difference between a mini slimline and the slimline? Love your cards and I'm glad I'm back, Nicole - PS I have that paper pad too! Both in 12x12 and 6x6. I usually use it for my husband...
A great paper pad to use for your husband - I wish I would have gotten it in 6x6 too. :) Slimline seems to be a standard 3.5" x 8.5" when folded and there seems to be LOTS of different preferences for Mini Slimlines. I like to make mine 3.25" x 6.25" when folded so they will fit in the standard #6 3/4 envelopes that are widely available. Hope that helps!

I’m pretty new to his- with the mini slimline - are they mail-able or are they better for hand delivery? Thanks so much for such detailed instructions- being new it helps so much!!
As long as it meets weight and thickness rules, these mail for a first-class stamp within the U.S. I just get cheap business envelopes from Dollar Tree: www.dollartree.com/jot-standard-press-and-seal-mailing-envelopes-362-x-650-in-40-ct/375769 (non-affil.) It is a size you can find in many stores. Hope that helps.
Karen, I say give the envelopes a try with the regular one. I think the biggest difference will be the size of the notch that gets punched before scoring. I have had quite a few people ask about this, so I may try to make a quick video showing both ways. The strips inside are about 1/2" wide and 4.25 & 5" tall. Hope that helps and thanks for watching! :)
UA-cam decided to make some layout changes and it made getting to the description box a bit less easy :( Are you watching on mobile? If so, I have found clicking on the video title, usually makes it a bit easier to pull up. Then when you see a bit of the description box text, you can click on that to expand. Hope that helps.
Hi Crafty Al - Hopefully you will see this and be able to answer my question. I am subscribed to your channel, but when I click on the #SLCTJan2023 sheet load of cards, it does not take me to the printable download. What am I doing wrong?
Barbara, I give instructions in each of the Debut videos on the 1st where to find the download link. That video is linked in the description box. The hashtag (#SLCTJan2023 this month) is just so you can see what the Collaboration team has created - it should pull up their videos. Feel free to reach out at the email in the description box if I can help you any further. Happy crafting! :)
Helen, you sure can. These fit in standard #6 3/4 envelopes that can be found almost anywhere (walmart, dollar tree, office depot, etc.). Here is a link to what I buy from $ Tree - they aren't fancy, but they get the cards to their destination ;) www.dollartree.com/mead-no-675-white-envelopes-40ct/192699
Love this sketch! This is a fun, fresh card. One question, where do I find envelopes to fit this size card? I'm new to slimline cards.

@@CallMeCraftyAl Thank you for the suggestions! I will definitely look for that #6 size.
My Dollar tree has them and my Wal Mart has them. Watch out, some have an ugly (security) lining as these used to be called check envelopes.
Cute Valentines!!! Nice and easy sketch 😊 Hugs....Janie
Glad you like the new sketch - thanks for watching! :)
I love slimline cards, and these are very pretty for Valentine's Day! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for watching and your kind words :)
Such fun Valentines Day cards!♥️

Amazing cards- I can’t wait to try making slim line cards
Happy crafting! :)
Great cards!!! I am about 2 hours away from finishing my 65 Valentine's day cards. I mail a few, and give 60 to women at church.
That is A LOT of Valentines! How fun you have so many people to share them with :) Thanks for watching.
Love this set of cards Alicia! Great sheetload!

Awesome card idea , thank you for sharing !!!
Thanks so much for watching :)
That envelope is so cute !!!! We always love the miniature of everyday things. Thanks for a cute and fun card as always you are a master!
Mini things are some of my favorites - especially little shoes ;) Thanks for watching!
Really cute. Just a note. If your in a rush then try some sparkly nail polish instead of stickles. No waiting overnight for it to dry.
Stickles doesn’t take overnight.
That is a great idea - thanks so much for sharing :)
That's such a good idea, thank you! I have a ton of sparkly nail polish from when I was a teenager that doesn't work that well anymore as actual nail polish but would probably be fine on paper.
Great idea!!!
Lovely cards.
Thanks so much! :)
Very cute cards!
Thanks so much! :)
these are adorable! I think I even have that envelope punch board :)
I hope you make some of your own tiny envelopes :) Thanks for watching!
I don't usually do slim line cards but these are so cute. I spent the afternoon pulling paper and cutting them. Tomorrow will be assembly.
I hope you had fun putting yours together! Thanks for watching :)
@@CallMeCraftyAl I did. I posted them on instagram. Hope I got the hashtag right.
