These are great! I recently received a large junk mail envelope that holds an 8 1/2x11 letter. I am trying to find ideas for how I can use it. I will definitely be watching more of your older videos for more inspiration.

      Janet, I had a pad with lined paper and you can use notebook paper, ledger paper or whatever you have. Tfw💕
