I have made envelopes for years but usually out of boring old kraft or colored cardstock. You have inspired me to start using the papers in the Daphnes' Diary and Flow magazines have laying around. TFS!!
What a great idea to make envelopes out of a collage masterboard! I always regret tossing that tiny piece of pretty paper. I'll have to stick it somewhere next time.
As a teacher, I have made envelopes from printed templates with my scholars in the classroom. At home, I have made a few out of necessity for size or purpose, but haven’t embellished them. I love the creative twist you have shared. I would enjoy doing this! Thanks for the inspiration.
@@MarcellHobbs Hi Marcy, how are you? I’m glad you enjoyed it. I think there are so many different ways we can paper craft with what we already have on hand (although buying new goodies is also fun too!) I’m glad you enjoyed the video, and I’m thrilled to hear you are going to give it a go. Have a wonderful week 😊
@@fountainpensinksmore3290 Hi Jane, thank you so much for watching, definitely start making your own envelopes. I find once I start, I get into a groove with it. Have a great week my friend 😊
Great video Jayne! I love your envelopes and try to salvage them to “pay it forward” so to speak, as they are too beautiful to be a one time deal. I will cut them down for goodie envelopes or I use the paper in collages. Your envelopes have many lives! 😃💕Louise
@@coffeeteapaper hi Louise, I’m so glad they bring you joy as well as having multiple lives! I get great enjoyment out of sending mail and making it interesting. Thank you so much for watching my friend, I hope you have a wonderful week 🥰
Fascinating 🤩I looove snail mail and your collage envelopes look amazing. Thank you for this tutorial - you were perfectly clear and made complete sense as always. Normally my mother makes her own envelopes (which I pinch 😝), but now I have no excuse but to make my own.
I love your envelopes they're always interesting and thank you for the video. You show how easy it is to make your own envelopes. It is so rewarding as well. I have a pen friend who is wanting to make her own envelopes: I'll point her to this video. I'm always looking for interesting paper to make envelopes from.
@@raybuck Hi Ray, I’m glad you enjoyed the video and like your envelopes! Junk mail is a great way to start. Cut or tear images and just stick them to an A4 size piece of paper and once you think you have enough there, photocopy/scan it onto some paper and see how it turns out 😊
@@suista hi there, thank you so much for watching. The glue is called Tombow Mono. I bought mine on Amazon. It’s not cheap but as I said holds the envelopes together very well and a little goes a long way 😊
I love the scrap paper envelope ❤
@@leah_cartledge9639 hi Leah, I’ll have to remember to try and send you one in the future. Thank you so much for watching lovely 😊
