So today I'm going to show you how to make your very own envelopes! I really haven't bought any envelopes after learning this. And you can make them out of any type of paper. Junk mail, newspaper, craft paper, ect ect. But today I'm using a magazine I found by the pool in my apartment complex. What a shame, do people not understand how expensive a magazine can be?
Little water damage, but all is good! |
- Things you need -
Paper source
Scissors
Glue of some kind
Luckily this magazine had tons of beautiful ads and model shots. So I just made the whole magazine into envelopes. Which made a lot! Now I would have shown more pictures, but I'm not that great with a camera. Plus taking a picture of each step would take a while. So I drew up a nice tutorial for you to look at! Enjoy!
Now this is just the basic design, you could take some fancy scissors to the cuts you have to make or anything you want really. I had some pics of the finished product....but I can't find them at the moment. I also pressed the finished envelopes under a stack of books for the night just to make sure glue really stuck.
Let me know how this works for you!
Awesome! I'll have to try this!
