As I get ready to leave for Leadership tomorrow morning early, I am uploading my last entry until I come back on Sunday. I hope that Houston weather holds out and we get warm & sun (I dislike cold weather!)
This is what I lovingly refer to as a “cheap envelope trick” done with the SAB set “Very Punny”. The inside of this half sheet (cut 11 x 4 1/4 scored and folded) is two envelopes (office sized #10). This is one of my hostess gifts this month.
I love the new notecards (pg. 21)–what a cute idea to shut with a little slit! I didn’t realize until I got them that they had a flap and self closed. Someone at a workshop the other night told me that she makes jewelry and will use them to enclose her jewelry to sell! What a cute enclosure for a piece of costume jewelry as a gift for a little girl for Valentine’s day.
You can see other types of enclosures I have made with this “template” on my website “Project Gallery“
Hi,
I guess I’m a moron. Are the envies inside glued together in the middle of the fold? And also, is the cover folded over the top of one side and then velcroed? This is really cute, just blowin’ my mind!

I have the construction of it in more detail on my Project Gallery (see link in the article). Yes, the envelopes are glued together by a bit of mono, leaving the cut edges open (2 envelopes make 4 pockets). Yes, velcro holds it shut.

Hi Amy,
I love your envelope book but I’m sad because I cannot seem to find the suggested link in the project gallery with directions. Any suggestions?
THanks!

These are fabulous!!! I am so glad I found your blog. I love how you use the designer papers with the stamps so much. Nice kissing. These must be working out great and making all the workshop attendees jealous of the hostess, hopefully prompting them to book workshops. I think it’s great how you combined stuff from the SAB & winter mini and more.
