DIY Envelopes

Hi there! A little while ago I bought some adorable kraft envelopes that had a scalloped flap. They were so cute that I decided to use them as a template and make a few of my own envelopes. The first thing I did was carefully unfold the envelope [you can slide a knife along the glue if you need]. Next I went through my paper stash and found some patterned cardstock [Bo Bunny “Home Sweet Home”].

Carefully trace the envelope with a fine point pen.

Carefully cut out the envelope and glue the flaps up. Here are my finished envelopes…

Here are some other DIY envelopes ideas and techniques:
