Love letters
Monday, February 26, 2007
I made this project a few weeks ago, just now getting chance to upload it. Its a mini book made from envelopes. This is a great project for those letters from a loved one, family, or a close friend. Its also a great project for kids! My project contains 5 envelopes and the way in which I made it I can add more should I want to! Its also worth noting that there are NO HOLES punched in the actual envlope. I got around this by adhering a folded cardstock "hinge" to each envelope and using that for the binding. Instructions are below, any questions feel free to email me
Supplies: crate paper - pp and alpha; maya road- ribbon, ghost flower;glitter; DCWV cardstock; chipboard; envelopes; buttons; UHU adhesive
You can use any size envelopes. I chose the long envelopes as that's what my letters were already in. This would work great with any size though! Just attached the hinges and allow for the extra 1"binding on the cover!Have fun!

Oh Di this is gorgeous!!!!!!
FAbulous idea! This would be a good way to store and display fabric postcards as well, since so many come "dressed' now in the mail--thank you!
