How to Make Customized Envelopes

I’ve always loved crafting. When I was younger it was paper scrapbooks made out of notebooks with magazine clippings in it. Now, it’s pretty much anything I can get my hands on!

I recently picked up a stencil for making custom envelopes and I can’t wait to show you how they turned out!

 Pick the size template you'd like to use. Trace the template on the back side of the paper - if it's a print, make sure you're aware of what way the design on the front is facing.

 Fold in the two sides and crease them on the fold.

 Fold up the bottom flap and crease it as well. Use your adhesive of choice to adhere the bottom flap to the side flaps. Be careful not to stick it to the inside of the envelope.

I don’t plan on making Christmas card quantities like this, but it is fun to make them for special occasions like birthdays, graduations, and anniversaries.
