Envelopes from Discarded Children's Book
Today I felt like replenishing my stationary stash with some envelopes made from a discarded children's book from 1962.
The envelope template kit from Paper Source is one of my favorite crafty tools. I have gotten so much use out of it!
I just love putting something handmade and one of a kind into the mail! Do you guys make your own stationary?
Those look so unique (in a totally fantastic way). Who wouldn't love getting one of these beauties in the mail?
ReplyDeleteOn a totally different subject, I finally got supplies to make a doily. I had a bunch of Grandma's hooks, but she stored them in an old olive jar. They smelled pretty bad so I must has tossed them out. Anyway got new ones and I plan to pick a pattern tonight. Wish me luck.
These are beautiful!! What a great way to recycle old books.
ReplyDeleteLove these envelopes!!! Now I'm really tempted to do some!!!

I love those envelopes, Kate! I really like the designs! I do the same thing, though I don't have a fancy template, I just opened up a few envelopes to draw around their shape onto cardboard and made my own! I just love home-made things which show that someone has cared enough to go to the trouble of preparing them!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely creative day! Sandra
