I have this lovely embroidered handmade paper, that I have no idea where I got it. I bought it for Cmas scrapbooking a long time ago, and this summer, almost got rid of it when cleaning out my art room, but thankfully, decided to keep, as I got the idea to make envelopes from it!
It's not too flimsy either, and how lovely that it looks like trees! I add metallic watercolors to the circle parts, address the name in white with pointed pen, and sometimes, letter "O Cmas Tree" in the triangle space.
They're so lovely, huh? ;)
First one i created for Janet, this summer (for "Cmas in July!")
I did this one to rachael as a late "Cmas in July".
Again, no idea where i got this blue sample, but wish I knew where I could find more!
Failed attempt at trying to sew on my own. (I only know the basics of my machine)
One to Leanne, as she commented on ig that she liked (and hoped one would come her way).
To the employees at the NH po. Hate that I messed up Judy's name, but I spent so much time on the env. I didn't want to redo. (so, I tried to cover up with folded pen lettering)
Some close-ups:
I love this paper! Bought it years ago for scrapbooking (which I don't do anymore, as I moved everything online!) I almost got rid of it, but then decided to try and make envelopes with it. So fun.
