Happy Wednesday all. Today I have designed a wedding gift card holder out of an envelope that was in my kitchen junk drawer. Practical Scrappers June challenge is to use something you found in your kitchen to repurpose. I have these envelopes in my kitchen to hold coupons. Let me know what you think.
This started as an envelope measuring 6 1/4 x 4 1/4 inches. This is a standard size envelope in Italy. You can make yours any size you want.
I folded the envelope into a gate fold, meeting the two sides in the middle.
Then I cut the envelope flap where the folds were marked. Sealing the two side flaps and leaving the center flap open to make the pocket.
Decorate as you want. I made two panels for the inside flaps to cover where I had sealed the envelope flap and to give me a place to stamp my sentiments.
The Big Day and Congrats are on the cartridge Beyond Birthdays. Stampalicious stamps.
