DIY Envelopes

Next I went through my paper stash and found some patterned cardstock [Bo Bunny "Home Sweet Home"].

Carefully trace the envelope with a fine point pen.

Carefully cut out the envelope and glue the flaps up. Here are my finished envelopes…

Here are some other DIY envelopes ideas and techniques:
