LEARNT SOMETHING NEW..

 Hello everyone,

It is a beautiful Monday morning, sun is trying real hard to shine, a gentle breeze and washing is wafting on the line..what more could you need?

How about letter envelopes, no glue, only for the decoration and even then you don't really have to,...this is a long post, lots of pictures and a link that hopefully works to my idol..

I was watching Natasha from Treasure Books  making these and was impressed and needed to have a go.

isn't this cute..

only paper folding and tucking..

so easy 

and cute..

O ne sheet A4 copy paper..

fold and score both sides into the middle..exactly the same..

Top fold down..

bottom fold up..

Tuck bottom into top

and done..

Go a bit further..emboss it.

So pretty..

Ink it..

and make a bunch of them..

You can turn your paper this way and get

Letter envelope like this..

time to decorate..

Bits of lace and book pages..just scraps..

layer them up..

I missed turning this picture and too lazy to go do it,

 so just turn you head to the side a bit..

So this one got a button..

a brad held this together,

 then glued the flower over the brad as it die cut with a hole in the middle..

same here..

and without a word of a lie, this lace fell out of this box

 as I lifted from the shelf and carried to the table and it is music lace

See..

so added this to the music paper one..

then there were five..

The music one opened up and you write your letter inside

 then close it up, or pop ephemera or small gift inside for a crafty friend...how fun..

and there they all are..

Thank you so much for stopping by..

Ill see you Wednesday for DT project..

luv CHRISSYxx
