Upcycled Envies #3

Lets make more: back for round 3

For this swap you will be make a set of 6 handmade envies for 2 partners so a total of 12 envies.

The catch these envelopes must be made for old papers. Good paper to use are 2009 calendar, old cards, catalog pages, maps, old childrens books, wall-paper You are looking for glossy- thicker paper. Not newpaper, magazine paper or thin paper it will not hold up in the mailing process.

1.Make them a useable size for mailing not to small or to big. 2. It has to be made out of paper that is thick enough to mail (this is a big one)

These are a lot of fun to make and super easy.
