Box Envelope by Jacqui McCully
today seeing i made my mum a beautiful card 5 inches square with the flower it made it a bit tight to place in the envelope so decided to make my own envelope to suit .
to close your envelope there are many ways i have added ribbon under neath ,before adding the patterned papers ,
green cardstock, bought at bargain plus at springwood
2 sheets of Kaisercraft mint wishes green spot but you can have what ever, my mum loves green any type of green
here are my measurements
cardstock is cut to 7 " x 12 inches,
you can follow the pictures to get idea where to cut off ,
I was going to corner round the top but it was not in its usual place ,after completing this i now find it in the top drawer , i never keep it there . lol
score at 3/4 " , 1 " , 6 1/8 and 6 1/4 " turn envelope
score at 2 3/4" 3 ". 8 1/8 " and 8 5/8"
make crisp edges ( fold close an reopen)
for the patterned paper
cut 2 pieces to 3 1/4 x 4 3/4" tape to both sides at top of the envelope
2 1/2"x 4 3/4" ( flaps )
1 @ 3" x 4 3/4 inside of envelope ( centre to the top inside of envelope_
1 @ 2 1/4 x 4 3/4"
1@ 4 3/4 x 4 3/4 " front of your envelope, any scraps for writing address on
