  • If you like making cards in all sizes like I do, then this simple Envelope Folding Technique is the only one you need to fit just about any size card you have to go inside!  This skill will produce envelopes from gift card size to as large as 8.75x6 inch and everything in-between.  You will be able to fold away your envelope crisis with a square piece of paper.  It's the method I use with great success and anyone can do it!.
  • This skill requires only 1 measurement and 4 folds.  Practice by using a ruler and a sheet of copy paper to learn the folds.  I go over the basics on the copy paper and demonstrate the concept of folding without complicated measuring and cuts.   The secret to the perfect fit is in the one measurement. Armed with that secret number and with just a bit of glue, you will have a finished custom size envelope!.
  • Once your master the folds in a few simple steps, you can then embellish to enhance your envelope and create a look that will coordinate with your card and gift as well.  Paper options include: scrapbook paper, decorative gift bag paper, gel plate art on tissue paper, book pages, music pages, and even gift wrapping paper!.
