Hello everyone! Seems like it’s been forever since I’ve been here to do a tutorial, so maybe just a bit of inspiration to give you today and then you can dive in and create your own mini. It’s just super easy so I will just share the basics and the links for these amazing envelopes from Lori. I started with Lori’s new Echo Park Special Delivery Baby Girl Collection, I used a bit of everything from this darling collection. Papers, card stocks, adhesive brads, chipboard, tags, ephemera, enamel dots, washi tape, the sticker book….yep, a bit of it all! I’ll go through it with you first and then we will look at how easy it is to create.
So pretty simple, just create a bunch of envelopes, add tags and inserts for each on and then secure with a book ring. The envelopes go together in now time. Just adhere on three sides to create each one.
After you get all of your envelopes cut and glued, stack them in the order you want and punch a hole with your hole punch in the same spot for all. I only used one binding ring to secure them. I just like the look of it, but two or three would be fun too.
Next, I created tags to add to every envelope so photos can be added on the front and back of each one.
For the Decorative inside envelopes, they are 4 x 5 1/2 inches with the corners rounded and eyelet on top with ribbon. The front cover envelopes has an insert tags that is 3×6 3/4 with corners rounded and the back cover envelope insert is 3.5×9 with corners rounded. I also added a photo mat to the front and back of each envelope so that lots and lots of pictures can be added to this.
Then just go to town with embellishing this fun little mini! I adore this and can’t wait to give it to friend for his new grand daughter.
The envelopes are listed below in the order I used, they are all linked to the Silhouette Online Design Store.
We are working on getting these cute envelope files uploaded to the Lori Whitlock SVG shop.
Thanks for stopping by and joining us for this tutorial!
This project is adorable and I am attempting to make one for my great niece. However, I am not able to find the Envelope #2 or Envelope #4 link. When I click, they simply take me to the top of the page. Could you please point me in the right direction. Thank you so much.
